Any thoughts on how I can achieve this?

I think you should manually set different volume labels at least on USB stick or use UUID in extlinux.cfg.

Excellent!

If you do let me know

I don't plane anything in this area in near future. Custom compile works as confirmed by one user few weeks back.

Check with

LibreELEC-ultra:~ # grep -i edid /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[2982095.786] (**) NVIDIA(0): Option "CustomEDID" "DFP-0:/storage/.config/edid.bin.ultra2.TX-SR508_1920x1080"

You need to compile libreelec with my stuff.

But yesterday I was thinking to move all this to addon. Then it would be little easier to manage... Maybe one day

Do you see new Kodi share in windows explorer?

Do you see new kodi share in windows explorer? If only hidden files are problem then you need to enable to see them somewhere in windows explorer.

Addon you found does nothing itself - it is part of my tslib solution to manage touchsreen. But for this you need special image with this included. In the past I build images from time to time but I don't do that anymore for a different reasons.

Calm down

You could of saved time by just saying there isnt any.

You want tutorial? In this case you are out of luck. Mostly because no one is taking time to make a wiki note. As usually it is mostly take actions and not giving back

There is OE wiki entry and also this. But outdated.
Just start looking how other addons are made and start working on yours. If this is to hard then I assume whole addon idea is to hard for you also.

stuCONNERS, look how one existent addon is made and then make yours based on others.

I dont think there should be any issues.

I think there is no MBR anymore. But it boots because syslinux is actually installed on first partittion. Just guessing but I'm still glad you solve the issue.

Code

sudo dd if=/dev/sdX1 of=/media/sda1/usb-stick.img bs=4M
sudo dd of=/dev/sdX if=/media/sda1/usb-stick.img bs=4M
sudo rm /media/sda1/usb-stick.img

what this does, is copy the USB Stick as image to the HDD, then rewrites this image onto the USB stick.

No, it copies first partititon of USB stick to HDD and then copies it back as whole disk. Meaning you lost MBR, partitions table, second partition.

I think if you would delete EFI folder on a USB stick then stick doesn't have any EFI boot capability.

Quote from NortheBridge

such a small distribution (as is OpenELEC)

Small in what way? As file size or user base?

Known problem and we are working on it.

So it is harmless then
