well, turns out, it couldnt be easier.

download firmware.rar file, exract it - its an .ird file.

format a usb disk to fat32, copy .ird file to root of usb stick

boot up STB

insert usb disk...wait 5 seconds....

a message comes up telling you the existing firmware on the STB and the firmware it found on stick (newer on the stick hopefully)

press red button to download \ update.
