Building on Windows – CMake Errors

What's required to build this add-on on Windows, and then integrate it into a Kodi instance? I'd like to take a stab at fixing a few issues, but I haven't gotten it to build.

I have cloned the repo from https://github.com/kodi-pvr/pvr.hdhomerun.git and attempted to follow the instructions.
I have VS2015 Professional installed (14.0.25431.01 Update 3) and cmake 3.7.2.


In the output from the command-line build is the following text, then report of the error at the very end of the run.

Code:

Using the "ALL_BUILD" target in the IDE shows some errors that may be meaningful:

There aren't any errors in that log file.

Any clues as to what I have missed?
