I love the way this skin looks in the trailer, but I haven't been able to install it, can't figure out how to do it from within XBMC, so I downloaded from here:
http://www.themurrayworld.com/xbmc/night/skin.night.zip
unzipped and put in folder like this:
C:\Users\ASROCK\AppData\Roaming\XBMC\addons
and also tried like this
C:\Program Files (x86)\XBMC\addons\skin.night

But the skin still isn't displaying as an option, what am I doing wrong?


- ppic - 2010-09-05

what version of xbmc are you running?


- KOROR - 2010-09-05

Running latest version (XBMCSetup-Rev31520-dx.exe) from here: http://dsplayer.passion-xbmc.org/

I notice the zip has skin.night inside it make sure your dont have skin.night/skin.night in your adddons directory.

No clue why I have that skin.night on my server, it's an old version of Night anyways(7-22). Why not just install via addons in XBMC.

Or ppic and the XBMC-Passion site compile all skins every day, you can download a .zip of the 10.5 compatible Night - HERE

Hi, i installed Night from current Dharma Addons and wanted to try the extrafanart. When i select the tv show (with the extrafanart) in xbmc the fanart that where set for this tvshow, before i activated extrafanart-Feature, is show'n for about 1/4 Second. Then it cycles through the extrafanart that i prepared. That always happends when i switch the shows and select the one with extrafan.

I hope i discriped it understandable. Do u have that too? Can i Fix it?

I tried installing through add-ons, but couldn't find an option to do so, how does it work?


- Maxoo - 2010-09-05

Settings -> Addons -> Official repo -> skins -> Night.

I think I read that the "Get more" button is broke in beta1, but yea go through
Settings -> Addons -> Official repo -> skins -> Night and you should be good...

I think it's more dependent on what the "default" fanart is. Like for me this one is really noticeable. Most of my other shows/fanarts I barely, if at all, notice the transition.

It's just one of those things that happen when something isn't supported by XBMC by default...


- KOROR - 2010-09-06

@Ram2000 I unzipped the winrar file and put the folder skin.night in the addons folder C:\Users\ASROCK\AppData\Roaming\XBMC\addons

@mcborzu and Maxoo:
When I go in Add-ons in the XBMC software, I have Get Add-ons option, if I choose I get All Add-ons and XBMC.org Add-ons options, in both of those the only Add-ons are: Album-, Artist-, Movie- and TV Add-ons. Inside those there are only Add-ons like Amazon and so on, so no skin options.

I will try donwloading the combines skins from here and give it a go: http://passion-xbmc.org/index.php?PHPSESSID=15h3nvponortirbku137m35i50&action=downloads;sa=downfile;id=102

you should refresh the addon repo, you must have a skin section in it.


- KOROR - 2010-09-06

Somehow it refreshed itself, thank you for your help :-)

This probably isn't the place to ask things of this nature.
If you have questions about the addon manager you should probably make a thread in the right area of the forum.
