Night 2.0 - Eden Development

This is by far my favorite skin to date (and i've tried a few).

Just wanted to know if this will eventually make it into the official XBMC Repo. I've noticed now 2 eden beta's and actually installed it on a new HTPC but was dissappointed to not see Night listed

skabyss Wrote:I was annoyed by the volume bar not working in the eden build, so I looked into it and learned it was just a matter of changing the volume progression from [-60,0] to [0,100]. The following code should make it work fine, just paste it over the contents of the DialogVolumeBar.xml in the skin's folder and save it.

Hopefully next I can figure out what is causing the "new music widget" to display individual songs instead of whole new albums.

Code:

When you say it wasn't working, what was the problem you were having? After the first time I adjusted the volume, the volume slider in the OSD audio settings was constantly resetting itself to -60db. Is that what was happening to you? I am trying your fix to see if that helps me.

is this ready for eden beta 2?

i actually downgrade to dharma official to get this showing up in add ons. was not showing on eden beta 2.

no progress since July 2011

I used to love Night, but it seems to have fallen out of active development for the time being.

I loved being able to have easy access to smart playlists from the Movies and TV smartlists, though. I found that Cirrus does this pretty well, so I guess I'll use that for now.

i downgraded from eden beta to dharma just to keep using this

I stuck with Dharma and Night for as long as I could. Finally, the desire for the latest features and add-ons getting a little too querky (mainly PseudoTV on both counts) forced me into the Eden Betas.

I tried Cirrus, but just couldn't get into the look of it. I want a skin which isn't too vanilla like Confluence, but still has an out-of-the-box web appliance feel, which I don't get looking at Cirrus.

I now use Neon which is good, but it's just not Night. It offers a number of the the same features, in additon some extras, but I'd gladly give them up for an Eden version of the genuine Night skin.

Loved it, hope to see it soon.....

don't night work on eden? i used it on the nightlies before.

is this skin no more in active development?

ok possibly a dumb question, but where can I access "Programs" in the this skin? I want to use NaviX for some of my content - i have installed it but I cant find the "Programs" menu item in this skin to access it.
