OK I got help on this.
For alaska revisted you can download it directly then unzip it then stick it in XBMC via an ssh connection with something like cyberduck.
This worked fine then, although the ATV with anything approaching a complex skin is so slow as to be useless, the loading of thumbs is especially disappointing and infact I had to return to using conflunece.
the ATV2 is hitting eBay tonight. Technically (as usual) Davillia has hit the highs for skills, but sadly ATV2 in my house is very disappointing. So I shall return to my mini.

Thanks for that
Do you mean unzip it on the pc 1st? What folder would I put it in?
Are there any other skins you can do that with? I was preferably looking for aeon nox

You don't need to unzip it, just upload the zip file to your ATV2, put it in /var/mobile/ or somewhere you can see from the filesystem and then you go to install add-on from the ATV2 menu and select the zip file.

Also SLik and ZStream both seem to work ok, Aeon seemed extremely slow for me.

No, unzip the folder and install it into your adons folder manually.
If you just upload the zip then it says missing dependancies

Quartz is very snappy on Atv2. And compatible with both Dharma and nightly builds.

With dirty regions being worked in, you would be a fool to sell it now. We will be seeing drastic performance increases from that alone.
