Note: Aeon Nox 4 is too heavy.
Thanks!

I'll have a look into that. I did like a lot of features in Aeon Nox 4 but way too heavy for an RPi. Just tried it quickly on my work PC (a fast Windows 7 PC so I can't judge it's RPi performance) and I like what I see, especially the large writing in file lists...(I do miss the info text in the OSD info page of Amber though)

You have to install it by zip file if you are running OpenELEC. Also takes quite a long time to install...
Btw, I still think Amber is a better, faster skin - but it's nice to freshen things up with a new skin from time to timeBig Grin

I have just installed aeon nox 5 beta 3 and it runs perfectly and it is much quicker and smoother than amber. Thanks to the developer of the skin.

Raspberry Pi B rev 2 512MB
Only Estuary or Confluence are satisfactory, I have found so far.

I have to say, if you're still using a Raspberry Pi 1 rev B, you're in for a treat if you upgrade to a Pi3 or a Pi4. So much faster!

Personally I would go with a Pi4 (I have!) even though the software is a work in progress. It's stable enough for daily use and then some!

I got a Pi4 for Christmas and I've done a lot with it. It's my NAS, it runs Kodi for one tv, it's my daily linux dev box, and it's my DNS pi-hole. The older Pi1 runs kodi on another TV, and is a colored light for each week day.

More or less, I posted for posterity.
