I thought abouot something like this once before, and now you've made it! Excellent.

Is it compatible with:
Dharma Beta 3 (XBMCFreak)
Aeon MQ2

Also, not sure if it could be a conditional rule, but would it be possible to play the theme at a lower volume? I would want it to be more like "browsing" music, rather than theme tune playing at the full volume.

Great work

Thanks

its working with

Night skin > xbmcFreak Beta3...

the volume is rather high for these.
I can try and use a program in windows to lower the volume of each theme song.

what if i put a setting ?

you choose beetween 0-100 the volume you want theme to be playing?

(i would like to set a downvolume auto, but seems we can't know the current volume, or i didn't find it)

Amazing if you do. Should be low level volume. In some skins max volume is 0.0db, so why not downvolume auto to -10.0db or such? My XBMC volume is always full, i use TV volume to control the level, so halfing the XBMC volume fot theme should work in my case. (HDMI passthrough to TV only)

Maybe allowing a selectable volume level may work, so people with 5.1 etc can set a level that works best for them etc.

i can't refer to current playing volume because i can't get this information from xbmc, so all i can do is put a setting to set the volume at XX percent when playing theme.

xbmc.getInfoLabel('player.volume') will sorta work - you'll get it in the format
Code:
case PLAYER_VOLUME:
    strLabel.Format("%2.1f dB",...);
    break;

This is really cool - some sort of fade in / fade out would probably be awesome.
