It's on the passion-xbmc.org repository now (see link on first post). I have a bunch of cleanup and dialogs to get done before I submit to the official repo again.
Thanks

The fonts will not be correct, but it should get me the debug info I need. Just post the screen shot when done.
Thanks,
Hi Stoli,
Here is the result !
- stoli - 2010-12-19
@jeepcook - I'm going to suggest downloading the skin again. That section of code between Night and Neon is virtually identical with some minor font differences. Other than that, there is no reason it should not be displaying that I can see.

tormi Wrote:1. Profiles
Is it not possible to switch between profiles or am I doing something wrong? I get the shutdown/restart menu when I try to exit but no switch profile alternative. I need this because I switch between my profile and my kids profile.
I believe you have to log out to switch; I don't believe you can actively switch between profiles.
Edit: It seems if you know the names of the profiles to switch between this can be done. See the post here: http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=61779
Minor update today:
Profiles view skinned
File Manager view skinned
Addons view fixed
Font fixes
Added plot display to Slim Files view after a 7 second delay
Adjusted checkmark for Slim Files to fix overlap

How do I launch Home Cinema Experience from Neon?

@kaiser423: Info > Theater button.

ok, mine's not showing up there, at least I know something's wrong now and can go from there. Thanks!
- stoli - 2010-12-20
I only added support for it in the last week or so, if you haven't updated lately it may not be there.
- Harro - 2010-12-20
You need to go into settings/skin/general and enable the Home Theater Script. That will put a theater button in th einfo screen of movies.
- stoli - 2010-12-20
Good catch Harro. I'll update it so it displays anytime the script is installed.

Wow. Very nice skin. Actually seems better than Nights. Can you tell me when it will be available to download via addons on xbmc 10 please?
thanks!

Thank you for the kind words - mcborzu still deserves a ton of credit here.
It will probably be a while before it is in the official repo for various reasons...
In the mean time, you can install the passion-xbmc.org repository (has a bunch of skins not in the official repository) by downloading this zip and using the add-on manager to 'install from zip file':
http://passion-xbmc.org/addons/Download.php/repository.passion.xbmc.org/repository.passion.xbmc.org-1.0.4.zip
Once it is installed, go to Settings > Addons > select the Passion Repository and then Skins and you will see Neon along with many others. This will then be updated daily (assuming I have made changes). In this regard it is even better than the official repo as you cannot update the official repo that frequently.
Thanks,

filigran Wrote:Btw, while testing out this bug I found that your font is missing the swedish (and finnish, but who cares about them.) letter Å (small version å, å if using htmlentities
). You can see this by pressing down on movies/tvshows on home menu. In the sub menu there's an "R" for me (using swedish language) that seems to be a release year filtering. This should ofc be "ÅR" not "R". It's like seeing "AR" instead of "YEAR" for english. Doesn't really make sense.
Keep up the good work!
stoli Wrote:@filigran - I've sent a request to the font authors to redistribute it with the changes. While it is a freely distributable font, the license clearly states that changes may not be distributed....
Edit: Got a response - can't edit and redistribute, but he did say he will send an updated version in a few days, though he didn't say what was being updated....
Kalliban Wrote:Hmm.. It appears that some special characters does not show properly in pop up menus. I use Swedish language and the character "å" does not show. The characters "ä" and "ö" shows as they should though..
Good News. The kind folks @ Zetafonts have let me know they have compeleted a new version of the font I am using with "with an extended character set" along with two new weights. It can be tested here: http://www.zetafonts.com/collection/104/try
I'll be updating this as soon as it is officially released and possibly integrating the two new ones as well.
Thanks,

Great news, really liked that font and look forward to it's return
- stoli - 2010-12-21
The font never left. :-) It's been in the skin, just didn't have some non-english characters.
