Let me give some info about what's going on as I see some of you are expecting 3.0.6 release
Since Baswazz has joined the project we were working hard at improving look, making it as close as ATV interface as we could. As a result most of the screens are now almost 1:1 replicas of it.
Besides, we are pushing hard to make it before Eden final so I just make a fix when bug is reported from yourside but keep going on. A lot of things got improved in meantime so skin version is already 3.1.2.
As I would like to keep things improving further, any skinner or graphic artist that finds this skin philosophy and approach familiar with his ideas is welcomed aboard to join forces with us and help. General idea is to split the work so this does not eventually end up as unsupported skin, so we can focus on details too but that it should also free up some time to actually enjoy skin instead of coding it all the time. Just send me a PM in case you're interested so we can discuss details.
You can expect release (through my repo) in a day or two with some nice bonus that will be added in a week or so if all goes well.

Hi Pecinko, I too have all Apple stuff, and PVR is difficult for it. (I have been looking into it). The HDHomeRun stuff seems promising and there is, of course, the slingbox implementation in XBMC, but that is not really a real solution to me. (can only change channels while in that source, so any kind of program guide is not possible, and the resolution is limited to 320x240 because of DRM build into the sling protocols)
If anyone has a good solution for a Mac, I'd be willing to spend time on it and help you out with design and possibly some basic coding for the Live TV part though.

Hi Pecinko,
thanks for the hard work. I don`t really like the coluored Home Screen buttons (maybe only grey or silver ones?). In my Opinion the "old" Home Screen is a little bit stylisher, what do you think? Maybe it is possible to make selection in Skin Settings between "old" (2 Gen) and "new" (3 Gen) Style? If i could help in any way i will try it;-) But in coding i`m a bloody rookie...;-(
Regards,
Peter
