Eden upgrades the library so it isn't compatible with Dharma anymore? <-- Library DB should be copied and updated (just like on mySQL, but locally) so it should be possible to go back to Dharma. Will try it to make sure, though.

What happens if I don't like XBMC v.11 (Eden), can I just install XBMC 10.1 (Dharma) again?

Eden upgrades the library so it isn't compatible with Dharma anymore? <-- Library DB should be copied and updated (just like on mySQL, but locally) so it should be possible to go back to Dharma. Will try it to make sure, though.


What's with the new volume and volume amplification in the audio settings when playing a video?

Please see wiki article:
http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Videos#OSD_Audio_and_Subtitle_Settings


What might break with the transition from Dharma to Eden?

(Question to Anyone - does Eden first startup default to default skin etc incase skin hasn't been updated for Eden?)

XBMC has upgraded it's use of Python, there is a backwards compatibility clause but nothing is ever certain.
Skins - needs to me updated for Eden - check your skin has been upgraded ready for Eden? http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?t=94724
The whole implementation of the JSON-RPC server has been refactored to be compliant with the JSON-RPC 2.0 specification. This may cause problems with apps that require on XBMC's webserver?


How do I upgrade to Eden (all the steps)?

Mac - copy new application, overwrite old app with it, start app. Should work
Windows - Install from executable and start up?
Linux - Not sure (sorry!)
Openelec - Wait for openelec to push update
iOS device - as per (http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=XBMC_for_iOS_specific_FAQ#Installing_XBMC_for_iOS)
