You can download it from the official repo:
Edit 11/12/15 - Added working Events window, reworked subtitle selection (now behaves more like confluence), added rough x265 icons (I'm no artist), scrollbars for TV Channels and Recording windows.
Edit 05/01/16 - Added seek bar slider and indicator for non-LiveTV in Video OSD. Realigned some labels for PVR OSD (still messy, but will get re-worked later)
Edit 15/01/16 - Amber available on the official Kodi Jarvis repo
Edit 20/1/16 - Amber v2.2.2 released. Show lock status bar on title bar. Realigned Codec info.
Edit 12/2/16 - Amber v2.2.3 released. Fix parental lock to PVR manager, update video OSD, add toggle showing of plot info, fix watched icons on movie widget, remove unused files, minor bug-fixes
Edit 12/3/16 - Amber v2.2.4 released. OSD update, bugfixes and cleanups, translation update and auto pull by Transifex, aspect ratio fix of Favourites

Before i upgrade to Jarvis and try this skin, has the subtitle selection been fixed in this new version of Amber? I started a thread on it, which has gotten some views, but no responses yet. I watch a lot of anime, and need to be able to cycle subtitles. Thx.

Another quick question - have you managed to include library node support in the new version?
Can't check yet, as my home set-up is using MySQL and my main box is a Pi2, so I need to wait until Jarvis release and OpenElec catch-up before then (as I'd prefer a stable release rather than Milhouse's ones as my family use the box too).

I'm a relatively-new user. Since Jarvis doesn't list Amber as a native skin yet, how can I easily download and install it? I downloaded the zip file but not sure what I need to do within Kodi after that.

I'm getting errors when scrolling past the Favourites section with Amber for Jarvis.
Not really sure if Amber-related, but maybe you could take a look:

I'm also running 6.0.3
Strange, I'll try to dive deeper into the problem.
Might also have something to do with the fact that I upgraded my Python install from 2.7.9 to 2.7.11 today?!

Is "go plex" still working in new amber for javis??
Go plex works so damn well with PLEXBMC I am scared to try 16.3 (but TV live support seems so slick)
