if it compiles *cough*

Here is a short list with supported platforms:
adsp.basic & asdp.freesurround: available on all platforms except Android.
adsp.biquad.filters: only available on Windows and Linux.
The problem is that I don't have a working build environment or device for testing. Furthermore I'm currently improving my asplib, which is a dependency for adsp.biquad.filters. When this pull request is merged I will work on porting the add-ons to other platforms.
Currently I'm writting a new thread with an overview about AudioDSP and further developments. When it is finish I will mention it here.

i installed the release 16.4 under Windows to see how the ADSP is working. I found some setting you can change in the OSD :-) Very nice work.

Output is Stereo.As far as I know that is currently not possible. adsp.basic only has a post processing, which is performed after master processing (in your case a downmix mode). Our core implementation supports that, but we don't have an add-on for that sorry.
Would it be possible then to increase the level of the Center channel only?

When i'm playing 5.1 music is surround automatically disabled?
Is asdp.freesurround available for RPI OpenELEC?

It breaks my vision about Open Source and Kodi's crossplatform support.
(2015-12-20, 14:11)chjan Wrote: If I understand this thread correctly, the KODI project has set out to create basic DSP features like biquads, delay, etc. Questions then arrise as all these basic features are available in a zillion variants in the industry standard VST. Thus, to replicate all the features available in VST format is a giant task.You're right, but the most audio processing algorithms can be implemented with in some lines. See my library for the biquad filter. It is one class. What needs many effort is the UI and the configuration of the algorithms. Further effort is needed to create a nice user interface, which you can use while sitting at your couch
(2015-12-20, 14:11)chjan Wrote: I believe such a wrapper is not hard to do. I have written several VST plugins in Java, then wrapped via simple text files to VST plugin format on Windows, or to VST, AU and LADSPA plugin format on OS X, etc. The reason for using Java (also Windows ASIO compliant, BTW) is crossplatform compliance for the situation when the same software is used as a standalone app on Java compliant platforms, including Android. It means the VST and other plugin variant were a spinoff, but it works very well.
(2015-12-20, 14:11)chjan Wrote: You can run VST plugins without GUI, so in a basic version the non-crossplatform GUI problems are not showstoppers.You have to implement this basic GUI with Kodi's GUI library. It really needs some effort and is not so easy you might think. You have to write a wrapper addon, which implements all needed host functions for VST. Our API is Open Source if you know how to write it in Java why not starting this project by yourself. Our API is stable enough to start new addons.
(2015-12-20, 14:11)chjan Wrote: so it is not that easy to replicate just like that in a new DSP KODI formatIt's not just replcating it is customization for Kodi It is not format it is a shared library with it's own API like VST or LADSPA.

Happy new year
currently becomes FreeSurround only used on stereo and is available for music and video (with TV).
About 5.1, yes is then not available to select
I can not say on the moment if it is present for OpenELEC.
(2016-01-09, 22:49)braz Wrote: I've skinned the DSP Manager/DSP Settings dialogs, but I see the settings dialogs for each adsp addon also need to be skinned. For example:
adsp.basic: DialogSpeakerDistance.xml, DialogSpeakerGain.xml
adsp.biquad.filters: DialogParametricEQ.xml
Are there plans (or is it possible) for ADSP addons to use standard Kodi dialogs for their settings, so skinners don't have to do each one?
