It would be really cool if XBMC could host vst/au plugins... Run Waves L2 or some other limiter on old TV shows :p

Sorry to hear that, jmarshall. Any vague ETA on this feature? I just watched another movie that had mega volume range.

volume range <3

Yeah, it would be nice to have this. I do find myself constantly riding the volume button on my remote with some films

[cbrunhaver]

Most HT receivers have a "night mode" or other similar compression feature. As such, this doesn't seems like a key feature (to me).

It's useful for all the folk running XBMC with sound coming out of a TV or simple pair of stereo speakers. Work in this area has been commenced, but has been set aside as of late for other more pressing matters. One assumes work will eventually continue, but I have no idea when. So an ETA can't really be given.

I am using the Aeon Stark skin and don't see any volume amplification option / DRC. Also, the headroom tag in advancedsettings.xml doesn't seem to work out. Am I missing something?

Thanks!

Same here using pm3 and whatever the other default skin is - confluence?

running 9.11. Tried putting various values into GUIsettings.xml (<volumeamplification>, <dynamicrangecompression> etc). Haven't seen any change at all in the output. Are these deprecated now?

[hansdampf]

is there any progress made?
my neighbor would be really happy.

I'm still hoping for this to be (re?)implemented too.

Really aggravating having to constantly ride the volume control so I can hear the dialog without blasting the windows out every time a chase scene or something comes on!

[NolesNYC]

Just wondering if anyone could update us on this feature? Thanks

[sonnydye]

This is the only reason I still have XBMC set up to play all videos through The KMPlayer.

Damn, I really want this implemented

[checkup]

Interesting. I also found it very annoying to sit with the audio remote all the time. Would be great to have that feature.

[checkup]

There is already a ticket and an older discussion about that:

http://trac.xbmc.org/ticket/6905

And there is a setting in AdvancedSettings.xml:

<audio>
<applydrc>bool</applydrc>
</audio>

gonna test this now.
