what about DTS studio sound? it that possible?

From the DTS.com site:
http://dts.com/professional/computing-solutions

DTS Studio Sound™ is a premium audio enhancement suite that uses our proprietary audio technology to create the most immersive and realistic listening experience via two-speaker playback systems by broadening the stereo sound field and providing an expanded sense of space and ambience, even when the speakers are closely spaced. Studio SoundTM also creates a virtualized, immersive, surround sound experience under headphones.

My father's Toshiba C55Dt touchscreen laptop has Realtek ALC269 audio with native DTS studio sound enhancement. By the way, DTS Sound & DTS Studio Sound is for 2.0/2.1 speaker setups only. It's not worth using when 5.1 and/or 7.1 based speakers are used. Its control panel looks something like this (on supported Realtek, IDT & Conexant audio chipsets):

that's it thank you my friend but it has also parameters in inf file because I cant open property page slprp64.dll its inpossible also sl3apo.dll has a property page are you know for example the registration of sltech64.dll?

the sltech64.dll is only copied to the System32 folder during setup - doesn't register except thru this way (as I saw in the HDXCPC.inf & HDXCPCOld.inf files):

[SRSInstaller.AddReg]
HKLM,"Software\SRS Labs\APO"
HKLM,"Software\SRS Labs\APO",SrsApoTechDllPath,0x00000000,%11%\sltech64.dll

Also, on my dad's Toshiba C55Dt touchscreen laptop, I get only this DTS tab on the Realtek HD audio control panel while the DTS Studio sound application is installed:

realtekaudio-dtssoundtab.jpg


The "Launch" button simply runs the DTS Studio Sound control panel program (apo3gui.exe) as seen in my previous post.

yes I know that but this numero 0x00000000,%11%\sltech64.dll specially 0x00000000 I think in realtek mod driver must be little bit different also we have this
HKR,"EP\\0","{7A8B74C8-FA66-4460-8542-D6119C59E9D4},2",0x00000000,%16419%\SRS Labs\APO\slconfig.xml ;; DTS preset file
HKR,"EP\\0","{7A8B74C8-FA66-4460-8542-D6119C59E9D4},4",0x00010001,0x100 ;; SRS APO 3 on Realtek in sysfx.addreg when we have this code 0x00000000 nothing is happen (disabled) and when some computer support that like Toshiba they automatically register these files but I dont know exactly how in the moment

when installing the DTS Studio Sound application on supported Conexant/IDT/Realtek audio devices, the "DTS preset file" may be different. [ex. on my dad's Toshiba laptop, HKR,"EP\\0","{7A8B74C8-FA66-4460-8542-D6119C59E9D4},2",0x00000000,%16419%\SRS Labs\APO\slconfig.xml is changed to HKR,"EP\\0","{7A8B74C8-FA66-4460-8542-D6119C59E9D4},2",0x00000000,%16419%\SRS Labs\APO\presets_1179fa22_81.xml (for Win8.1 & Win10) or HKR,"EP\\0","{7A8B74C8-FA66-4460-8542-D6119C59E9D4},2",0x00000000,%16419%\SRS Labs\APO\presets_1179fa22.xml (for Vista/Win7); the DTS Studio Sound app installs its own "preset" files onto the "ProgramData\SRS Labs\APO" folder, changing & overwriting the default preset file].

Btw, DTS studio sound is also featured on some ASUS and LG laptops as well (hence preset XML files beginning with "1043" & "1854" - those are vendor IDs for asus and lg).

View attachment 87538

It says "Unsuccessful installation of Realtek HD Audio file !!"

I have Compaq CQ57-381EM laptop with Realtek ALC270 HD codec.
Its because your device ids is not exist into the inf what is your Device IDs go to speaker properties then properties then click on details tab end select hardware ids and copy here after and are you enable also test mode? you can see thread 26 in page 2

So That's the Final Guide for installation of Driver.
1. go into Extras folder and do it all things write in Disabling.docx then do not restart.
2. go to settings - update - recovery then advanced startup and restart to enable the blue menu and press F7 to disable driver signature enforcement inside test mode.
3. install dolby tuning and profile creator first with the driver test mode debug ot dht release and chose install content assets. Do not restart
4. just install realtek driver via Setup.exe after installing select do not restart computer.
5. go to ds1 folder and install dolby digital plus HT
6. go to folder dax2 and instal first dax2_api_release_x64 then dax2updatedb and then dax2_app_release_x64.exe
7. go to folder extras and install audio by Harman and srsuiapo.
8 Finally run A2-V4.reg to get dolby home theatre v4 in place of dolby advanced audio v2
9. restart the computer and all done

Thanks for the detailed write up. It is A lot of steps and i do wonder whether the final result is worth the trouble though. So far the biggest change in audio quality for me is going from cheap ebay speakers to bose speakers.

So Finally I have added Support for Windows 10 Build 16188 and newer insider updates.(this problem is now fixed)
I have Fixed the Error during playback with Groove music player
I have also Fixed The Error for Dolby Home Theater between Driver Version and App Version
Some machines have support for second headphones and maxxaudio I cannot fix their problem in the moment Thank you So much. This is for build 16188 and newer versions do not install this inf on older versions of Windows So just rename the inf to HDXRT4 and replace to Folder Win64 then install the Driver. You can find this Inf in my link

@Silver_WRX02 for What kind Version of Windows you want to install this driver Thank you.
@TimBenz What is your version of Windows that you want to install this Driver Thank you
