It's normal. mine have two too. Actually when look in the services tab it's only one.
For the DTS, i've uninstalled it cause the updated driver doesn't work with DTS.
All others effects are fine on me. Try uninstall and clean (delete C:\Program Files\Realtek foler and C:\Windows\System32\dolbyaposvc folder) run RemoveDolbyUAPAPIServices.cmd as administrator,
then reinstall again with updated inf file.


Interesting........:kookoo:o_O:kookoo:
Try checking ur input cables for defects or are they loose....etc, i've no idea left. :kookoo:

When soundblaster is at cinema profile, its loud but if i put at netural profile and try to get dolby to make a effect it isn't loud.

So it seems ur Dolby app didn't work at all (or does it work?) i mean can u hear difference when changing profiles..etc, if it works, try adjust equalizer in Personalize profile of Dolby app, turning all mids to high.
Another solution to try is, use Desktop Dolby apps. Even this driver is meant for Dolby UWP apps, desktop apps also work. i've tested Dolby Atmos Sound System and Dolby Audio desktop apps.

It works fine on me, also Dolby Atmos and Dolby Audio works on me.
U should try the desktop one from the link above. Even if it doesn't work for u, u should try clean reinstall of driver again.

The complete procedure should be like this
uninstall old driver (with delete driver software checked) > run RemoveDolbyUAPAPIServices.cmd as administrator > delete the folder "dolbyaposvc" (C:\Windows\System32\dolbyaposvc) > looks for any other leftovers in C:\Program Files\Realtek and C:\Program Files (x86)\Realtek > restart the computer................>>>>
> install the driver through device manager with updated inf file > disable antivirus > install SBX720 software > install any one of Dolby UWP app > change default Dolby profiles if u like to > then finally restart the computer again to make sure everything all right....

The last step is check ur windows main volume is not set too low.....Good Luck! :)

wow that sounds loud and good!!. i don't if its because my pc is old. i have a dell inspiron 3847. When install it, i click install anyways when that prompt comes up, i even have two of the dax api in the processes
Lol :laugh: My Pc too is a budget build only with alc 887 codec.
We've to conclude that May be ur sound chip isn't compitable with this driver.
If u r unsatisfy with ur sound, i suggest u buy and install a new soundcard or buy a usb DAC.
this one cheap and great for ur speaker system i think, also comes with audigy fx enhancer (no need to install modded driver to add fx effects)
https://us.creative.com/p/sound-blaster/sound-blaster-audigy-fx
u can also find for xonar cards too
Have a good day!:)

Install my 6.0.1.8403 Win10x64 mod driver and use Dolby Atmos Sound System UWP App.If you plug in headphone, the UWP App will auto use headphone preset.

how to install desktop dolby atmos? Dolby Atmos (DAX3). api and app both say dolby atmos driver not installed.

The driver (dll) for Dolby Atmos Desktop App is correct, it should not have "dolby atmos driver not installed".
But if you using Dolby Atmos Sound System Desktop App, it show "dolby atmos driver not installed" is normal. Becuase it may caused by dolby newest dll on my modded driver. Even you find the correct dll for Dolby Atmos Sound System Desktop App, both Atmos Desktop App still appear error "tuning data is missing".

So use the UWP App instead.

For "tuning data is missing" problem, blaqsky may help. By compare the different between desktop xml and the uwp xml, adding the missing string on the uwp xml. I got .NET ERROR when run Dolby Atmos Desktop App so I cannot test the desktop app.

It's still not working. Ahh, i give up. I'm going back to Realtek HDA 8363 MOD with Creative X720 that Hihawk send before, that is the one that working for me. Thanks for your help friend. For Alan2000 if you have time maybe you can check why the one from Hihawk is working on realtek ALC269 and yours not. Have a good weekend guys!!

Thanks mate,

So I downloaded this rar "Dolby UWP APP" which contains:
  • DAXUIDolbyAudio = Dolby Audio App
  • DAXUIMainstream = Dolby Atmos App
  • DAXUISnG = Dolby Atmos Sound System App
Am I supposed to install only "DAXUISnG "?

About the Realtek mod driver, could you please share a link? I can't find the last one

Thanks in advance ^_^

Ok! Here agian. This is for Netural Headphones profiles. (No oem pre-tuned profiles)
I think this should works with most headphones including small ones to big ones (in-ear to over-ear)
Just copy n replace the xml files in C:\Windows\System32\dolbyaposvc folder
After that, as usual,:) stop DolbyDAXAPI service n start again. :)

For "tuning data is missing" problem, blaqsky may help. By compare the different between desktop xml and the uwp xml, adding the missing string on the uwp xml. I got .NET ERROR when run Dolby Atmos Desktop App so I cannot test the desktop app.
As for the desktop Atmos Sound System app, the "tuning data is missing" will still appear. In my experience, the desktop app load profiles data from DAX3.sdf database file. (which is encrypted, password protected n so i can't edit it) unlike the UWP app, which load profiles data directly from xml files. Sorry @alanfox2000 :(
