My current speaker is 2.1....So, i don't know about how it works with 5.1 or not? Do u have headphones? Test with headphones also.
I'll use Alan's sound blaster and Dolby Atmos for now. Till someone makes some mod for 5.1 users to enhance their sound experience
did you get dolby atmos to get? UWP or desktop?

If u want full installation instructions, here it is. (for alan's one or whatever)
1. Disable Secure Boot in BIOS and boot into windows. ( Turn off ur computer, enter bios "Del" or "F2" key usually)
2. open cmd and type (or copy and paste)
bcdedit -set loadoptions DISABLE_INTEGRITY_CHECKS
bcdedit -set TESTSIGNING ON
3. Restart
4. Install driver through Device Manager ( setup.exe will fail)
5. Through Device Manage, locate Sound, video and game Controllers and 2x click ur audio device (Realtek High Definition Audio /High Definition Audio Device)
6. Go to Driver tab and click Update Driver. Choose Browse my computer for driver software. Again Choose Let me pick from a list of available drivers on my computer.
7. Click Have Disk button. Click Browse and locate the HDXMB3H.inf file. (from where u downloaded, ususally in Win64 folder, sometimes that file may be HDXRT or HDXRT4.inf)
8. Open it and click Ok, Next and when prompt choose "Install this driver software anyway"
9. When finished, If windows ask for restart, Restart it. If not go on.
10. Install Softwares of ur choice (i assume u r using alan's one)
11. Before installing Creative SBX720, disable antivirus first.
12. Before installing UWP app, enable Developer mode in windows settings (Settings>Update & Security>For developers)
13. Then install one Dolby UWP app (Only one app will work at a time) if u prefer desktop Dolby, skip this.
14. When installing Dolby UWP app, don't install it directly. There is Add-AppDevPackage file, right click it and choose Run with PowerShell. When prompt choose "Yes" or "Yes to all" always.
15. Install DTS software (DTS is only for movies, if u want to listen musics with DTS, u need headphones to use DTSX)
16. open cmd again and type (or copy and paste) these. (this is for disabling test mode, if u don't want to disable test mode, skip)
bcdedit -set loadoptions ENABLE_INTEGRITY_CHECKS
bcdedit -set TESTSIGNING OFF
17. Restart and test ur sound.
That's all..

Which steps did you follow to install it? For me it always says:
"Both Dolby Atmos driver and API need to be installed"
I'm using this file: "dax3_app_release_x64.msi"
Thanks

Idk if you hear different if you edit C:\Windows\System32\dolbyaposvc\Default.xml and you change ch_count="2" to ch_count="5" or large number ( ch_count may be is a channel setting )
I'm not doing the new driver that includes Dolby Atmos sound system uwp app, as it doesn't work for me. I am using Alan's Soundblaster and Dolby Atmos with vac included.
I'll try that out, and let you know. Updated: It didn't work.
what about this line here <sku value="Mainstream"/> it says mainstream which is just dolby atmos uwp in default.xml, instead SnG for dolby atmos sound system. Because before i was installing dolby atmos sound system, so maybe that might be a reason why dolby atmos sound system wasn't working

If you want more than 2 channels. Dolby must support Dolby Pro Logic IIx technology. I only see Dolby as a beta
Dolby Pro Logic IIx is a technology that converts 2-channel sound into multi-channel audio (up to 8 channels)
It seems Dolby Atmos will be more complete in the future
Your talking about the Dolby Atmos sound system uwp app right?

Guys, is it sound better to add DTS on all SFX, MFX, EFX (8403 Win10 modded driver )? ( this is based on Realtek OEM driver setting )
Download DTS SFX, MFX, EFX inf form below
Make sure you apply the fix DTS Audio No Sound Effect from here again after install the inf.
To test only DTS ON
What to Test:
Speakers: only DTS ON
Speakers: DTS + Dolby UWP + SBX720 All Turn On
Dolby UWP & DTS when use different preset when you plug in headphones
Headphones: only DTS ON
Headphones: DTS + Dolby UWP + SBX720 All Turn On
And also change DTS Headphones & speaker settings:
Reply me if this inf is better the previous than inf
If it is more better, I update the 20180328_realtek_hda_8403_WIN10_64.exe file
DTS on all SFX, MFX, EFX inf:
Copy & Replace HDXMB3H.inf to "Realtek Mod Driver\WIN64" & install
