GOOD RESORT

hi everyone

since the links no longer works can someone create a new one for DRIVERPACK #1 - WITH DOLBY PCEEv4 HOME THEATER please?
i was messing with new drivers (didn't work as i planned), and i want to revert back to that one.
thanks

 

[grich]

you can create you own with WHQL drivers, while you wait for them to create their next versions. I would suggest 8688 WHQL (has best bass and overall sound) then use fx configurator to add on Dolby Theater V4 or Dolby Digital Plus. You wont get Nahimic but then that has a huge well-known bug that causes crazy cpu spikes

 

[MAOCUBO]

is there any tutorial to create your own drivers with WHQL drivers?

Dear Alan and all.

Thanks for the contributions. It makes possible to get back to have Dolby sound on our Windows 10 systems.

I still have 5.1 issues with latest drivers 6.0.1.8678. I have a dolby 5.1 surround system connected to optical SPIDF output. Although on Realtek Properties window "DTS Audio" and "Dolby Digital" are playing rear speakers, I cannot hear them playing dolby movies or playing games. I have checked with both Dolby Digital Live and DTS Interactive installations (on both installations, I didn't include any audio enhancer but just DTS connect). Am I missing something?

It is not really create your own drivers, but rather install WHQL drivers then use FX configurator to modify it to add Dolby Theater 4 or DDP or something else on the list. From the drop down menu select each and every [ACTIVE] endpoints show then select product catalog button and select what you want. Do that for every end point. Dolby Theater 4 will give you the loudness for all frequencies while Dolby Digital Plus will give you maximum bass but you lose the mid and high frequencies.

You need to install FX configurator first, along with the drivers you want. In the part of the menu read it carefully it says pick one of the ones from below as in don't install all of it. You need only the dolby stuff.

If you screw up don't worry, go to device manager of windows and uninstall your Realtek from Sound category (don't check the uninstall driver]. Then right click and tell it to check for changes and it'll reinstall Realtek defaults for driver and you can start over.

As for the Dolby Theater 4 or DDP programs, you can install those from one of the sound packages here in this forum. The only one that matters is the Dolby Digital Plus application which will add another layer of sound on top of DDP that is enabled in the sound driver once you enable that with FX configurator. The Dolby Theater 4 program 99.99% of people wont use unless they want to change the equalizers.

If you're looking for the ability to change from Dolby Digital Live to DTS, you cant. You will need a driver specially created for this. The WHQL drivers has one or the other and no way of changing it. The newer drivers seem to just say Dolby Digital without saying which of the 2 it is.

I want to make an update. Alan's MOD driver together with this XAudio fix (http://kiplange.com/how-to-get-dolby-digital-livedts-connect-working-in-most-steam-games/) made 5.1 true on SPDIF optical output for 5.1 content. (Although the fix is replacing several files, I have the feeling it is just C:\windows\system32\xaudio2_7.dll the one that did the magic). Sadly, it is a buggy solution.

However, I miss a DDL signed application to convert stereo audio to 5.1 . How shall it be done under this context?

Thanks!

the Xaudio problem is a Microsoft problem (not a Realtek problem). MS never bothered to add 5.1 surround support for Xaudio in any version of Windows.

thanks for the link

I was able to download 8678 from there, however after installing Alan's 8678 mod on my old HP pavilion media center m8417c desktop pc running Win10 LTSC 2019 (v1809), the Realtek Sound Effect options (equalizer/EQ & environment) in the Realtek HD Audio Manager are not there anymore.

also when installing his mod, why do users have to choose between the Dolby Digital Live and DTS Interactive "encoding" options? how about selecting both of them or none at all? Installer/setup needs further improvement to select one, all or none of the encoder options (note that DTS Interactive does not work or not supported on laptop based Realtek ALC26x audio chips like ALC260/262/268/269) Also the mods include an oudated version of the DTS Audio app (v1.0.60.0). latest version of DTS Audio app is v1.0.79.0 that I found from ASUS's web site in mid-2018, which support newer models, especially for ASUS gaming laptops that do support DTS audio.

I've uninstalled Alan's latest realtek mod and have gone back to using stock Realtek audio drivers w/ SRS sound on my HP computer, which have the EQ & environment options listed in the Realtek HD Audio Manager control panel along with the SRS Premium sound tab to launch a separate SRS audio app.

Yaaaaaaa, I got install the UAD Driver in my Realtek ALC883 Codec, with Realtek Audio Console + Sound BlasterX 720º, BUT ONLY IN STEREO OUTPUT
How can I upmix to Output 5.1 Surround?
Besides that, the Realtek Audio Console is very beautiful in my opinion of corse .
The version of the Driver is 6.0.8699.1, the last one.
C'on I need help.
Thank you.

 

[grich]

not absolutely sure because I never had UAD working on my 892 and still dont know if it can work with it. But I will say this - some drivers will require the APO Driver (fx configurator) installed along with the dolby checked inside it before 5.1 is active. If it isn't installed and the driver doesnt install it by default then you got only 2 speakers to choose from.

I have the APO Driver and the Program FX Configurator.
I can't make these changes?
After instal the Mod mine config stayed like in image.
