Hi, H4cziLLa could you tell me:
Is it possible to create driver with Dolby Atmos and Sound Blaster Connect for REALTEK/ALC1200-VD1?
Or what should I install from your huge 8GB folder?
I have MAG Z490 TOMAHAWK and latest available for my motherboard is Realtek HD Universal Driver 6.0.9071.1.

Can someone guide me in the right direction for what driver(s) I should be using with my Sound Blaster X-Fi Surround 5.1 Pro on Windows 10 Enterprise 20H2? I would like to run Optical to my Z-5500 speakers, but the drivers from Creative Labs are garbage and not working well. I am running this on my Zbook Studio G5.

Hello, i made an account just to answer you and all the guys who still use Soundblaster cards from the golden era with Windows 10.

There is a guy called Daniel Kawakami who mods the old drivers to make them work under new OS versions, and they doing great. Here is the link you need, just download and install the SB X-Fi Series Support Pack 5.0 and have fun with your great peace of audio hardware.

I am not using the hardware, just the software but since it cant detect my device it wont work. I cant afford a new audio card and frankly the Realtek ALC892 is better than my olde Audigy2 or whatever.

So I am looking to find the files to activate DTS Ultra X (feels like dead end), I looked through your download, on the original page you claim to have Ultra X working,
and yet no files in any of your packages. Please explain how you have Ultra X without any Ultra X files in the drivers (not even APO4).

I've seen a few drivers that claim to have Ultra X working, and yet none of them do.

Do not use SPDIF; use HDMI (from graphics card/iGPU). It will better support all formats such as DTS-HD MA.

I tried with HDMI on my Sapphire Radeon RX 580 Nitro+ 8GB several drivers but can not get it work, it shows only stereo, but with SPDIF i getting 5.1/7.1 just need advice which is better to use for cinema with 5.1/7.1 sound.

1. Create separate thread to see a solution for this.
2. It is better like this; it wlll automatically switch to bit-stream compressed formats when playing movies (except is you play often aac 5.1 or games, then we will need to get a solution for this problem). On usual usage it will send stereo for most common signals; your receiver can perfectly use its own upscaling solutions to provide 5.1.

Hello, did you find a work around for the X-Fi MB5? I had to make a fresh install and now I have no sound...

hello H4cziLLa I'm new to this world look at you have Dolby Access I want to install it
my sound card is a realtek high definition audio
I am only interested in installing Dolby Access
I hope you can help me friend

 

[Fumble]

Hi folks, new member here with a problem. I'm desperately in need of some guidance please as this is driving me absolutely crazy. I Hope I'm posting in the right place.
I have a Creative PCI-E X-fi SB0880 titanium 7.1 in my 64-bit Win 10 PC but cannot for the life of me get 5.1 audio to my amp over optical.
I was previously using the onboard audio from the Asus Strix Z270E Gaming mobo using this workaround...

... and it did work but would get frequent audio drops every 15-20 seconds or so. That's why a friend recommended getting an old-ish sound card rather than use onboard audio.
I thought the SB0880 would be able to do this with the Dolby Digital Live Pack from here...

... but it seems to make no difference whatsoever after installation. The only options in Windows sound control panel/SPDIF Out/Advanced is for 2-channel audio.
My amp (Yamaha HTR-3063) doesn't have the necessary inputs for analogue PC cables, and if I use audio over HDMI from the mobo to the amp then Windows often treats my amp as a second display which causes all sorts of mayhem.
Is anyone able to help please? I'm a PC neanderthal I'm afraid so a really simple guide with everything spelled out in words of one syllable would be really appreciated. It seems from this thread that what I want to do is possible, but I'm really struggling to understand the steps involved.
Many thanks in hope and anticipation!

Hello,

I have a USB Creative X-FI 5.1 sound card.
I have tried those patches and I can not get the Encoder tab appear in Creative Control Panel or DTS in Volume Panel.
Can you please tell me what do I have to do to get those appear there?
Do I have to apply any mods to realtek drivers? Are they connected in any way with Creative panels?
Do I need a specific version of Windows? Does it only work on Windows 10?
I managed to get Dolby tab in the properties of the audio device usign APO, but I can not get the Encoder tab in Creative Control Panel.

Thank you!

Hello, @H4cziLLa in first place, sorry for my english. I need to understand something. I follow all instructions, and i can get all the basic UWP features on my Realtek ALC887 (msi g43plus). I have a Sony 5.1 str685 reciver, so the question Is: can i get real 5.1 sound with this features, from only the green out Jack, wired with a cord miniplug 3,5 to the Sony reciver RCA Jack (white and red in)?
Otherwise, the only way to get "5.1" Is with prologic, but Is dosent real 5.1

Thx, i be waiting your answer.
PD: i have to a x-fi 5.1 surround pro

Hi everyone, my question is, wich Is the use of the Realtek audio tweek? That app, can helpme for real 5.1 sound. I set in the customize tab with the ich6 values: 8086 2668 1043 8546 1043 8546. But the surround speakers not sound at least the prologic function is active. But Is not my idea.
I wanna real 5.1 from my analog (Green Jack) alc887 realtek. My reciver (Sony str685 5.1) someone can tell me, what i do wrong. Thx all

[Ferather]

As far as I know you cant do 5.1 over 1x 3.5mm pin without a matrix. So you are stuck with Pro Logic. What other connectors do you have?

 

[Ralfi]

Has anyone with Realtek ALC1220-VB codec got any of these to work? Which one's meant for this codec??

Thx for your reply ferather, i broke my head with all this about 1 week ago, i have a Sony amplifier 5.1. the device have 3 Jack rca in, (CD, TV, DVD), and one spdif, my realtek dosent have a spdif out. But i count with a x-fi 5.1 surround pro. In conclusion what can i do with the realtek enhancers? I think can i use only for wired headphones, or for the analog home audio receiver imput pcm (CD, TV, DVD). I dont understand what Is the propose or use of the Realtek audio tweek app. Thank you for all members of the thread. By the way, can t install dtsx ultra

 

[Ferather]

@Ralfi

I will be working on 12XX series soon (tm) to support one of my driver users, hopefully it will support you too.

"In conclusion what can I do with the Realtek enhancers? I think can I use only for wired headphones, or for the analogue home audio receiver input pcm (CD, TV, DVD)."
Yes it sounds like you will need to use the 2x RCA in via an adapter, like this cheapo, but this its still 1x 3.5mm and stereo only, or matrix such as pro logic.

"By the way, can t install dtsx ultra"
Do you mean you cant use my driver?

 

[Ralfi]

Oh thank you for this!

 

[Ferather]

DTS DCH 6.0.9126.4 (Signed) - Make a restore point, you may need to try different versions of the compiled drivers, or it may not work at all.

Added support for 12XX series (ALT2 driver), I also added an alternative extension driver, try the main one first.

Added support for 12XX series (ALT2 driver)

Wait, where is this “ALT2” driver?? Can’t see it on the attachment list you linked you.

& is it ok to use with Gigabyte motherboards?

 

[Ferather]

Go to the main thread the links and guide is there. I am using it on a Gigabyte at the moment but ALC889, interestingly I can install and use all 3 drivers.

Sorry, I’m not familiar with your driver list. Which file name am I looking for? (I thought it had “ALT2” in the file name).

Gotto go now, but I’ll hopefully try it our tomorrow.
