Realtek HD Audio Drivers + Sound Blaster X-fi 5.1 Pro Surround with full Dolby & DTS.

When you download and uzip the package just double click 'Install', you will be asked what drivers to use. The drivers and files are not hidden behind an installer.

@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?

Ferather: respect dts:x ultra, i try the steps of, device mánager 1st the step import certificate 2nd device mánager 3rd, the app. In device mánager the driver Is ok, it says "dts:x support" or something like that, but the app dont work, the "oval" Is disabled, and the spatial option in the UWP realtek propiertes dont appears. What im doing wrong?.

My motherboard Is a msi 970g43plus
PD: i try install the app dts:x 1.0.5.0 and give me error

 

[Ferather]

no, i didn t anything. I give up with dtx ultra enhancer, but i have a more one question, the equaliser APO should be help me for give me 5.1 trough a kind of special settings?, or i be stuck with Pro logic in my case?.
Remember: only i have analogs outputs un my realtek, and only can i use the green jack out.

anyway thx for all the patience, im glad for your helps.

 

[Ferather]

Stuck with pro logic, sorry

 

[kqlandia]

Stuck with pro logic, sorry

How better is the enhancer dts:x?.
Im my case i have a sound blaster x-fi 5.1 surround pro. And i could get dts with the dts connect pack. Is whort to bought the dts unbound, or Dolby access? For enhance the x-fi? or nothing will be happens with my old Sony str-685 and the x-fi? (only have Dolby digital and dts interactive in both devices). Thx

PD: Can use Dolby access le dts unbound with a bluetooth headphone?

 

[Ferather]

DTS and Dolby in that respect is all for SPDIF-HDMI. If you have stereo only DTS:X wont give you multichannel like pro logic, it will give you spatial, but thats front speakers + virtual rear.

 

[kqlandia]

Perfect, so, the Dolby access dont useful, for my actual setting x-fi s/pdif.
But if i bought the enhancers in mstore can i use the features pack for mí bluetooth headphones?

[Ferather]

"But if I bought the enhancers in mstore can I use the features pack for mí bluetooth headphones?" -- Yes, as far I know: Does Dolby Atmos Work With Bluetooth Headphones?
Did you try the Ultra on your Creative or your Realtek? Dont worry either way since it wont help unless you use headphones, and you have Dolby.

 

[kqlandia]

"Pero si compré los potenciadores en mstore, ¿puedo usar el paquete de funciones para mis auriculares bluetooth?" - Sí, hasta donde yo sé: ¿Dolby Atmos funciona con auriculares Bluetooth?
¿Probaste Ultra en tu Creative o en tu Realtek? No se preocupe de ninguna manera, ya que no ayudará a menos que use auriculares y tenga Dolby.

Ok i understand. In all previous messages i send you i refer always to dts:x ultra. My reciver only Is capable for DDL/Dts interactive, and my headphone is a S.candy hesh 3. The dts:x ultra will can add some fx?. I try to do with Fx configurator chose the hesh 3 as renderer, and aply some effects, but nothing chance

 

[Ferather]

Is that with a Realtek audio device? The driver only runs on a Realtek, if your trying it on the Creative, it must first be active on the Realtek. A Little confusing.

 

[kqlandia]

¿Eso es con un dispositivo de audio Realtek? El controlador solo se ejecuta en Realtek, si lo está probando en Creative, primero debe estar activo en Realtek. Un poco confuso.

Ok ok, i know, the enhancers Is to be usted in realtek device, but some effects, can be add to my x-fi speakers option from audio control panel?

 

[Ferather]

Yes, but it would require good knowledge of audio APO's, drivers and required information. If we are talking about software (application) that you download, then sure that should work.
Here are two totally random applications I found on Google, these kind of apps should work on any device, as they interface with Windows and the audio driver.

Audio Enhancer Software. Amplify, EQ and Effects to PC or Mac Audio. (nchsoftware.com)

Take a look around by searching on Google for "Audio Enhancer Windows 10", or similar.

Thank you

Ferather:
I load de dolby.ini in the fx configurator. His give me some features but only Dolby audio make a change when i turn on or off with the realtek as default device. On the other hand i see in the screenshots of h4czilla to, set x-fi speaker as default, and the realtek as comunication device, i try this, but the x-fi have no audio if i setting as comunication device.
how can i give to my x-fi the sound blaster connect features, can you guide me with a lot steps or something like that?
Sound blaster connect its only matters for me i hope can i enable this function in my x-fi

 

[Ferather]

Unfortunately I sold My X-Fi, and are unable to write drivers for it, I was thinking earlier it might be possible to DTS:X system to it.

This time I cannot help you

When you download and uzip the package just double click 'Install', you will be asked what drivers to use. The drivers and files are not hidden behind an installer.

I installed them & this is what I get now...

I don't see the multi-channel option anywhere. The 5.1 works as it did with original Gigabyte drivers - 5.1 works when either DTS/DD is enabled on the Amplifier, but when the test stops, it reverts back to Pro Logic II, so stereo sources are mixed into the rears which isn't good.

 

[Ferather]

That's not my driver, its says Realtek(R). Follow the full guide to uninstall all drivers and start again



----

Guessing by the like that went well, if not you may need to try some of the ALT drivers, which hopefully by now you know what I mean.
It comes with DTS custom (APO3) and also DTS APO1 with Interactive and Connect, read through the posts for more info.

You may not be able to absorb all of the information given all at once, so either use the posts for reference later, or ask.

 

[kqlandia]

Ferather: how could i get dts:x in my x-fi? Some idea?, i know you sold yours, but maybe you have a better idea than me

Oh I just appreciated your response.

I’m yet to try again as I can’t focus on it 100%, but intend to soon. Let you know how I go...

 

[Ferather]

@kqlandia

Trial and error, but you will need to understand the code used in .inf files. That being said you do have a Realtek onboard card?
If you do, install My DTS DCH driver, and follow the guide for HDMI, but do it to your creative.

@Ralfi

Take your time, no problem.

 

[kqlandia]

Ferather: I have a realtek alc887 onboard Card in my g43plus, if i Will chose an uwp with Fx configurator, for my default speaker x-fi render, this Is not enough for add the sound blaster connect feature? (to my x-fi).

Can i do some simply like set the apo as sound blaster connect speakers/micrphone and the end point x-fi and woila!! sound blaster connect 2 in speaker x-fi default?.
Thats not happen right now with the simply fact i desctipt above why?

 

[s_simov]

is this working with win7?
I have a problem with setting up my surround too. I have Asus H170 Pro gaming, and i'm using optical cable to connect to the receiver. I get only stereo, with no surround options. The test in sound properties show all 5 channels work fine with DTS and DD m yet no 5.1 option anywhere. I see this mods are for win 10 ? Amy help of what i can do will be most helpful

 

[Ferather]

@kqlandia​

No, you will also the the APO .dll files and data in the X-Fi's main driver, at this point you wouldn't need FX config.
If you can use my DTS:X driver with your device, you CAN then use FX to add Ultra to X-Fi.

I would message @Alan Finotty to see if he can write you an extension for Blaster Connect, I do not have or use it.

 

[kqlandia]

I find something, i try set the HDMI TV end point, and have success with the sound blaster connect, and figure ir something, the sound source of TV Is always pcm at least you have play some movie in Netflix, the TV support DDL, so in DDL the effects of sound blaster connect, dosent work, this must be because the DDL funcion cover the pcm mode, so this make me think the next conclusion, every config i will, with all settings of the thread, the ends Is the same pcm. I not try yet in games, but if the game Is pcm, i could get the sound blaster connect fx, but if the TV encode DDL i have no chance with any enhancer. The settings of all this thread, Is for analog systems or wired headphones, (its my point of view), at least in my case, i coudnt find the way to send 5.1 with my analog outputs from my realtek, my reciver have only a spdif in, and 3 stereo aux, Is impossible for me get real 5.1 without spdif, tank you for all y wanna share with the thread my case maybe helps someone.

 

[Ferather]

You made a quote bug as a response, xD.

The 3x stereo is that for 5.1? It should be so you want 3x 3.5mm cables, and set system to speakers, and config the speakers to 5.1.
