Man, i noticed now that my MoBo has THX support. But how to make it work? i installed the realtek driver on motherboard support site and now i can choose between 5.1 and 7.1 but there's no difference between one and other.

Don't worry man, really appreciate your help. I tried to install your DTS DCH driver, but i have lot of latency so i patched the APO and used my realtek onboard driver with dolby, but the sound isn't so cool..

Sorry to hear that, is that with Sound Unbound? Its engine needs optimization, it even causes lag on optimized drivers. I suggest Headphones:X v1 (APO3) in these cases.
Alternatively, you can have Sound Unbound installed, but don't use the spatial modes, this way its engine wont engage on the device (no lag).

@Alan Finotty, if you can work magic on SU, I would be very grateful, it needs a big cleanup (you know what I mean).

Note there is a bug with Ultra, if turned off, it kinda breaks, you have to switch to 5.1-7.1 then back.

It seems to be the app, or settings storage, I think it forgets or does not store data.

Well today is truly a new day for me. I just rebooted and CSB720 still runs. Not only does it run it runs well and looks amazing. All while I can still enjoy my simple thrrow-back retro RTHD console for iminimalism. Listening to Bob Marley with big smile! I wish I knew what I did differently. I even installed MS store and allowed updates. That usually breaks everything. Not today. Everything is fine Cali on my side of the street. Thanks Alan!

Waitaminute!!! Why is Windows Audio Device Graph Isolation taking 10% and lagging out Foobar2000? It is always something.

10% is quite a bit, with a few apps open, media player discord, steam and a game I see 2.4%.

I'm not sure if this has been asked before, So forgive me If the information is somewhere in the 140 plus pages of this thread.
First Thanks so much for making this, It's amazing.

But I have a 5.1 surround sound, when I install your driver and use any of the creative 360 720 Cinema options It switches my rear surround to side channels.

Is there any advice on how to get it to correctly recognize my 5.1 speakers correctly ?

I can make it work by using a 7.1 configuration but when I do that I loose all signals being sent to the side speakers I marked here.

Thanks for any help !

To get the normal rear 5.1, since the driver is set differently, use 7.1 and disable side.

Thanks for the response, I continued to mess around with it and came to the conclusion that this is the probably the best option.

I know most everyone uses headphones, But I really like my little 5.1 speaker setup.
Maybe now I'll just say screw it and finally build out a new 7.1 speaker setup, My 5.1 is pushing 15 years old at this point so maybe it's time for something new

unfortunately i cant seem to to get it to work properly with my razer Tiamat v2 which is a 7.1 headset and the control panel does not let me select any thing else (stuck at stereo) despite having Rear, side center, front and surround connected which are all labeled blank.

@Orimn, Using the provided tweak tool, try the following (save then restart):

DrvCtrl 29 -- 18-Win81_Max6chChannelMask - enabled
DrvCtrl 40 -- 21-SkipWin81_Max6chChannelMaskFor8Ch - enabled
DrvCtrl 18 -- 25-SwapReportRearAndSurrToCPLforDolby - disabled

You should now have rear with 5.1 mode.
