DTS:X APO4 + DTS Interactive for Most Devices [USB Supported]

[Ferather]

Features: DTS:X Ultra (APO4) | DTS Sound Unbound (APO4) | DTS Interactive (+APO4).

Download: https://www.mediafire.com/folder/t56tbrq4bv6r6/DTS+Ultra+Pack
Apps: https://www.mediafire.com/folder/tk7ola8b5j6xt/DTS+UWP+Appx

Ignore the Realtek app, shared folder. For USB, other, see notes.

----

> Use 7-Zip or WinRAR to extract, the Windows version will mark all files 'blocked'.

----

1: Install the C++ libraries. 2: Double click 'Install.bat' (Ultra folder). 3A: Edit-restore the .reg files in 'SETUP\Config\' to setup each output device.

To setup the .reg file(s), open FX Configurator, and select the output device you want, a SPDIF device in my case, then copy its GUID.
Edit the .reg file(s), replacing {DEVICE-ID} on both lines with the copied ID, save, close, then apply the .reg file(s).



Import the .reg file via FX Config (device selected), if needed.

----

3B:

If you are using a driver with other APO's, you will need to enter the DTS APO keys from 'Class ID's.txt' manually using FX Config.
The DTS FX keys go first (DTS then other), and the DTS encoder must always go last in the list for composite EFX.




If you are using no specific driver, the Microsoft generic audio driver, you can also add the DTS APO keys manually.
Below I add the DTS encoder to SPDIF with Microsoft, move the keys to composite to add more.



If you don't want the Microsoft APO's, use the .reg files (3A).

====

4: Restart the computer.

====

Notes:

Once you select 'DTS Interactive', disable the device, restore the .reg again, enable, 'DTS Interactive' is now default.
The DTS encoder (Interactive) is for SPDIF-HDMI only, you can also swap SPDIF-HDMI to 'Stereo'.
Use 'Stereo' or 'Multichannel' for analogue endpoints such as speakers, headphones.

----

If nothing happens when using stereo modes with speakers or headphones and the Ultra app, use the provided [OEM] files.
Replace the files in [APO4x] of the main installer, then re-install, once installed restart the computer.

====

If you have a Realtek HDA or USB device, go to the Windows Sound Panel, then recording, right click and show disabled.
Enable 'Stereo Mix', mute the stream, then set it to play to SPDIF to keep the encoder always on.

If you don't have a Realtek device, you can try a virtual device (such as VAC), then disable the playback it adds.
Alternatively, you could plug in a spare cable, or microphone and use that in the same way.

====

If you are stuck with Windows downloading drivers-other over the top of DTS Ultra, see the guide below.
In more extreme cases, remove them, then use Windows Update MiniTool to hide them.

Regedit: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\DriverSearching
Create a new DWORD: DriverUpdateWizardWuSearchEnabled (if it exists, set it to 0).

====

To prevent the provided DTS apps from being automatically updated, disable Windows store auto-updates.
You will also need to uninstall any updated version, before re-installing the provided one.

If you own a Sound Unbound license via the store, you can update it.

Windows Store

In my PC when I activate DTS Interactive there is no audio. Any fix ?

 

[Ferather]

Is HDMI set to 5.1-7.1 or stereo? Interactive on HDMI requires stereo mode, if you would like to use multichannel PCM, use the Multichannel.reg (not the Interactive one).
The receiver might also need to be set to bitstream mode, my extractor for example, is set to bitstream, which accepts digital compressed, and analogue.

Edit: With my extractor, if I set it to 5.1, then select DTS Interactive from the drop-down, it puts HDMI into stereo automatically.

 

[Ferather]

Also note, the composite (multi-line) boxes should be the only boxes with keys in 'FX Config', the exclusive (one-line) boxes override the composite ones.

 

[popm]

same thing with stereo no thing happen
apo4 stoped all time cant active it ??

 

[Ferather]

What is the sound device?

 

[popm]

realtek ALC1220 msi H370

 

[Ferather]

You have to program a custom manually, as I mentioned in post one. I cant really explain fully what you need to do as each custom has its own FX and processing keys.
I can say the default Microsoft driver (no actual driver installed) does not support end point (EFX) processing, and you will need to remove endpoint.

There is two possible reasons it does not work, not programmed correctly, or a VPN or other software is blocking the service.

If you would like to use TeamViewer to help you, message me.

@Bruhimnoob, this should work strait away with your conexant chip, although you might need to use FX to remove-move any LFX-GFX keys to composite.
In the Windows settings, right click the device, disable it, restore the edited .reg file with the device ID, then enable the device.

If you have a Realtek device on the system, you can use the 'DTS Settings' provided with the DTS DCH driver.

 

[popm]

this my endpoint and what step to program custom !! need to edit 'dtsapo4xext.inf' ?

 

[Ferather]

Ok all looks good from here, you simply need to add the DTS FX (SFX, MFX, EFX) to the correct composite boxes.

DTS_SFX_CLSID = "{07531B73-E4CA-4B94-9D0E-D3C9A7825FE5}"
DTS_MFX_CLSID = "{FCDD3010-BB3F-4B24-8074-A18FC7D558F7}"
DTS_EFX_CLSID = "{599C2638-CC15-4FFE-B16A-9246260D2DF7}"

Check these keys are not already preset, add them if not, usually DTS MFX should be first in the list for detection.

DTS Interactive must always be last in EFX, else it might not work properly (digital out).

DTS_Encoder_CLSID = "{A515262A-68B3-441A-A310-0D145362EE87}"

 

[popm]

I found them like that !
but now have new realtek console not for msi !! but dts still disabled !!

 

[Ferather]

By DTS disabled you mean the service is not running? Or do you mean the app, the app needs be installed if not already.




If you found it that way there could be an issue with past drivers.

 

[popm]

yes apo4 is stopped why !!!
but when I delete this file apo4 work but dts not !!
tested DJ Urko Driver DTS old version work and apo4 is activated but with this new dts no

 

[Ferather]

I dont know, all I know is somehow you have mixed up drivers and extensions, probably the reason it does not work.
Its also possible those other modded drivers have done something to the system, Windows.

DTS DCH is fully OEM, and works perfectly when the system is correct, I am yet to get an issue.

----

@popm, I can book you in for TeamViewer tomorrow if you want, and I can help you as much as I can with the install and setup.

 

[popm]

make video to explain how to make clean install or how to use fxconfigurator plz

what mean mod continue and multi channel is on auto configured

 

[Ferather]

So its working now? What was causing the issue? your last sentence is a little wonky

----

Here is something that might help some of you with the same issue, where presets fail to load for unknown reasons. To the reg files add:

"{7A8B74C8-FA66-4460-8542-D6119C59E9D4},2"="C:\Windows\System32\DTS\PC\APO4x\dts_apo4_oem_config_1025133B.xml"

to

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\MMDevices\Audio\Render\{DEVICE-ID}\Properties]

result:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\MMDevices\Audio\Render\{DEVICE-ID}\Properties]
"{7A8B74C8-FA66-4460-8542-D6119C59E9D4},2"="C:\Windows\System32\DTS\PC\APO4x\dts_apo4_oem_config_1025133B.xml"
--Plus the other settings

 

[Bruhimnoob]

in my case it is showing conexant smartaudio hd for laptop and another source high definition audio device under lg tv it is converting laptop audio to digital and sending to lgtv now what to do.Dts sound unbound installation failed

 

[Ferather]

I see thanks, one is GPU (HDMI), the other is the internal sound card. Which device are trying to program?
If you like, I can guide you via TeamViewer (no need to install, you can run no install).

Edit: Im guessing internal since your TV does not support DTS.

 

[Bruhimnoob]

I posted screenshot it is saying dts interactive present but not able to play test tone in playback properties and dts sound unbound installation failed in powershell giving some red line error , can i directly send you the conexant driver ??

Conexant HD CX20672-21Z Audio Driver | Driver Details | Dell India

 

[Ferather]

Would you like me to guide you via Teamviewer, its not ideal to text type. If you are trying it with the TV, I can see it does not support DTS and will not work.

 

[Bruhimnoob]

i installed teamviewer im dming you id

yes can you please make a new meeting in teamviewer

 

[Ferather]

Please note, the Microsoft driver does not support endpoint processing, and you will end up with fail to play.
The device should be using a vendor driver, to get EFX (endpoint) support (Interactive, other).

 

[Bruhimnoob]

if nothing works i might try to stream audio from my other pc in which your driver is working to the laptop and to tv through icecast

 

[Ferather]

Shame about the TV not supporting DTS, and the Microsoft driver. You did everything correctly, if you need any further help simply ask.

 

[Bruhimnoob]

will it auto install if i use driver booster
