The Ultimate Realtek HD Audio Driver Mod for Windows 10

Why do not I have Dolby Digital after installing old drivers (R 2.82, R 2.79)? They install without a problem and work without a problem but without Dolby Digital Live 5.1. On the old computer, these drivers have Dolby Digital 5.1.
I added my ID Device to HDXRT.ini but without any results.
Do you have any ideas?
Thanks.
 
For those of you using Creative Connect 2, do you have a problem with the dashboard losing settings after restarting the PC? It is happening to me and I need to set it again each time...
 
cant even get creative working, not even for older set of drivers that once worked. It's probably why the newest drive don't have creative in them
 
my mic and spdif/coaxial output ....don't work anymore :(
someone can help me? i don't want to "reset/format" my windows

I made a mistake erasing "pin configuration"
 
So here is an updated driver designed for 19H1 builds. The link is in on page 1.
Now 2nd Headphones support sound effects like Realtek Stock sound effects, Dolby digital plus, Dolby PCEE4, Nahimic, Dolby Atomos for Gaming and Full support of DTS Studio Sound and Headphone X.
Speakers also support these Plugins.
Dolby digital output via HDMI and SPDIF with NAHIMIC, PCEE4, DDP.
Updated Dolby PCEE4 and DDP Static and Dynamic Keys configurations. Now The BASS became more rich and deep. Also we can Hear Differences between PCEE4 And DDP.
How to install:
1. remove old driver and enable TEST Mode via Command Promt (Read Disabling.docx in Plugins folder) then restart the PC.
2. Install DTS APO GUI First then Sign out and up the PC.
3. Install the driver mod using Setup normal then restart the PC.
4. Install all the Plugins in folder Plugins such as Nahimic, Dolby digital plus HT, DTPC(content assets only), Dolby Atmos for Gaming. That's All

one question: how come you are using PCEE4 TEST DLL'S Instead of 72.8000.17 release?
 
@Jayce Yes it has a Differece a big difference the test dlls have options inside for some PC who have a problem with installing net framework 3 also the version is 7.2.7000.4 with out net framework 3 you cant run Dolby tunning and profile creator and also optimizer and regulator works only with conncted microphone or Line in cable.

Shame Dolby atmos in Spatial sound format not work anymore i have already payed a Lincense and who knows when dts sound unbound will be active for downloading .....

Dolby PCEE Main application do run with any version of PCEE4. The separate Dolby Home Theater/Advanced audio do version checks.
I would not recommend using Optimizer and Regulator for anything other than speaker correction.
I am not familiar of what you are doing with Optimizer and Regulator. Could you clarify what you use Optimizer and Regulator for? (Or do you just enable it to be used for an end user of your mod?)

What happened to your license of Dolby Atmos?

Only now I could test your drivers since before I did not find a combination of the files in the first post and a recent tutorial, the first impression is very good I will do some more tests and then I come back to give more accurate feedback. Thanks again for giving attention to those who use headphones.

I have chosen not to install Nahimic and even then there is a service running on your behalf, can I disable it? or does it not interfere with the audio there?
 
@ScrooW you can disable Nahimic with Power on off button or just dont install the plugin. This plugin is good because he overwrite Nvidia HD Audio by optimise function.
@CityCultivator Dolby atmos is broken now because is beta version they put some settings in ui that's good but when I chose dolby atmos in spatial sound the sound broken and every player give me error will playing shame because I dont have Realtek HDMI to use my mod of dolby atmos, my HDMI is NVIDIA HD Audio and Intel display audio. long time ago dolby atmos in spatial sound are worked correctly but it has no settings options like equalizer and surround expander now they will upgrade the ui but finally not working anymore Shame Shade.... Optimiser and Regulator are two more precise equalizers for every speakers individually. so thats more professional

@Dj Urko About DTS Sound Unbound, which you mentioned in a previous post, although it is not available from the Microsoft Store, there is a way to download this APPX file.

Indeed Optimizer and Regulator are powerful specialised equalisers for speaker correction. Are you using that in the mods?

Your audio endpoint must be explicitly marked as headphones now for Dolby Atmos for Headphones to work. It seems a recent update changed the activation of spatial sound API. Thanks Microsoft!
Try separating your audio outs into independent outs. This worked in enabling back spatial sound API & Dolby Atmos for Headphones on my system.

Realtek HDMI? You have a link for its existence? Never heard of that on PC. You are using an Nvidia Optimus laptop?
 
@CityCultivator my PC:
Motherboard is MSI B85M-G43 with 1GB integrated intel Graphics
MSI GeForce GTX 1060 6GB

Optimiser and Regulator are part of Dolby Tuning and Profile Creator UI, yes I use it

@Alan Finote yes I have already download it but still not work I cant buy or try the dts sound unbound it give me always error

Hello everyone, I have a problem with my msi x470 gaming plus, recently I bought it and I went from playing ps4 and playing on pc. my sound before was perfect with the dolby activated, now I have connected headset station to pc with spdif and I have also updated the controller with the patch on page 47 and I already see the option in advanced DDL. but in the game the headphones have a small delay of the sound. How can I know if I've done the job of patching Realtek? What could be happening to me?

Games with DDL out always have a small delay. This is part of DDL and cannot be removed. If your device is able to use DTS Connect, try that; the delay will be less/unnoticeable (but it will be there).
Stereo has no latency.
What is the model of headset you are using?
 
thanks for answering, astro a 50 of 3 generation. Two DTS option actives?

Can you disable the Dolby Headphone feature of the headset?
Your headset is physically a stereo headset. If you can disable Dolby Headphone, do that and enable Dolby Atmos for Headphone on your PC. You will have less delay and a better sound than the older Dolby Headphone.
