DHT, DTS UltraPC II, Karaoke this effects r embedded into legacy HDA driver, u won't get this in UAD driver..plus Dolby Atmos (UWP) single handedly outperforms every single legacy dolby/dts product. Why do u think dolby/dts don't release any encoder like DDL/DTSI anymore bcoz their software apo's r much superior than encoders right now, last DTSI and DDL released in 2006 and 2010 respectively. U can configure 5.1/7.1 channel for Dolby Atmos (UWP), just read alanfox2000's DOCs.

Because I'd like only HDA. :)
UAD's time has not yet to come to ubermodding it for effects with UltraPC II, DTS HP:X etc. because it is too fresh for modder at the moment. :)
I'd like, what I said before DTS Connect because it had a very good 'remix like' sound.
DDL is not very much to me at least. :/
As for Dolby Atmos (UWP) you're right it is for UAD, as well DTS Connect/DDL also. :)
 
@Alan Finote

also.. how do i undo the custom config with the Realtek HDA Driver Test utility?

I used DDU to uninstall everything, and let windows update the driver on its own, and now the realtek control panel that installs automatically has the "Gigabyte" logo on it, and my headphones wont work anymore... i didn't think this was permanent, there needs to be a caution if thats the case, or atleast instructions on how to do a backup in case you want to restore to factory defaults.

disregard. reinstalling drivers from dell fixed it.

I just got a new PC with the MSI Z390 Gaming Edge AC, Realtek ALC1220P Codec .
I tried several drivers of yours but nothing worked. Could you make DTS Connect and some Equalizer work for this Codec?

Thanks in advance.
 
I'm on Gigabyte Aorus Gaming 7-OP with ALC1220 . After install Creative Sound Blaster Connect seems to be working as well as Realtek. Nahimic says "Your audio driver is not up to date or system in not compatible." Dolby Atmos stating there is a missing driver as well.

After doing this DTS finally showed up for me after a restart. But suddenly my sound sounds very weird and bad.
Sound Blaster Connect isnt making any difference anymore after I did this step. Plus I cant open Realtek anymore. Its not showing up.
Before I did this one step everything was working fine except DTS.
How to undo this? Please help.

Go to "%systemroot%\System32\drivers", delete "rtkhdaud.dat" and restart your computer.
If possible try Dolby Digital Live.

Thank you for response!

I did what you said and it worked. Sound Blaster Connect effects the sound again.

But the sound keeps sounding weird, like some effect is still on it.
I have checked Sound Blaster Connect plus Realtek to see if theres any effect on, but no effect and sound still sounds weird.

I found out if I go to sound settings > Sound Control Panel > Choose Realtek Digital Output ( AAF ) > Properties > Advanced > If I disable signal enhancements here, the sound is finally back sounding normal but after doing this, Sound Blaster Connect makes no difference in sound effects anymore.

Very weird.

I also tried to activate Dolby Digital Live, after I did the needed step DDL was nowhere to be found in Realtek plus my Realtek suddenly looks different then before, theres a GIGABYTE Logo in the right corner instead of the MSI Logo.

This is given by the hexadecimal values provided for the activation of such an encoder. These values are H/W IDs, and in the case of Dolby Digital Live, the initial "1458" is from Gigabyte.
 
Hi @Alan Finote , I was unable to send you a PM so I post here. It seems you know Realtek stuff, do you know whats going on here:

Audio out of sync with live tv

For some time now I was having issues with audio being out of sync when I watch live tv on the internet. After a full system restart there were no issues and all was fine for a day until I startup the system the next day. I have found a fix on toms, to disable fast startup and this fixed it...

In my view, by the date of the thread in tom's hardware, it seems to be realtek driver kernel compatibility issue (version 6.0.1.8273 latest THAT DATE). The latest version found today for this same kernel driver is 6.0.8845.1
 
Hey guys,
i have following issue. The Soundblaster apps 720 and Cinema 5 (360 not tested) are not saving the equalizer settings. For example in 720. I create a new Blasterx Experience Profile. Edit all settings to my needs and every time i switch back from another Profile the EQ settings are gone and reset to its default copied profile from.
Someone got a solution for this?
 
Hey Alan, thank u for your great work. Since the latest Windows Update (1909) your driver is installing something but not ur Ultimate- driver. Also the audiomanager icon in the taskbar is missing.

So what does that mean? Is there a fix for it? Because if not I can't use DTS or DDL at all which sucks ass with a expensive MB like this, even my Notebook could do this without problems before.

Well, seeing that, in the next versions I will have to make the necessary corrections and change Sound Blaster Connect to the legacy version (Connect 2). Thanks for the feedback.

In your case, uninstall all existing Realtek drivers on your system, but before you install Realtek Mod, be sure to disable automatic Windows Update driver updates. If you can not disable them, download the installer executable on the first page of this thread, then disconnect your internet and finally try to install the driver again.
