@Alan Finote Is there a way to retask The Rear Line-in as Headphone? I don't have front panel working anymore and I wanted to connect my Headphones along with my Speakers. I wish there is a way to retask. Registry method doesn't work anymore. It resets back.

You talk about the DTS: x ultra?
If you do well the Steps will let you download it from the store.
In my case I don't let the special sound be activated anyway, it disappears after a few minutes.

TLDR: Sorry for rant, Alan. thanks for trying to patch Creative. I re-installed and Creative ran, once. Then after reboot it showed dicconnect error so I ran the config a few different times to no avail. I will reinstall (clean with DDU) then immediately run patch. My feeling is that all this is some kind of control/permission problem related to competing audio devices self-installing and trying to become default communication devices. I was frustrated but not with your work, just windows. If anyone has links explaining how windows allows function s to call and take control of audio let me know. Maybe I should have


I know it is probably impossible to make some legacy hardware work well with Windows 10 "closed garden" driver environment. In my case the X79 motherboard was a transitional platform officially released for Windows 8.1. The Realtek ALC892 codec sounds OK sometimes with standard MS drivers its just that your "basic" version works 100X better even without any extra suites. The ONLY reason to keep trying for Creative is for games. I tested it several different ways. This is much better and worth the hassle. I am (almost)certain the constant changes are a windows permission/exclsuive application control. My PCIe is rated at 3 but only running at 2 and it has somethhing to do with the C600 chipset. Basically my PC is an ugly duckling but its still better than nothing.

Here is what I don't understand. I have a new monitor that does not have speakers. It has volume controls and lots of HDMI ports. Why anyone would run audio through their monitor? In fact, even though this is a new product (lots of features etc) manager sees it as a generic p-n-p. I even added the cabs/color profiles for the drivers (one dell, one Viotek) but its always seems to revert back to genneric.But windows keeps installing Nvidia and the monitor as audio devies even though I am unchecking them and not installing the audio drivers. So how do I get control over that? Half the battle here is getting my PC to wprl as intended and then prevent ms/windoohs from rolling back or modifying things with no prompt or warning.

This is not new behaviour from windohs but considering how restrictive all the controls are for apps being run from "unknown" developers how come hardware can still install itself silently? I guess there is a "call" for audio service with HDMI but its annoying and I have twenty disabled or unsused audio devices because they self-install redundantly if I disable ot uninstall- they come come back- when they dont even need to exist. I guess its plug and play thing but its also how windows audio suffers because the best drivers aren't always used. As for moving from the old realtek console to a modern (hopefully less complicated) way to just do ensure the best sound is working. The Realtek menu for all those "effects" is garbage.. Has anyone ever used an audio effect? Do I need to sound like im in a halllway? Why would I need karaoake? So many companies just throw layers of unecesary crap over stuff that matters. The best part of this project is that users who own hardware should be able to make it work even if the manufacturer isn't supporting it. Microsoft is less concerned with user security and more about controling who or what will be allowed or sanctioned. Personally I have to make this old hardware for a while and I don't want to go back to windows 7/8 in fact I am getting ready to install linux on an old macbook. There are so many new OS builds and other projects to use now.

Microsoft is playing both sides of the fence working with google and open-source software openly but frankly its pretty bad. Most users never read a ToS and have no idea how much personal data is mined and sold. Rather than give users options for more control or more security Windows 10 feels like Microsoft is saying "we know what is best so trust us" every time they roll out an update. As a gamer I have no choice if I want to play games with DX11 or DX12 I have to use windows with a few exceptions. I used play games on my mac but its too old and apple has even worse legacy support. Hopefully there will come a day that open-source drivers and video games will run without windows or I can upgrade to a newer platform which won't be problematic. Sorry for getting frustrated I would always choose Alan's project over other options. I tested out some newer hardware (audio) and my audio now is far superior despite its age.

I have two questions.
1 - I'm using the driver on my laptop, only have stereo output but it's connectec on a receiver with Dolby Pro-Logic II, is there a way to configure a downmix systemwide for 5.1 content to work with DPL and have a better surround sound?
2 - My laptop have a combojack instead of separated ones, with the modified driver, I lost the capability to plug in a microphone, is there a way for me to have the combojack working again?
I don't know which codec I'm running.

HI

First of all,
Thank you very much Alan Finote for all the works your are doing with your software and also for how active you are here by helping us here.

I came here few month ago to fix my 5.1 issue with my motherboard Asus maximus XI hero, I followed the instruction that were post here and it worked perfectly.

Unfortunately my motherboard had an issue with one slot of ram. Therefore, I had to send it back but couldn't fine the same model in Australia anymore.

So i bought a Gigabyte Z390 ultra. ( format my systeme)
I was a bit surprised after installed and update everything that Had no 5.1.

I've download AAFAudioPackDCHFix-6.0.9003.1, developer mode on, all the control app being disable .

Then installed, nahimic, sound blast 720, realtek audio consol . I had a quick look but I didn't find your tuto about the tweaker.

But I'm a bit stuck here after trying few modifications, frequency and configuration.

Could you help me please ?

In fact, this is a limitation at the hardware level, but it is possible to get around it.

On your Desktop, open the "Realtek Audio Device Tweak", check the option "Customized Platform" and in the text values (VID, PCI VID, Verb VID , DID and SID) type 0 (zero).

Click "Save" to save the changes and restart your computer.
hi, my audio chip is ALC S1200A and I also don't get "DTS Connect" option for the S-PDIF. Is my new hardware also limited ?

Yes. This is because some motherboards that have custom Realtek user interfaces are not eligible or do not support this feature natively. But below are instructions to get around this:
On your Desktop, open the "Realtek Audio Device Tweak", check the option "Customized Platform" and in the text values (VID, PCI VID, Verb VID , DID and SID) type 0 (zero).

Click "Save" to save the changes and restart your computer.

Hi @H4cziLLa & @niiyant , you both meant of DTS:X Ultra to me, but no one of you were ready to provide me these specific Downloadlinks of this Feature, so I think to doubt on you :-(

If you are referring to Dolby and DTS 5.1 modes via S/PDIF, they are already included in the package.

I told you, I installed it directly from the store.

But in my case it doesn't work, and the spatial sound only appears for a minute and is deactivated.

As you can see, it is downloaded from the official store, so I don't have more links than that.

I don't understand the language, but maybe it's because of the unsigned driver.
If you followed the instructions and marked error, I can only imagine some incompatibility.

I forgot to read the Instructionz, it was my Error... but the Driver is now already successful installed. But in the Instructions is nothing to find about a Reboot, so I do it anyway

Update:
Reboot is done. Store-Download failed again with the same Error-Code as before

Install the files by opening them.
On DrvCtrl52 we check the boxes as in the screenshot H4cziLLa (

I know that they are included but they are not working:

In realtek audio console and the audio panel setting I can select 5.1 but when I click on each speaker the one at the back don't produce any sound.

DTS is set on / music 441000mhz 24bits
