I'm not sure I'm even posting in the right thread here as everyone seems to be talking about 889 Realtek? I still, after all this time have Zero surround capabilities for my ALC 1220-VB and I just did a clean Windows 10 install onto a new SSD and there were two Realtek drivers on the Gigabyte site for my B450 Aorus Pro Wifi and they like to "uninstall the old one then install the new one itself" so I don't know how I can even get both installed or if I'm supposed to. Points moot tho because I looked today and Microsoft seemed to replace those with their own anyway which are also lame 2.0 drivers. I found the Realtekaudio mgr. but had to dig it out and install it myself but those got replaced by Microsoft anyway
I keep trying to find something here but like I said it's all 889 chip or Sound Blaster or Atmos stuff or this not applicable for my case.
I'll be over here in my corner if you need me- lol

Try going to Settings -> Sound -> Sound Control panel
Select your output (Speakers)
Properties -> Advanced Tab
and check "Enable audio enhancements"

Hello,
Only Dolby atomos speaker system/dolby atomos for gaming works for me, every other app won't even open.
I remember that I used blasterx 720 year or two ago and everything was fine but now nothing works.
My mobo is asrock z370 k6 with alc1220

The older patched Realtek APO is nothing but problems, you don't even get the APO updates. Dedicated APO is the right way.
There is a dedicated DTS Interactive and Dolby Digital Live, the DTS one I have, Dolby I could not source.

Not a pro but sharing from my experience.
Check if you Microsoft .NET redistributable installed
UWP is pain , even if you uninstall the app , it might leave the config residue in WindowsApps directory. Also you normally can't delete anything inside it but you can check if there is DTS residue with powershell admin.
Also check that you remove all drivers related to Realtek , DTS or AAF ( more details on page#1)

As far as I know the current package works on Win11, although if there is a Win11 driver, its likely a beta.

all DCH based drivers from 2020 & 2021 work fine under Win11

New drivers ? Waves APO include in new versions please

NO, antonkaz!:mad:
waves maxxaudio apo never gonna included in DCH modded drivers, not even in new versions - waves always enforced restrictions on their software and never work on unsupported hardware

Me again guys, I have no luck imstalling this on windows 11, can anyone telme if they had any luck and if yes what were the step you took to fix everything. Because literally everything does not work for me.no matter how many times i reinstall. As a matter of fact in driverstore app no drivers is shown in regards to alan finotty or realtek for that matter so they're not being installed.

Long ago I had some pretty basic hacked X-Fi drivers that enabled DDL/DTS Interactive, am I doing something wrong? Pretty sure this old Z77 board has an ALC892, if that makes a difference.

Just tried installing this with the "new" Realtek APO DDL_DTS option, no Nahmic APO installed, and the two Dolby/DTS APO selected, as well as Creative Cinema 5. Dolby app doesn't show up at all, DTS app wants a license. There is no Realtek control panel to be found anywhere. If I recall correctly, I used to see DDL/DTS as options I could enable on either the S/PDIF output or the regular analog minijacks, it's not on either. I think the secret sauce was setting the analog output to 5.1, enabling DTS Interactive, and then just using the optical output.

Enhancements are enabled on both devices. Stereo 96/24 works over S/PDIF, but that was working with the default drivers too. These ancient Logitech Z-5500 speakers can do DTS 96/24 but I don't think DTS Interactive ever supported it, I could stick with just using the DPLII decoder built-in to it, but DTS Neo always sounded better to my ears and I used to upmix it using the Creative driver that way.

If I have to do something in AAF ALC Audio Policy Tweak Tool to make it work, I sure as hell don't know where to start.

NEW DCH DRIVERS RELEASED IN GITHUB
DCH DRIVER VERSION UPDATED TO 6.0.9231.1
MORE DETAILS IN GITHUB

WARNING: There is also an update for Nahimic on the Microsoft Store to version 1.5.4.0, but it is very likely that once installed, your enhancement will stop working.

ATTENTION: You will need to uninstall the currently installed version before continuing with this installation. A condition has been imposed for this due to problems reported by some users.

ATTENTION: This driverpack isn't eligible for USB-based Realtek audio chips.

RECOMMENDATION:
Before installing this modified driver, be sure to remove any and all residues from previous Realtek audio drivers or even if there are residues from previous versions of my mods, if they persist. For this you will need the DriverStoreExplorer (by @lostindark). Remove any drivers whose vendor is "Realtek", "Dolby", "DTS", "Creative" or "Alan Finotty" in the Sound, Video and Game Controllers, Extensions, Software Components and Audio Processing Objects categories.

Those who want only Realtek material, just choose the panel option (HDA or UAD), select your decoder and deselect the rest.

If Dolby Atmos again insists not to install, here are the packages for installation.

"ATTENTION: This driverpack isn't eligible for USB-based Realtek audio chips." Indeed, I also got asked about this, totally different driver and files. USB is not HDAUDIO.

----

@sheik124, I have Z906, they also do 96/24, bit its a bit pointless given its still 1509kbps, same as 48/24 (Interactive).
I find Interactive with controlled loss, sounds better than 5.1 analogue direct with signal degradation.

Toslink optical is immune to EFI and so on, and analogue usually needs more hardware.

Also note 48/24 is still the standard with DTS-HD and Dolby TrueHD.

It might be your antivirus blocking the installations.

I am using Windows 11 build 22000 and AAF DCH Optimus Sound 6.0.9219.1 , DTS only are working for me

The only version of the driver that works correctly in 5.1 for me is the Patched APO. Will it work if I update to Windows 11 or am I screwed? I have ALC892 (Gigabyte Z390 M GAMING).

Thank you for the drivers, and very appreciative of the work that has been done. I am getting a slight issue however... I just installed the driver 6.0.9231.1 on my ALC1200 (MSI X570 Tomahawk) and DTS/DDL(5.1) are now both selectable with the Patched APO. However, when I try to test it with a 5.1 encoded video only Left, Right, Centre and Sub seems to be working, I get no audio from Rear Left and Rear Right. Anyone have any suggestions on how to fix it?
