    Realtek Modded Audio Driver for Windows 10/11 - Only for HDAUDIO

    After the last Windows update I found that, yet again, my 5.1 audio over Optical (S/PDIF) had failed to work. I uninstalled and reinstalled the latest release, but this did not return 5.1 support to functioning and the dropdown in the options only allowed 2.1 channel support. I finally found...

    Unlocked Realtek HD Audio Drivers for Windows 10 (Dolby Digital Live/DTS Interactive)

    I had been using the AAF Realtek drivers for a while but the last Windows updates nerfed them and ruined my optical out 5.1 based HTPC setup. Since then I haven't been able to find the right combination of installation items within the AAF setup to get it working again after these Windows...

    Using Windows 10 21H1's newest update broke my existing install. I'll need to find out what release I was on previously, however it had 5 channel support for my motherboard - ASUS ROG Strix X470-F Gaming AMD Ryzen 2 AM4 DDR4 DP HDMI M.2 ATX Motherboard. After the OS updated I had to reinstall...

    Realtek Modded Audio Driver for Windows 10/11 - Only for HDAUDIO

    Thanks for these drivers! They're the only ones I've been able to find that have true and functional 5.1 surround sound over TOSLINK/Optical that is reliable. I had an issue this summer with audio streams not resuming quickly, but it seems the latest release works perfectly fine. For reference...
