DTS:X APO4 + DTS Interactive for Most Devices [USB Supported]

Maybe I dont know. I am also helping someone with a Nvidia, they seem to have no EFX support either :(

----

This might work to get Interactive, disable the audio device, move the last key of EFX to the last in MFX, and delete EFX processing. Bit of a cheat but should work.

working just with 4.0 or 5.1 7.1 after adding my id device
but I want stereo mod ( add my id device in stereo.reg but no change ) and with muli channel cant use other option like music still auto all time !
what about dts souund unbound need to be licensed ?
 
I think there is some sort of conflict if you are unable to load stereo, and if SU requires a license.
I can do a TeamViewer meeting with you tomorrow to guide and assist.

Its not easy for me to see-understand the problem from here, if I can find the issue I can try to help.

Currently I am unsure why you get service blocked on stereo mode.
 
if you want i can put some SS from my regedit cant give you access to my pc cause prv thing
 
Fair enough, are you able to use Discords screen share? If not we will need to switch to private messaging.

----

I might be able to modify the Nvidia driver to support EFX, but will need some time and a tester.

AMD is the second one, more like Realtek in code.

Is there any way to use spdif output from hdmi or from usb like a hdmi to spdif adapter or analogue to digital adaptor
 
Yes, I am running HDMI to SPDIF, you can also get other adapters, devices. I am using an HDV-MB01 (video bandwidth is 18gbps, ignore the 1gb typo).
They are called HDMI Extractors, ideally you want one that can do 5.1+ on Toslink (normally listed as LPCM 5.1 on optical).

The unit I am using can be updated with a driver, I can also use Potplayer, WASAPI exclusive, event driven mode, to send lossless down Toslink.

I'm using a 7.1 external sound card.
I was planning on applying the DTS class IDs to the endpoint, then I noticed that it says "DTS_EFX_51_CLSID".
Does the EFX support 7.1?
 
@CityCultivator, the controller has code to do the following channel configurations: 2, 5.1, 7.1, 11.1, Any.
@prophet59, you might need to write a guide, since you sussed it with Nvidia (all working).

Today I re-programmed the AMD driver to work on an older AMD GPU. Everything works also.
I did notice an issue in some cases with registrations, so I will update the files soon.
 
you have to follow the guide here:
and I stay on the microsoft driver because I have more format to support this one
 
Update: https://www.mediafire.com/file/vs24nfcd194rji4/DTS-X_Ultra.7z/file

Fixed an issue with registration, now working as intended.
Added .inf support for AMD-Nvidia GPU's.

----

How to use the setup files (see also post 1):

Disable the audio device using Windows settings.

Open FX config, select the device then copy GUID.

2.png

Paste the ID, replacing {DEVICE-ID} on both lines.

3.png

Save the edited .reg file, then restore it (double click).

Enable the audio device, for Interactive repeat all steps after selecting it.
It will setup its self, but not as default, the repeat fixes that.

----

Thanks everyone for the feedback.

That's because something is blocking it, when you enter stereo mode, the service runs a license check, some VPN's and security software block it.
When they block it, the service see this as an interruption, and potentially an attempt to hack, other reasons, and turns off.

I have only known this to happen due to VPN's blocking the online license system.

Issues on headsets with DTS support? – Support (steelseries.com)
hearthstone - NordVPN adapter (NordLynx Tunnel)

Also note you cannot buy a license for Ultra, only for Sound Unbound. Which I suggest you do, the newer versions are better.
Owning a Sound Unbound license generally entitles you to use Ultra, as its a part of your license (in the app).

Not only do you get new features, but DTS also made the APO and technology, not me.

====


My friends AMD was not listed, with an edit the driver installs and works perfectly.
Also, encoded formats went from none, to all supported by the TV.

He now has multichannel Interactive:X on his TV.

====

AMD DCH - DTS Edition - YouTube (Screen recorder, downmixes to 2 channel).

====

Virtual Audio Cable 4

Can be used to trigger speaker detection (the speaker pin setting, right side of the control panel), or keep Interactive:X always on.
If you want to use the .reg files on VAC, open FX, press properties, to open an advanced regedit, then file import.

Run the panel as admin, disable the devices to change settings.

I managed to install the driver thank you very much on the other hand the dts x ultra does not work. He tells me that it is activated but I cannot select any mode and that I reduce the window and reopen it, he tells me please connect external speakers. Which mode should be multichanelndts interactive or stereo for dts x ultra?

@prophet59, when in multichannel mode, as it says, its automatically configured, you cannot press any buttons, those options are for stereo.
When in stereo mode, you need to switch to a speaker device (at the bottom it says external speakers), then change back.


Its the only current bug with combination analogue-digital devices.

An extension of post 1:

If you do not see the following, then the Ultra app will not install, and 'dtsapo4xext.inf' will need to be edited.

1627127722924.png

Open 'System Information' > Components > Sound Device. Then find your device and its PNP ID.

1627127902353.png

Edit the .inf file to include your device, you only need function and vendor:

1627127957247.png

Save the file, disable driver signing, install just the .inf if the pack is installed, or run 'Install'.

Then send me the line you added, so I can add it to future updates.

Hello,

I too wanna use DTS:X for my headphone.
Have a Realtek ALC1220 and using the M$ driver of the actual Win10 21H2.

I'm a little bit confused of all the new possibilities atm in this forum, but I like, what's going on. :peace:

I downloaded a lot of packages, but it doesn't work.
Maybe that's because of my Win10Privacy App is blocking M$ Store to download anything.

Could get some help what I could try next.
Best regards
 
I am not sure the apps can be installed without store support, I will see if I can find some info.
 
I reactivated the M$ store.

I have your "DTS UWP Appx" folder, the "Settings+Utilities (DTS)" and the "Preset (Updater)" folder.
But I only need DTS:X for headphone (and for Stereo loudspeakers within the same driver (Realtek ALC1220) from M$).

Some are from that thread, some from here. Sorry for confusion, but what would be easiest best install for that.

Just follow the main Realtek thread for a Realtek device, no need to swap around. Current release and guide is here, you can use that plus 'post one' of the Realtek thread.

All you really need to do to start with, is make sure all other Realtek (or modded) drivers and extensions are fully removed, and the system cleaned.
This is just to make sure the machine is a clean as possible before starting, to prevent issues and frustration later on.

If you have any questions, or need any kind of assistance simply ask, I can also do TeamViewer.
 
You mean, it's not possible to use DTS:X with M$ drivers?
My board has DTS:C support, but I have had some trouble with Realtek drivers in the past (Lags or auto updates).

If that is not possible with M$ drivers and your DCH 6.0.9200.1 seams to be the better choice. Then okay, I'll try it.
 
You can use MS drivers with this pack, it should work now. Make a system restore, then follow the guide.
 
Seams to work now ...
