h
for the new dolby service update, is there a difference of sound quality between presets with (VLLDP1.2) and without (VLLDP1.2) Dolby Atmos Speaker System for Gaming?

if there's any differences at all, please let me know which one is best to use.


*Also at random, the sound effect goes away and i have reapply the fxconfigurator dolby uwp products config to get it back*

I noticed this issue in the new apo driver 2.5.8 , it doesn't include TuningFileParser.dll in dolbyaposvc folder anymore, but was there in apo driver 2.5.7.

which might explain the sound effect randomly going away and i having to reapply fxconfigurator to get it back. it keeps on doing this.@alanfox2000 please fix this problem.


Also why does Dolby effect loudness keeps getting reduced every update?


Hi Bro,

Im having the same issue.

were you able to resolve this issue? if so, how?

Thanks.

Bro it didnt work for me, is it because im using dolby atmos speaker system?
Depends on your XML version. The solution works for v3.3.0 xmls not 3.2.0 xmls.

Also your probably not using Dolby Atmos for gaming. The solution is Dolby Atmos for gaming not Dolby Atmos.

It's my pleasure. It was because you were just default Dolby Atmos uwp app, imho Dolby Atmos for gaming is much better in sound quality.

It is normal. This is Realtek design:
Laptops get Dolby Atmos officially is same as pic you shown, the realtek equalizer will be closed and replaced by Dolby equalizer .

@alanfox2000 great job on APO Driver 2.6.2, the issue that Netflix app wasn't working with V3 presets is fixed and the loudness of the Dolby sound effect is loud and clear, which amazing.

1. New ASUS motherboard support DTS® Sound Unbound: https://www.asus.com/Microsite/motherboard/AMD-X570/index.html. DTS:X Ultra UWP apps is preinstall on these motherboard. I get the driver file and tested on Windows 10 insiders (non-supported DTS® Sound Unbound motherboard), DTS:X Ultra UWP app show please connect to external speakers. DTS® Sound Unbound UWP apps show non-licensed.

2. Dolby Atmos for Headphones (spatial sound) option cannot be unlocked by Dolby UWP apps on Windows 10 insiders after Dolby Access (the one with new UI) is installed.

Both Dolby and DTS new apps may have anti crack protection or because of Windows 10 20H1 still in insider.

new Gigabyte X299X series motherboards also have DTS Sound Unbound support. there are also specific realtek uad gigabyte drivers with DTS support for the X299X boards [edit 10/10 - the uad gigabyte drivers are v8873.1, btw].
however DTS Sound Unbound UWP app from MS store require Win10 build 18888 (20H1 insider preview) or better as noted in their FAQ.
better wait until 20H1 goes RTM next year and DTS Sound Unbound app will be a more stable version then

Hi everyone,
anyone can teach me some ways to mod the realtek driver on windows 8.1?
I have installed realtek hda with HDXRT.inf and replace all the pcee4 dlls in System 32 and DriverStore from dolby home theater v4 (7.2.7000.4) because I want to use realtek + dolby
But the DTPC equalizer won't "move" and speaker properties is not showing dolby = not working
Is it because the DTPC and realtek dlls names are different? (realtek pcee4 dlls have additional R4 in front of the name)
Anyone can help me to solve the problem?

You need the proper system config tool which changes the registry...why dont you just use the APO driver developed by the author of this thread? His driver contains such config tool

and speaking of Gigabyte, they also have this Nahimic 3 utility download I obtained in late August on their web site (for recent Gigabyte AERO & AORUS series laptops] that seems to silently install the Nahimic 3 UWP v1.3.2 app "offline" without an internet connection [requires a reboot after installation] and can function as a "pre-install" kit (like those Realtek Audio Console downloads from alanfox2000's Realtek UAD github page]. yup, Gigabyte was generous enough to package the nahimic 3 app along with the corresponding license file to be installed w/out having to obtain it from the Microsoft store [hmm, why didn't MSI think of that?] :)
