I'm afraid Alan F's modded Realtek UAD/DCH audio drivers are either
hit or miss (meaning they either work or they do not) with certain name brand laptops & models from Acer, Dell & HP, manonegro.
your Acer AN517-52 laptop came pre-installed with Realtek UAD/DCH drivers with
XPERI/DTS Audio enhancements [cuz Acer chose to use special audio enhancers like
DTS on certain laptop models]; hence you should stick to using the Acer based & customized Realtek audio drivers directly from the
Acer support site and not use any modded drivers.
Thanks for the input

The problem with dts software that came preinstalled are that DTS Ultra does not recognize that you have speakers or headphones installed i have attached screen shots of both. Its a brand new laptop. 2 months, the first day or so the Ultra worked and really made a diffrence then all of a sudden it stopped working, You see that blacked out part at the lowest of the screen well that wasnt there in the beggining and it came after it stopped working, none of the buttons react to bein pushed, Except for the least important one up in the right corner, it says SETTINGS so one would expct settings to be there but its ju an "About.." link. All else is frozen solid and you can see how it encourages you to connect external speakers or Headphones. Well, it does not react when neither speakers not headphones are connected, ive tried both wired and bluetooh, no diffrence. And unsinstalling and re installing has no impact in any way.
Im so pissed at Acer for putting in unstable junk in a very expensive laptop and worse is that neither acer nor dts gives you any responce what so ever and trust me iver tried being nice and ive been pissed to both companies no one replies. At the Acer user community forum no one knows a thing... Its actually This that got me to search for options and thats how i came across this forum.
Ok so then we have the Second dts software preinstalled. DTS Unbound, ive attached a screen shot for that one as well. Graphically that one Works, things happen on the screen when you press the different sections. But i have honestly no idea what the purpose of that so called App is because whatever you press or go you wont find a single options or settings button, when you press any of them all it does is send you to different videos telling you how freaking AWESOME dts products are, very provoking infact since they fu***ng Suck horribly in every imageable way.
On two other pages in the so called app they are congratulating you on Either "DTS Headphone:X is selected. Enjoy!" and that its fully licensed Or the otehr one saying "DTS:X is installed.Enjoy!" its the videos and the "Enjoys!" that eats me the most because i cant hear any diffrence what to ever with the app On or OFF, its window shopping basically.... Dont let the "Settings" button on the DTS Headphone:X picture below fool you, they just ask yoiu what type of headphones you have and select them from a list, but nothing happens then either...

To me DTS is a scam, since this is my only experience with them ill cal them that until proven otherwise, like seeing something of theirs in this regard actually works. while i know they are Supposed to be legit, i seems that they don't have a clue how to make something that actually works and looking at both apps its doubtful they even have competency to program, they certainly dont have the competency to respond to mails.
Im equally pissed at Acer for loading my lap top with bullshit sw that no one at acer could even have looked at seriously, because im certainly not the Only one at Acers user community there is about EIGHT full pages up and down with desperate customers asking what the hell is wrong with their dts software.....Apparently ASUS have the same issue but i think at least they have tried to make their own walk around, which is of course only applicable on ASUS laptops...
What shall i do? I cent even get the pre installed ones to work an ive search high and low for ANY replacement in this regard, hence im writing here. Its a really awesome laptop apart from this which is quite big a problem since its a Gaming laptop and i need that enhancement.
I used to dream that thier hq was here in my town and i would walk in there and give them a good chunk of my poisoned mind, lovely until you wake up realizing it was Just a dream
In helpful input is highly appreciated. Thanks!!
