I'm using the installer version, but not the default install location, instead its C:\Program Files\Potplayer\.
I don't get any ads, but I do get a box that says Potplayer that quickly fades away.

I've seen some posts about ads with it, I've never seen them, and I have used it for years.

Can you make this option appear as well?

The truth is that these drivers are going very well, before I used to use a patch that appeared in another forum of this page, but with the latest versions of windows I had started to malfunction. With your version to have the 5.1 per optical I have to destildate that option in advanced options. and if I want to play something stereo in 5.1. I have to choose stereo format. because if I leave dts the hometheater plays me only at 2.1, before with the old mode drivers that option of dolby prologic converted everything stereo to 5.1.
If it's not possible, don't worry, everything's really great. I don't mind changing that option every time I play something stereo.
Great Work...
PD: The English language is not my forte.

I'm having trouble with the last few revisions of your drivers. I was using 6.0.9116.1 and that had a bass redirection option and that was functional for me. But your drivers no longer have any kind of bass settings. I'd really like to have the old bass management function from the old realtek drivers but maybe I'm just running an uncommon setup? I'm using a Razor 7.1 headset with analog connections. I'm at a loss to get them to work properly (for bass) with my ALC S1200A sound. The "official" realtek drivers seem to limit me to 5.1 but I can't find any modified drivers that give me both 7.1 analog with bass management. I need the ability to set a crossover otherwise my bass drivers are not active. Are any solutions for me?
 
I will check this tomorrow. Thankyou for the feedback. Edit: Issue fixed.

Does this fix can also help @Alan Finotty with his latest driver versions and ALC892 bug in any way? Last version of his driver that works for my hardware is 6.0.9129.1 and I find it easier to use/maintain it as a daily driver.

In any case, thank you for looking into it :)
 
@agusfri, you have the old problematic version, the latest and clean version is official, and does not require hacks or patchers.
It does need to tweaks in Alans version, as his code is different to my own and UAD, this should soon be fixed.

@Raziels_Lament, This has been discussed between Alan and myself, it should be fixed soon.
@Alan Finotty, needs to modify a dat file and add Realtek to certain FX points.

You should try Equalizer APO, I actually recommend it for various reasons, I have both enabled.

@pyuras, It has been discussed, the action he takes is up to him.

Just a suggestion: for your next release
You can remove DTS Headphone X and its APO3 from your installation, As you mentioned there is a conflict with Creative RPC service.
In addition, it's not required, as headphoneX is already contained within the Dtsx Ultra application and sound unbound.
Please replace Dolby Atmos and use Dolby Atmos for Gaming using vldp120.

Good job and keep up the good work
 
You reminded me, bit more on Dolby vs DTS for your own review (rather than any bias opinion), to make your own opinion.
Dolby Atmos, is not a compression method, its a technology added to pre-existing compression formats.

DTS: DTS - Digital Surround (Interactive) (lossy), DTS-ES (Extended Surround) (lossy), DTS 96/24 (lossy), DTS-HD HRA (High Resolution Audio) (lossy), DTS-HD MA (Master Audio) (lossless).
Dolby: DDL - Dolby Digital Live! (lossy), DD+ - Dolby Digital Plus (lossy), Dolby AC-4 (lossy), Dolby TrueHD (lossless).

DTS:X much like Atmos, is a technology, pretty much identical in purpose and use (pre-existing, and backward compatible).

Note: I rarely see Dolby TrueHD content, but that could just be me, it can be uncompressed then re-encoded to DTS-HD.
 
I've got a Suggestion too for @Alan Finotty:
In the HDA-Panel is it possible to switch between AC97 & Azalia (High Definition Audio) about the AAFP. But in the UAD-Version it's not possible anymore. The Reason: I've tried to get UAD work on my older Sabertooth 990FX MoBo with ALC892. The Setup runs to Success, but my Frontpanel can't be recognized. (I'll edit later this Post with Pictures from it)
 
Installed the latest version, but cannot select 5.1 on the audio channels in realtek console and windows sound config (the only option available is stereo)
 
@Ferather I usually see Dolby True HD as underlying encoding of the Dolby Atmos soundtrack on 4k bluray discs. While DTS:X on blu ray discs is much more rare. At least this is the case in The Netherlands.
Also the Xbox One console can output Dolby Atmos with PCM (no compression) via HDMI.

But this might a be a little off topic in regards to the Realtek drivers.

@dhrto, You could be right, but If I go to Google shopping and type 'blueray truehd' and price £25 or less, I see less stuff than 'blueray dts-hd'. Maybe its my region.

@IDSG89, You are very welcome, thankyou for your time and feedback, enjoy!
