hi. Do you know if Realtek ALC233 is capable of outputting analog 192khz? I have tried many drivers and it only allows me to choose 48khz 16 and 24 bit.

You, Sir, are a GENIUS!

I stuck to the guide and it installed just like a normal sound driver!
The only issue i found so far was that Sonic Studio 3 said the system is not supported or the driver installation was faulty.

Also the test utility shows this, eventhough i ran the rtkhdaud.exe after the installation:
rtkhdaud.PNG


Since the "Has RTKHDAUD.DAT" is flashing red I wanted to ask if thats something to worry about, because so far I dont seem to have any problems.

No. This only indicates that the configuration file with the appropriate driver policies is present on your system.

Does anyone know how to boost the volume using the realtek tool?
The normal drivers are much louder than these modded ones even with the effects off.

Legal o teu trabalho, Alan. Você é brasileiro ? Esse pacote tem o driver genérico HDA ? Eu comprei uma ASUS TUF Gaming B550-Plus com o chip Realtek ALC S1200A e eu só preciso do driver + Dolby Digital Live / DTS Connect. Isso se este chip soporta driver HDA. O instalador tem opções ou tenho que instalar todo o pacote ?

Job very well done, Alan. This pack has the generic HDA driver ? I just bought a ASUS TUF Gaming B550-Plus with a Realtek ALC S1200A and I only need the driver + Dolby Digital / DTS Connect. IF this chip supports HDA driver. The installer lets you select what to install or you have to install everything ?

Yes I'm brazilian. Just select "Realtek HD Audio Manager (HDA)" on the installer task page and deselect everything else.

I don't understand - on windows 10 18362
On uninstall, reboot, install new driver, again just SIDE L R No rear. It's frustrating how these drivers are complicated
Using that file fixed it , but is not what you recommend I understand

Also, is there a way to change the default volume, the stock driver is louder than this modded one (both having loudness eq turned off)

dolby and creative UAD didn't install again?? I have development mode on, and was able to install the appx files one by one, because I found them in temp.
Is there a log I could check to help us troubleshoot why this happens?

Only one Thing is curious: the Sonic Studio & Sonic Radar UWP is still not working, @Alan Finote. I could try to set up the Sonic Studio.exe, but if this runs, I don't know...

Type Windows + R on your keyboard, type "net stop NahimicService", then type "net start NahimicService" and try again. If it doesn't work, restart your computer.

Hi Alan, thanks for the update! It seems I am getting the 'Your audio device cannot be detected' notification in Sound Blaster Connect and Sonic Studio. Also, I'm not seeing SoundAlive anymore in the Realtek Audio Console UWP. Tried clean installing 3 times already, using both Revo and Driver Store Explorer. Didn't have such problems with 8984.

EDIT: Working properly after I installed the 'mandatory' step. By the way, is it ok to also install the optional AAF Optimus bus driver if I'm unsure about whether or not I have an SST?

Same problem here. Both nahimic 32 and 64 exe were running, I give up on that app, I heard it has issues, creative works fine for me. But I wonder which is best, the 720 or the cinema 5?

Hello Alan, I've just completed a few tests for AAF DCH Optimus Sound 6.0.8996.1. After experimenting for approximately 2 x 24 hours. I want to provide feedback:

1. All UWP apps that use the Realtek HD Audio Manager (Legacy) panel on my device can run normally. It's just another problem with the sound produced. All the effects of UWP apps like Creativ suite: Sound Blaster Connect (720 and Cinema 5) each one [selected], Dolby Atmos [selected], A-Volute (tested Sonic 3: Error, so [unselected]), Realtek Asio Driver [selected] not working at all. Cause the default sound from Realtek HD Audio Manager (Legacy) is louder. Although Realtek HD Audio Manager (Legacy) can produce analog output mode normally.

2. Furthermore, I have also tried the Realtek Audio Consule Panel version (1.14.226.0) by combining the installation together with the Creativ suite: Sound Blaster Connect (720 and Cinema 5) each one [selected], Dolby Atmos [selected], A-Volute [unselected], Realtek Asio Driver [selected]. The result is that all UWP apps can't be operated as in the previous version (AAF DCH Optimus Sound 6.0.8984.1) or (analog output mode doesn't work).

3. I noticed, when uninstalling the drivers for the Realtek Audio Consule Driver Panel (AAF DCH Optimus Sound version 6.0.8996.1) using the Revo Uninstaller app, there is seen an old version of the standard drivers installed in the location "C:\Users\Device Name\Appdata\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Recent" as seen in the attached SC image.

Maybe that's all I can say at this time. Thanks in advance.
Regards.

PS. There seems to be a bit of bad news regarding the digital signature in the latest update for Windows 10 version 2004.

For the effects to work, I had to use this file from the first post
Install and reboot. Also make sure your rear channels are set correctly... Sometimes they show up as side.
