Guys with issues: did you have it take a long time to install the drivers? Is there a way to install this in safe mode instead perhaps?

I've been playing with the Realtek utility - maybe a little progress.

Can you tell us what is supposed to be used for the chipset values (when the system doesn't match a predefined default)?

I *think* the first VID/DID pair is supposed to be the vendor and device ID's of the sound chip? Using PCI-Z I found 8086:8C20 1462:10EC - so I'm guessing I should set 8086/8C20.

The PCI VID/SID - and Verb VID/SID - I'm guessing vendor ID's and subsystem ID's? But I don't know for what. In my case would it be from the nVidia audio?

Still problems to me :/
As soon as I reinstall 6.0.8854.1 everything is great. But on recent versions, can't get nahimic to work.
Any clue?
Thanks

you have to be specific when you say nahimic doesnt work. Does it not run (as in closes when you try to open the app) or it opens but the sound effects dont work in nahimic?

The Realtek Sound Manager only shows one analog port - even though I have four (one is also the S/PDIF) and they were visible and configurable in prior versions. I cannot get sound routed to the headphones.

Nahimic is working on the HDMI sound output.

Sound Blaster Connect does not recognize any devices.
Dolby Atmos does not recognize any devices.
Dolby Home Theater appears not to be installed.
try this mod for dolby https://git.fuwafuwa.moe/rtkmod/realtek-uad-dolby-mod

Everything looks fine, so it opens, but on or off sounds the same. Same problem with Atmos tho.

Hi, a quick question. When I choose Dolby Atmos in settings it directs me to M$ Store to download one. Is it normal?

If the product in question is Dolby Atmos for Headphones or Dolby Atmos for Speakers, yes, it is normal, unless you have already installed it.
Adding: This is about Spatial Sound formats.

I meant Dolby Atmos for home theatre in advanced properties of audio while using a receiver connected through hdmi.

Yes, normal; On MS Store the files to enable Dolby Atmos for HT are present.
Dolby Access is downloaded for licensing reasons.

Hi, Alan Finote! I'm having a hard time trying to make dobly digital to work on my Gigabyte Aorus x570 Wi-Fi MoBo. I uninstalled the previous realtek HD audio drivers, installed your package (AAFDrvPackInst_HDA-6.0.8900.1 ), followed the instructions on the first page of this topic, to no avail: I can't get the option of DD 5.1 output on the advanced settings of Realtek Digital Output. Could you please help me?

PS: I'm Brazilian, if its allowed in this forum, I can better explain the steps I took so far in portuguese.

Hi again, Alan. Thanks for your fast reply. I forgot to mention on my previous message, I already tried that solution, it didn't work out. I'm away from my computer now, as soon as I arrive at home I can send some pictures from my Realtek Audio Device Tweak settings and the driver advanced proprieties settings.

@Alan Finote As promised, here are some pictures from my Realtek Audio Tweak and driver advanced proprieties settings. Is there anything else I can do in order to get dolby digital 5.1 output?

It's ok. Realize that, in its third image, the device is described as "Realtek (R) Audio" instead of "AAF Realtek HD Audio Modded". Therefore, you will need to uninstall my mod driver, and, before restarting your computer, navigate to "%systemroot%\System32\DriverStore\FileRepository", look for a folder called "HDX_*Ext_*.inf_*" and delete it there. If you fail to delete it, you must change the permissions on the "FileRepository" folder. Afterwards, restart your computer and install my mod again.

@Alan Finote After I uninstalled your mod driver, I couldn't find any folder with the patternyou mentioned on your previous post (starting with "hdx").

Is there any other folder I should delete?
