The Ultimate Realtek HD Audio Driver Mod for Windows 10

The inf works. I followed the instruction and install everything. Looks like Audio by Harman, Audio Audio (DAX2), SRS are not working. I tried to turn them on and off or changing the preset (Movie, Music, Game) seems no difference with the sound. Under Realtek Digital Output Properties, there are two Dolby tabs. 1 is Dolby Advanced Audio v2 and the other 1 is Dolby Digital Plus. Both works great. I wonder if the Advanced Audio v2 is the older version of the Digital Plus or just a cut down version of the Digital Plus Home Theater.

if you don't need DTS over SPDIF
just use the stock drivers and viper4windows

In my case it seems that everything is installed fine but I have some questions.

Does Dolby Digital in advanced section is the same as DD live? I have chosen this as "default audio format" and in some games I have 5.1 sound but in a few got 4.1 (without center speaker) and Prey 2017 for example runs only as 2.0 :/ even though it is decoded as DD.

I also in Realtek panel have no new options for digital sound. Is it normal or did I miss something?

yes it is normal dolby digital output is little bit different than dolby digital live but is the same architecture so dont touch the format in sound manager just select dolby digital output in advanced tab of your speaker SPDIF properties thank you because of that we have this thread here it is for dolby digital output not for dolby digital live but is the same architecture dont worry about that my questions is is all plugins work well for you like srs dolby digital plus Harman dolby dax2?

I've checked some forums and 4.1 audio in some games (via SPDIF), i.e. CoD4 Remastered is a normal thing.
However it's a shame that Prey 2017 doesn't support 5.1 through SPDIF...

BTW
Great driver and thanks for help.
Keep up the good work!

for that reason you have dolby home theatre v4 and dolby digital plus like upmixers and dolby digital to spdif for all games you dont need spdif passthrough in games you have dht4 its better

Upmixing isn't ideal. For Bethesda games (and Witcher 3 among others), you might need the XAudio2 fix.

Might be able to get it here as well if that doesn't work. There's a bunch of places you can find it (though some might have some slightly different compatibility).

that's another thing is directx based and little bit of games support 5.1 direct dolby home theate v4 is upmix from stereo to 5.1 and converter from 5.1 to 5.1 dolby digital encoding system And Finally I want to integrate this 5.1 in 5.1 out Surround reverb this is great together with dolby digital encoder

I followed the instructions from here:
https://www.reddit.com/r/witcher/comments/36h29c/surround_sound_51/crevdwh/

and downloaded DTS_DDL_surround_FIX.zip, run it - now I have at least 4.1 in Prey 2017 :)

I have also downloaded XAUDIO2 DD LIVE PATCHER DJ Urko was writing about and patched 7 dll files mentioned in the guide and still have 4.1 in CoD4 Remastered and Prey.
It is confirmed that Prey has problems with 5.1 surround sound but with volume and mixing channels (chat radio etc.) and CoD4 Remastered works without the center channel.


Thanks again for quick support!

thanks for the answer, ill try to update os first then install the driver.
 
Ok I went through the setup and everything installed fine but now I have no sound. All of the apps load with the PC and it shows I have the drivers installed but no audio at all. I tried all kinds of audio files and websites but nothing plays.
