Sound Blaster Cinema 5 - Temporary tips of reduce high cpu usage by SBC5
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Temporary hack to minimize high CPU utilization by 'Creative.UWPRPCService.exe'
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I think reason behind 'UWPRPCService ' high usage of CPU is because of it's high quality audio output with amazing crystal clear surrounding sound

Don't need to abandon SBC5, neither u need to use additional audio enhancer on top it, SBC5 is more than enough

No need to worry about this issue, just follow this simple steps, & enjoy using SBC5

UWP Service utilizes 25% of CPU, use sbc5 when required, see instructions below

Search for 'Services' from search box on Desktop, Open services, Right click on 'UWP RPC Service'

Select 'Properties', set Startup type to - Manual, apply & ok

When you want to use SBC5, Open Task Manager, go to services, right click on 'UWPService', click on 'Start'

To stop, right click on UWPService, click on 'Stop'
 
Solution for high CPU usage on SBC5:

1.Download the realtek UAD driver with creative : https://github.com/CHEF-KOCH/Gaming.../8470_UAD_Creative_20019_2018_0619_210350.zip
2. Extract and go 8470_UAD_Creative_20019_2018_0619_210350\Win64\ThirdParty\Creative\x86
3. Copy "Creative.UWPRPCService.exe"
4.Open Task Manager rigth click on Creative.UWPRPCService and open file path
5.then again rigth click and stop task Creative.UWPRPCService before replaced the file
6.Open the windows services console and scrol down to UWP RPC Service ritgh click and start. or rebot computer!
7.have fun !

I hope I could help and sry for my english

Same as Virtual Audio Cable, but you don't need to do the turotial step 4.
Step 4 for voicemeeter is set the audio output device on voicemeeter app.
 
thanks all done without problems, with FXConfigurator64 I put Dolby digital plus, then I tried to put dts audio but it did not work and no longer went ddplus, it is not clear how it works Customize multiple audio effects with FX Configurator, in case I can put ddplus dts audio and dolby atmos?

The Modded Driver of Realtek MUST BE COMPATIBLE with Sound Blaster Programs. You can install the APO Driver, open FX Configurator add Sound Blaster .reg file or unnistall this Driver and Install other Driver compatible with Sound Blaster.
If you want know if the driver is compatible with Sound Blaster Programs, open Win64 folder and you must find two files with name MBAPO232.DLL, MBAPO264.dll, mbfilt64.sys and more other files.

Yes, this driver is compatible with Sound Blaster.
This driver has a little pitfall :laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh:, because you must choose the compatible programs.

MAKE A COPY OF FULL DRIVER, Like that:
Sem Título.png


Now, open the folder SELECT DRIVER and inside the folder of selected driver there is a file named "HDXRT.inf". Copy this and paste in Win64 folder, paste and replace.
After that, reboot your PC to Disabling Driver Signature, in same form how was it you install the Realtek Driver. For you don't unistall and install the driver.
Go to Device Manager (Right Mouse Button in Start Menu (Logo Windows))
Sem Título2.png


Now, go to Sound, Video and Game Controllers, select the Realtek Hardware and Right Mouse Button again and click Update Controller. Then, select this options:
Sem Título3.pngSem Título4.pngSem Título5.png

Now, locates your HDXRT.inf, you replaced and update the driver.
After complete successfully, change your Creative Program. Open the ZIP file in folder: SELECT DRIVER\Change CREATIVE\X720 DLL.zip
Extract to Desktop, you have stop the services with name Audio of Windows (Audiosrv) and Audio Position Service (Creative.AudPosService)
Sem Título6.png


Finally, cut the files extrated from Desktop to C:\Windows\System32, again, paste and replace.
After that, run again the both services and check if all works.
IF DON'T WORK, YOU HAVE UNISTALL AND INSTALL AGAIN THE SAME OR OTHER.
Thanks.

What driver you try install? The Above?
If you download other driver, you must use .inf of this driver.
if it's the top, the file HDXRT.inf is it. Copy and paste the folder of driver\Win64. Paste and replace.

FXSOUND ( AKA DFX ).
In order to get to it (and any other virtual APO ) to work, user need to follow THIS GUIDE HERE.
Problem is that FXSOUND config file for 'FX CONFIGURATOR' is not part of the APO driver's config files - there's only one for 'viper4win' - and its config is of course different then FXSOUND.

I tried to look in registry ( after installing FXSOUND ) for its values ( MFX is guess ) under "Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\MMDevices\Audio" but there are many values for FXSOUND ( capture/renderer - many values under each one ).
also, FXSOUND/DFX does not appears under "Computer\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\AudioEngine\AudioProcessingObjects\" - like any other APO ( and viper4win apparently ) - so its more confusing.

I hope someone can make a config file of FXSOUND for FX-CONFIGURATOR to be apply onto the virtual-cable.

Thanks.

fxsound enhancer is not APO, it is a virtual audio driver
Set fxsound enhancer as default playback devices on sound properties and fxsound enhancer set output to realtek

I think I forgot to mention that my realtek output device is DIGITAL.
out-of-the-box FXSOUND don't support digital devices ( like you wrote ) - that's why I want to try the virtual cable solution.

if viper4audio/win is virtual audio driver and it have config file for FX_Configurator - how come FXSound don't have one ?
