Play any sound on your computer (music, videos, etc.) and let it play; Go to the Realtek Manager, lower and increase the master volume as the volume will normalize.
Everything works here.

Hi, Alan.
First of all - thank you for your titanic efforts!
I've got a small issue: on my Aorus gaming 9 MB (click) speaker volume controls ain't working.
I have 5.1 system and it's on in the system options.

Dragging sliders on everything except Realtec HD Audio Output (see pic) changes nothing, speakers working but the volume does not change.
What could be a problem?

Open Realtek Audio Manager and try again.

the audio remains the same

I also noticed that the driver no longer says realtek high definition audio if not realtek (R) Audio)

Also I noticed that my mic (incerted at the back panel) is somewhat lags: I speak a word and hear my voice from speakers like in a milliseconds.
That's pretty frustrating. Not for karaoke users that's for sure.

you likely need to install your notebook manufacturer's audio drivers and reboot to get it back to normal.

1.run any realtek driver package (u want to install actually)with setup.exe ,not using device manager.
it will detect previous driver and ask u to uninstall that,do that...... reboot when asked.upon rebooting realtek will install new driver

u can disable driver signature to be trouble free before doing such things. see this link .follow option one

We are now need Dolby digital Live and Dts Interactive to work without test mode.

It would be very innovative.

And I have an modded .inf file, but I do not know how to adapt the modded .inf file to the new version of Realtek.

Hi Alan, I tried using your latest driver but I'm having trouble, was hoping you or someone else could advise.

I have an Asus Xonar SE sound card, and it has its own separate playback options in the sound menu. I use the "SPDIF Out" which uses a Xonar SoundCard driver. I installed your driver which created a Realtek playback option and it had unlocked everything it was supposed to, however I can't use it because the sound only plays through the optical port of the sound card when specifically its "SPDIF Out" is selected. The default audio source also switches depending on what sound source I select in the sound card's menu, so I can't select one playback option in the windows menu and a different one in the sound card menu.

I tried replacing the Xonar SoundCard driver with a Realtek one but that just causes crashes. If you know what I'm doing wrong I would appreciate advice.

Edit: for reference I'm just trying to get Dolby Digital Live through the sound card's SPDIF line

Does the sound card use realtek drivers?
I see C-media chipset in specs.
Check whether the stock ASUS drivers is a realtek driver first. That might be a C-Media driver. Finote's driver is for Realtek.
Check APO driver if you just want to enable DDL.

Hi all,
I just recently discovered these drivers and would like to try them.. I have an MSI Z370 Sli Plus mobo, with ALC 1220 realtek chipset. the MSI drivers do not include any extra software like Dolby etc. Is it possible for me to install driver that include any extra software like Dolby??

1. Do a system backup, so that if any driver mishaps occur, you can recover.
2. MSI based systems may have a custom interface that prevents the loading of the enhancements' interface.
3. Try Alan Finote's driver. https://www.techpowerup.com/forums/...in8-win8-1-win10-post-your-mods.250915/page-3

whoa Dolby digital plus :D thanks!

Alan, I was wondering, is there any way of forcing the drivers to install DTS instead of Dolby Digital Live (5.1 Surround) for the default format in Windows 10 under Realtek Digital Output ?

Thanks a lot, i will try the driver later today and let you know.
You mean that there is a chance that MSI blocks the enhancements? like on BIOS level?
It is not exactly a block; the realtek driver reacts to the motherboard. The Realtek control panel will change to a custom design made by your board manufacturer. This design will not have custom effects.
The post above me has a method for loading Dolby without using the Realtek driver interface.
Try it.
