Hello again. I have installed the drivers as mentioned your site but I only get dolby digital. No DTS (which is preferable). However i have the dolby digital plus options from the window console.
Also there is no option in the realtek console menu.
Any suggestions? Should I reinstall or it wont make any difference?
My motherboard is a asus z170i pro gaming with alc1150.
Thanks in advance.

well yuou should notice form the page that ASUS boards are completely striped of DTS I. and that this is ongoing for a 6 months now maybe more , there is some solutions on my page not sure if the provided old drivers will support your 1150 but you might try . I have ASUS Z170A and Im the one who actually proved that ASUS for some unexplained reason disabled all ENCODER support on new Realtek or Asus released drivers .I'm so pissed off with ASUS if I had a chance to meet in person any of their developers or engineers I would fuckin beat him to death with my fucking ASUS Z1701 A motherboard and hang him in front of ASUS main ofiice building as example for all this lazy ignorant motherfuckerts to look at !

I contacted these clowns from ASUS one more time and Im really pissed !
"
DTS Interactive is not available with your latest drivers for over 6 months now and your company didnt do anything to fix that issue ?
Did you lost DTS Interactive licence ?
Why we as end user and consumers has to suffer from your wrongdoing ?
My motherboard is equipped with DTS Interactive OUT OF THE FUCKING BOX It worked till driver release Version 6.01.7848 it doesn't after Version 6.0.1.8158 so I WANT THAT DAMN FUCKING THING BACK!
Do something you lazy FUCKS! this is the 3th time Im contacting you and I LOST IT! my patience is ZERO NOW."

lets see what idiots has to say

Does anyone have a Realtek mod with Sound Blaster X-FI 5 that work with the latest windows 10 version? I had it installed before and it was working after update too, but now I reinstalled windows and can't make it work no matter what I try... I really miss the bass boost it gives to my sound system

dear dvojinov.First please forgive my poor english since I'm a chinese.
I just updated to windows 10 and installed your 8295 mod, got the DDL and DTS Connect worked.Awesome! But now I have another question.after update to windows10.I cann't not set my speakers to 5.1(I have a Logitech Z906 system) in digtal output.The HD audio manager just dont have the tab to adjust speakers.I changed to the original driver and found there's no that tab too!Then I checked the windows's own play device manager.Also cann't set my speakers during spdif out.WTF,is that a bug of win10?Or have I done something wrong ? Do you have some method to resove it?Thanks a lot.

PS.My mainboard is MSI b150 gaming pro,thanks again

So I just signed up on this site to say thank you to Pihto and Capta Praelium. I can confirm that Pihto's patcher still works. But I also haven't downloaded the Windows 10 Fall Update yet.

After perusing around the internet trying to find out how to make my mobo send out Dolby DIgital Live, I found this thread. Somehow I found Capta Praelium's post (page 62) about how to use Pihto's patcher (page 47) to patch the 2 DLL files you need to change when you download the new Realtek drivers. Worked like a charm. For the record, I used the latest drivers from ASUS website for my X99-A/USB 3.1 mobo (codec ALC1150). Unzipped the driver. Put the patcher in the WIN64 folder and ran it. Then installed the driver from the exe that you normally would. Also, I'm on Windows 10 Pro, Version 1703, OS Build 15063.726. I have rebooted a couple of times and everything still works. I saw somewhere in this thread someone mentioning it may not work with Witcher 3 or Fallout and maybe some other games, but I tried both Witcher 3 and Fallout 4 and they were fine.

I don't really know how much I'll ever post here, this may be my only one. But I wanted to say thank you and leave the pertinent info about my system for anyone else looking into or working on this.

DTS was there before. What I was looking for was to get Dolby Digital Live because I needed it for games when I output the sound to a headset that uses an amp that only runs off optical and doesn't do DTS. It only does Digital or Pro Logic. But since my speakers run off analog, I had no way to check if DTS was actually working or not.

When I reinstalled the ASUS driver using Pihto's patcher, it enabled Dolby Digital Live in Windows and in the Realtek manager and now it's perfect.

All I did was to make sure I had the latest drivers from ASUS unzipped. I downloaded Pihto's patch and put it in the folder it needed to be in to run. Then I uninstalled my current realtek drivers through the control panel. Rebooted. Made sure Windows didn't try to install drivers on its own. Then I ran the patcher and patched the 2 DLLs. Then I ran the setup exe from ASUS. Rebooted. Everything's cool and everything's smooth. Now I have Dolby Digital Live and DTS is still there too.

Kinda impressed. That patcher was posted 2 years ago and it still worked on the latest drivers I could download. And thanks for the site link.

Have to check the drivers for your motherboard on asus page , as asus really messd up DTS Interactive with series 8 drivers Im fighting them for over 6 months and they did say they will look into this problem after some very aggressive email exchange . Im after DTS Interactive so it really bothers me as I have ASUS Z170A and DTS Interactive out of the box which doesn't work with any new drivers and yes once modified Dolby Digital Live is available but not DTS I . In other hand when I install the latest available driver for my mobo neither one is available .
here official replay form asus :

Dear valued customer,

Regarding the below problem, we have forward this case to the responsible department of our Headquarters, in order to examine if it’s going to be a new release of the Audio driver with DTS support. We will inform as soon as possible.

Yeah that sucks. Before I found this patcher, I was about to give in and get a sound card.

Sorry thing is, up until a couple years ago I always used a Creative sound card. When I built this rig, I figured I would try mobo audio. It just keeps getting better, and I'm sick of fighting Creative's drivers. Can't say I've been disappointed really at all in the audio coming from my mobo. But now it seems we have to fight motherboard drivers and Windows 10. I guess there's just no winning with audio drivers and Windows...
