But it cannot distinguish how many channels source audio has. I have rather old 5.1 speakers from Logitech connected with 3 jacks with matrix function that should do something like speaker fill.

Maybe you have receiver that have speaker fill built-in. Tested on music/video files and in browser ( HTML test). 5.1 stream is played correctly on corresponding speaker, 2.0 is filled to all speakers.

original drivers from Gigabyte with replaced patched dll gives DTS but no speaker fill

AAF (DTS patched) and ASUS drivers with replaced patched dll give speaker fill without DTS Both have speakers fill option.īut now after installing AAF Realtek DDL/DTS Patched, I have no DTS Connect !!!! inf starts with (if you find them) :Ĭheck the box "Force Deletion" then click on the "Delete Driver(s)" buttonĤ.Delete C:\Program Files (x86)\Realtek\Audio Launch Driver Store Explorer > Check the boxes of all versions of drivers which. Uninstall Realtek device from Device manager (if exist), check Delete driver software for this deviceģ. Uninstall Realtek (HD) Audio Driver, Realtek Audio Control/Console, Sonic Studio III, Sonic Radar III installedĢ. In short, web browsers connect to my SPDIF as a 6 channel stream, I play stereo audio, so only left-right is populated with audio, upmixer detects 6 channels.Īs you can see no upmixing occurred, there are 6 channels.ġ. So even if you get 6 channels throughout the Windows audio engine (SFX-MFX-EFX), the above will only populate channels with audio. Stereo upmixers are coded to detect 2 channel streams, which is 100% correct, however web browsers and some apps-games will stream the number of channels it detects. Upmixing is done on SFX, so unless SFX is setup properly as 6 channels it probably wont do anything at all. Some people are ok with that, and are happy running raw to EFX to get 6 channels, but you lose SFX-MFX processing, and any quality improvements-features. If I remember correctly there is-was an issue with the patched version, not setting up 6 channels for SFX-MFX, where 'disable enhancements', fixes it because it disables SFX-MFX. If you don't care about Realtek SFX or other APO's on SFX, you can replace it with Equalizer APO ( see here, skip step 1B). Once you have removed all Realtek sound drivers from the computer (sometimes there can be quite a few), you can go ahead and install the driver of choice. Find a driver you want to use, ideally install it with a clean run, so ALL other drivers-extensions-software components related to the Realtek device are fully removed.
