[DRIVERS] Realtek Audio (MB | Intel 2xx/3xx/4xx/5xx/6xx/7xx & AMD 3xx/4xx/5xx/6xx)

Its literally included in the name...

Realtek Audio Drivers (UAD - ASUS ROG SS3-DTS MB)

When you scroll a bit down further it mentions how to install the DTS Unbound app...

There are different drivers for the DTS Sound Unbound, which is a different utility to other DTS versions (in terms of technology and licensing).

Thank you so much for the info
but my installation process seems to have stopped at

Microsoft PnP Utility

Processing inf : dtsapo4ultraAsusextensionpkg.inf

This part takes a very long time. I thought it was frozen myself. Just be very patient and it will eventually reboot your system.

I have a B550-F and supposedly it's Gen 1 but Mokichu recommends Gen 2 installations. I just used the Gen 2 install cmd and it's working fine so far. For those confused about the Gen 1 and Gen 2 thing, seeing Mokichu recommends Gen 2, just use the Install_Gen2.cmd file instead of Install_Gen1.cmd and that's it.

Hi everyone,

@ ASUS ROG SS3 motherboards users & ASUS ROG SS3|DTS Sound Unbound motherboards users :

I'm starting to get sick of these Gen questions : Since Gen2 drivers are Gen1 & Gen2 motherboards compatible, thereby there is no more Gen1 drivers on the thread, so there is no more confusion. Those who do not agree with that just have to use the drivers from their motherboards support page.

Hello, I'm trying to help a friend get the latest drivers for their system as your threads helped me get the latest drivers and resolve some performance issues similar to the ones they're currently having, while my driver for the Z390 Gaming-F was easy to figure out, I'm not familiar with the abbreviated names/terms next to each driver category (RTK, DTSX Ultra, DTS AP, etc).
What driver best qualifies for the ASUS TUF B365M-Plus Gaming board?

Hi,

He have an ASUS TUF Realtek motherboard, so :

He need Realtek Audio Drivers (UAD - ASUS ROG/TUF/PRIME RTK MB) from the first post of this thread.

Why is gen 2 recommended? The more recent driver difference is only presets?

Except the virtual thing, but I don't need that. Should I go for gen1/2 @mokichu

You are a hero of patience, to be honest. I got tired of those questions long ago, and they are not even addressed to me.

You answered your own question I think. If GEN1 is better suited for your use then install that one

Thread updated.

Seem to be having a repeated issue with the Gen 2 driver. (Not sure if Gen 1 has this issue...) I tend to use the Sonic Studio UpMix a lot on a 5.1 surround system from stereo sourced audio. The issue I'm having is Sonic Studio switching the Studio Effects to Off automatically. I'll open up Sonic Studio to go to click onto the Sonic Studio Effects to switch it back on and sometimes it will just switch back on before I even click on it. (Like possessed...) The issue only seems to happen during UpMixing audio. If I am playing Dolby Surround or any kind of audio already in surround, it's fine. Works great! But if I'm trying to upmix it from regular stereo to surround the issue starts up. Sometimes it will be okey for a little while but will start acting up.

I've tried cleaning out the drivers and reinstalling (using cleaning steps... not new to this as I've been doing this for a while now.) Tried an older driver version and works fine; has no issues like this! This happens in browsers, happens in apps, happens in Windows Media Player... happens in games! It's not discriminatory...

I was searching the post and saw a mentioning about Gen 1 drivers and virtualization but nothing specific, so that was why I mention I wasn't sure about Gen 1 drivers. (I don't have them.)

If someone could help out here, it would be nice to get this up and stable. Below is my system information.

EDIT: Yes, the app power options are sat to ALWAYS so it's not being shut down for power savings.
