Z77-gd65 realtek audio question

Hi
Recently got a z77-65 motherboard, and I'm slightly confused with the audio set up.  I know the reaktek chipset is compatible with Dolby digital live, & Dolby digital yet I see no option to select that as the default output (the only two options available are marked CD and DVD each with different quality rates.  With my previous motherboard the realtek drivers clearly allowed me to select this option.
When watching a media file e.g. a film I am getting Dolby digital, however I am only getting stereo when playing a game which offers Dolby digital.  Slightly confused as I thought in essence all realtek chips would operate the same through their drivers.
I am running the motherboard with a i5 3570k, 8gb ram, and the GPU is a MSI 7970 Lightning connected to my led TV via hdmi.  The realtek is connected to my amp via optical.  Drivers are the current version available.
Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks!

I'm not sure if Realtek Audio will do an upmix from 2.1 to 4.1 but you can also check if your speakers are able to do it.
Yup, it's inside there...

  • MSI x976 Power UP Edition Realtek Audio Question, probably a simple answer HELP!

    I have the x975 Power up board and 6400 conroe, so far clocked at 2.8ghz.  One hell of a processor, man they really meant it was going to be un upgrade from my [email protected] and it is.  Anyway, I have a set of Klipsch Promedia 4.1's that I still love and enjoy.  How do I utilize these speakers on the realtek hd audio card.  I selected 4.1 on the setup screen and plugged the front channel into the green plug, and it works great.  So where do I plug in the rear channel speakers, which color plug?  I want just to listen to music playing through all 4 speakers, and the surround effect in games, obviously minus the center channel.  I have a santa cruz, that does just what I need, but its dated technology and I really want to utilize the HD realtek if possible, its not like it will slow down the computer, haha.

  • How can I just use a generic Realtek audio driver without "Beats Audio" interfering!?

    Beats audio is terrible! I just want to have a flat EQ with no stupid sound effects enabled. The only way I've been able to do this so far, is to uninstall the audio driver, and just use the generic windows one instead. But what I would like to do is use a generic Realtek audio driver, and completely remove Beats Audio from my computer.
    After uninstalling the audio driver that comes with my laptop, I tried getting a standard Realtek driver from their website. But when I install that, Beats Audio reappears! This is so frustrating! How can I uninstall Beats Audio? I want it gone forever! I can see from searching these forums that this is a common problem. But none of the solutions have shown how to just use a standard Realtek driver without this Beats Audio rubbish.
    Can anyone tell me how this is possible? I'll stick to the generic windows driver if I have to. But it would be nice if I could just use the Realtek drivers as they were meant to be.
    Thanks

    Thanks for the reply. But you've misunderstood the question. I know how to uninstall the sound driver and just use a generic Windows one instead. But what I'm actually looking to do, is install the Realtek audio driver without Beats Audio. Thanks.

  • Dolby Home Theater V4 changed to Dolby Digital Plus after Realtek Audio Driver update Windows 8.1

    Hi,I'm now using Ideapad Z510. After upgraded to Windows 8.1. I'd went to the Lenovo website searching for new driver update.
    But, after i install the "Realtek Audio Driver 6.0.1.7023", the "Dolby Home Theater V4" is not running(audio sound not playing through).And, the "Dolby Digital Plus" is running instead of "Dolby Home Theater V4".
    Then, when I try to reinstall the older version "Realtek Audio Driver 6.0.1.6954" from Lenovo website, the "Dolby Home Theater V4" is running again.
    Truly, the "Dolby Digital Plus"'s sound is crisper and louder than "Dolby Home Theater V4". But the sound of "Dolby Home Theater V4" has more bass and more function (like Graphic Equalizer, more Intelligent Equalizer etc.).
    Is this an update or what?
    What should I choose?The newer driver (for Windows 8.1) or older driver (for Dolby Home Theater V4)?  Thanks. (confused now) @@

    Hi all
    Could you try out DAA or DHTLightweight from my link and just install the Dolby software without overriding your Realtek Driver? I am not sure whether would it work, but worth a try. I have tried on Y460, W520 and G560 with great experience.
    If the older Dolby software does not work with your existing Realtek driver, you could install the DAA or DHTLightweight with their driver to overwrite and see how it goes.
    Thank You

  • Dolby audio and Realtek audio drivers suddenly won't work on windows 8.

    I've got an Ideapad U510, Windows 8 64-bit system.
    A couple of days ago I got a message, which stated that the dolby audio driver didn't work, and I needed to reinstall the driver or restart. I did both and neither worked.
    I searched for drivers on Lenovos website, and updated the driver for Realtek audio. Now the logo for sound just have a red X on it and I don't know what to do. I uninstalled the drivers, installed them again and it didn't work so I uninstalled it again.
    The dolby digital driver won't install again, it says it needs PCEE to install but I have no idea what to do.
    Please help me. I don't know what caused the problem, so I have no idea how to get my audio working again.

    hi Bubble,
    Welcome to the Lenovo Forums.
    Can you try the following:
    1. Press the Windows key‌ +R, type appwiz.cpl and press Enter. On the list of programs, remove any instances of Dolby or Realtek Audio and reboot.
    2. After the reboot, press the Windows key‌ +R, type devmgmt.msc and press Enter. On the Device Manager, expand Sound, video, and game controllers and check if the sound device is listed as High Definition Audio. If it says Realtek High Definition Audio, uninstall it, put a check on 'delete device driver software' and reboot. This step will install a generic sound driver that should enable you to play sound on the unit.
    If the above steps doesn't work and you still see the red X mark on the sound adapter then you may need to backup important data and do one of the following:
    a. System Restore
    b. System Recovery via the OneKey Recovery Button
    c. Refresh or Reset Windows 8

  • Did anyone successfully install the Realtek Audio update?

    I've tried several times to install the Realtek Audio update version 6.0.1.7358. Each time I lose all sound on my laptop. I've tried all the obvious solutions, but the only one that works in the end is to uninstall Realtek and delete the software. What's restored is the generic 'High definition audio device' component.
    I don't get any crackling with this, but the volume is not as loud as before. I would like ideally to get the best out of the Yoga. Has anyone had success with 6.0.1.7358? 

    Dear Kmaustral
    Please use the below link to download and install the updated version of the sound card with the Realtek audio firmware .

  • Possible replace realtek audio card?

    hp pavilloin Slimline s5610y Desktop PC windows 7 64 bit
    I would like to know if I can replace the realtek audio card with another  if so what slot type am I looking at?
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Hi:
    If you can find one that fits, you need a PCIe X1 low profile audio card with a low profile mounting bracket.
    That would be fitted in one of those two small black slots running parallel to the bottom of the motherboard in the picture below.
    These for example, are low profile and come with a low profile mounting bracket.

  • MSI Z77A-G43 Realtek Audio Manager

    Hello,
    I just bought a MSI Z77-G43 motherboard and I did a clean installation of Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit and when it started up the audio was already working which is normal. Then I installed the basic drivers (chipset,lan,audio).(Ok just so you know the situation)
    Now the volume changes on the new Realtek software are working, but the EQ presets, Graphic EQ, Environment settings, Voice Cancellation and Karaoke settings are not working. So basically the whole "Sound Effects" tab is not doing anything to the sound when being adjusted.
    What could the problem be here ? (And how do I add a picture to this message, I have a screen shot)

    Yes it's a shame that one cannot just use Realtek audio drivers but have to use the audio program too. I have tried to extract and install only the drivers but it always wants the software as well. And I haven't find those driver only from nowhere without the software studio.
    That's why I'm using MS drivers, luckily, those work perfect with my 5.1 set up.
    If anyone knows where to get just the audio driver without the software please post link here.

  • P6N SLI unable to produce sound/test integrated Realtek audio

    Is there any way to verify if the Realtek audio devices on my MB are or are not working, say a utility?  It appears the Audio is dead on my MB, and I would like to confirm.  If it is not broken, I need help getting the correct drivers on my system.
    Until recently my MSI P6n SLI Platinum MB was able to produce sound from the back connections on the board.  For the last couple of months though I have not been able to produce any sounds from the system including simple system sounds.  I have tried playing simple beep noises (standard window error sound). I have tried all of the rear output jacks, and have verified the issue is not my speakers (confirmed speakers produce sound from ipod etc).  Currently The system will not even recognize the Audio devices, leaving me to believe the device itself is bad, or I need help with getting the correct drivers on the system.
    I have done the following to attempt to resolve this:
    1. Loaded latest sound drivers for Realtek audio from MSI support site-looking at the drivers listed for the P6N SLI Platinum. 
    2. Because of errors I encountered after installing these drivers over the existing, I unistalled Realtek Audio, then reinstalled the audio drivers from scratch. 
    At the moment, Since the re-install the Audio devices are not recognized.  When I attempt to open the Volume manager, I get the message: "There are no mixer devices available.  To install mixer devices, go to Control Panel, click Printers and other hardware and then click add Hardware."  I attempted do this but of course the Realtek device is already installed. 
    I also attempted to enable the device by going to computer management>devices> Sound, video, game controlser, right click on realtek>properties.  On the Properties tab, I confirmed "Audio Devices>Realtek HD Audio device" was enabled.  Thanks, any pointers on trouble shooting this will help.

    Then reinstall the latest version of Realtek drivers.
    One other question: can you confirm the source for the latest version of the Realtek drivers?  I found mine here as My MB is the P6N SLI Platinum (not sure where to find more specific info like a part/model/version number?): http://global.msi.com.tw/index.php?func=downloaddetail&type=driver&maincat_no=1&prod_no=1140 (XP driver)
    Thanks again.

  • Can't Hear Audio - Realtek Audio Device

    Hi Guys,
    I have an Asus P5Q motherboard with a Realtek Audio Device on board and I can't here any audio. I don't have the tracks muted, I do have the headphones plugged in and I can hear other audio outside of the program. I did have this problem with Premier Pro CS3 but after a reboot one night it just started working...
    Is there any particular drivers i need or software or settings to change??
    Link to motherboard specs: http://au.asus.com/products.aspx?l1=3&l2=11&l3=709&l4=0&model=2164&modelmenu=2
    Many Thanks in advanced,
    Tim Raphael

    Also download http://www.asio4all.com - a free ASIO driver which will work with at least some RealTek devices which I've come across. This driver will dramatically improve latency (reduce it!), and you can actually work realtime in Audition. In Audition's Audio Hardware Settings you will probably see both the RealTek generic driver and Asio4all, as they can coexist on a system. Select Asio4all everywhere you can.
    Now, RealTek audio chips aren't exactly high-end hi-fi, so don't expect crystal clear noise free sound - and certainly do not blame Audition when you somehow can't get it ;-)

  • Can't edit multiple tracks - plus 2 easy audio questions

    I have a sequence with 1 video track and 6 stereo audio tracks. I set an in and an out point. The area on the clips in the timeline between the two edit points highlights, I hit delete. Normally, the tracks between the points should disappear as the two segments come together and form one great edit.
    But all the tracks do not highlight and edit. The video track and stereo audio tracks 3+4 and 5+6 highlight and LIFT off. But audio tracks 1+2 do not highlight or edit. And the whole sequence doesn't close together where the edit should be.
    Only way I have been able to overcome this is to use the razor blade tool, cut each track individually. Highlight them all, and then hit delete.
    This didn't use to be the way. FCP used to edit through one track, 3 tracks or all tracks, no problem.
    Two audio questions. How do you stop the waveforms from drawing onto the clips in the timeline, in order to speed up FCP?
    How do you get the audio in captured clips to be a Stereo Pair, from the outset?
    Thanks to all you who help!

    Is it usual for FCP to bog down on a 4 minute piece when audio wave forms are turned on??
    <
    No. Should run fine. You get up into 6-12 audio tracks, FCP gets all moody and pouty.
    But it depends on your system's capabilities and how well you have chosen your sequence settings.
    Audio waveforms n FCP are a cruel joke compared to many other NLEs. Often easier to leave them off in the timeline, use the waveform in the Viewer and set markers for hooks in the audio tracks.

  • Realtek Audio v 6.0.1.7040 - 5.10.0.7040 - gga109ww

    Hi friends,
    I m T430 and Win8.1 x64 and after installed this update "Realtek Audio v 6.0.1.7040 - 5.10.0.7040 - gga109ww" I do not see the Dolby Advanced Audio v2 anymore.!
    I tried to installed Dolby Advanced Audio v2 manually but it seems not to be working...
    Or anything with this update of Realtek?
    Thank you for your reply before hand,

    In my case, my software update software does not work...it starts and just seats there while the blue bar spins without accessing anything...
    have tried downloading directly from the apple download page, the proapps and to my surprise after entering my serial number, just the most recent proapps are available....not the rest...
    even if I find, by the grace of god, a link in the download link of Apple's pages.to download, let's say, Proapps 2008 2, the link takes me to the same place, of FCP and the option simply does not exist...just the most recent Proapps and not the one I want to get...
    any ideas as to where can I retrieve the other 4 proapps??????

  • I remove by mistake the realtek audio device high definition audio bus. Now, the sound of my computer is not working. What should I do?

    Hi! 
    I remove by mistake the realtek audio device high definition audio bus. Now, the sound of my computer is not working. What should I do?

    first go to start-all programs- windows update is at the top of the list follow the prmpts to install microsoft update which is the new version of windows update if microsoft update is all ready installed go there and select custom then let it look for updates
    then if it detects missing drivers it will install or guide you on what to do. If you have an r52 laptop then try this link.
    http://support.lenovo.com/en_CA/downloads/detail.page?LegacyDocID=MIGR-58599 the best of luck.
    2 if that doesnt work then try this  open device manager right click on the sound device you may have to expand sound, video and game controlers on the tab that comes up select properties then select the drivers tab  select update driver.   
    do it this way incase the driver installation failed the frist time it may not ask you to update again if you didnt uncheck the box that came up on frist try.
    3.find a mother board disk and search the disk using explore for ac97 realtech driver. actually windows update should solve it also try there  FIX IT web site there are many automatied fixes there for your use.
