Just as a reference, let me mention that digital output means that the sound chip's DA converter will totally be circumvented so that conversion would happen in the receiver (or other target device), which might have better or worse converter than the chip on the board. Sound chip pretty decent, not pro quality, but little noise.

So is there a way to configure and test each individual speaker(distance/independent volume), including the Surround L/R, asthe test signal in Sound Manager plays a stereo sound, like the oooold Realtek HD manager used to do in the early 2010s?įor now, I'm going to run with the R2.82 modded driver and assume it working as DTS and hopefully get my surround game on for the first time? I Hope. What I tried, was to download a DTS trailer demo and ran it through VLC Media Player with these settings and it seemed to be working?

So, I am not sure how to test whether this is working or not? Note that Realtek HD manager does not open with R2.82 View attachment 135972 View attachment 135973 When changing the option as shown above to DTS it unblocks the slider(not sure what the slider does though) - How ever still don't know how to send a test sound/tone through individual speakers? In Realtek HD Audio manager, if the Dolby Digital Live was selected, the Dolby/DTS tab cannot be used. In Realtek Digital Output Advanced tab, I had both DTS & Dolby Digital Live (5.1) options included Note in the sound properties, the configure button is greyed/blocked

I am not sure how to test whether my Logitech g906 speaker is working using the optical output from my Gigabyte X570 Aorus Master.
