Surround sound 5.1 no in windows 8

Even though I've updated all my drivers later, I am unable to get sound 5.1 sorround.  I hear noises in my speakers during a test, but when I play a song or a movie, I get no sounds.  However, I bring in 2.1.  Please let me know the problem.

[Moved from comments]

I did not the same suggestions as M. Karthik, but it is true that I assumed he
There is nothing particular about Win8 which would have an impact on the way in which the audio is configured, as the audio
(I speak from a built-in audio chip or sound card, no audio Windows generic),
as you would probably know about as a professional in hardware and software, runs away from his own
software and has its own configuration options.

If your messages have been more detailed in what they use the steps you did at first instance, including what sound card you and other trivialities such as if you have used Win7 without problem on the same machine, then we would not have reacted as if you were a person who do not know these little details that are so easily overlooked by many users.
There are relatively few hardware and software professionals with questions on these forums.
They most often use other resources more adapted to their deep knowledge and professional status.

HM - I wonder how the answer of Mr. Karthik has been marked as an answer when the problem has
not been resolved?

  • Just not upgraded for Windows 10, 7.1 Surround Sound no more functions

    I use a Logitech G633 helmet, which is compatible with a 7.1 surround sound. Before moving to Windows 10, one worked perfectly well with Skype and my sound quality surround sound was crystal clear. After the upgrade to Windows 10, Skype does not use surround sound and instead, I'm treated with bad stereo audio.

    Everything else on my computer always uses one surround sound, except Skype. This problem is only with Skype.

    I tried to reinstall the Skype and Logitech software, with no result. I am at a loss for what to do and if I can't find a solution I'll down(up?) level to Windows 7.

    I already tried to install a version of LGS that dates back all the way to March 2015, and it did not fix the problem. I was already using the latest software version when I was running Windows 7 and Skype worked fine with one surround sound with Win7.

    Hi korlath,
    First, make absolutely certain that your soundcard Control Panel, but also the sound properties in the control panel are properly configured to use the number of channels you want.
    If you are still having problems and you want audio equipment, follow these steps:
    a. go to your C:\Users\\Documents\BioWare\Mass Effect\Config directory and rename the file to something else BIOEngine.ini.
    (b) launch Mass Effect without running the Config utility. The game will recreate BIOEngine.ini using the default values, and must correctly identify your audio hardware.
    c. in the in-game Audio hardware settings should already be selected - do not change back to audio software or make other changes to the sound settings.
    Note: Audio: If checked, the game uses hardware acceleration that improves the audio quality and performance. I recommend you check this option in most cases, unless you are having audio problems or other problems. In particular, note that you will need to check this option if you have a multichannel audio system and use more than 2 channels.
    Hope this information is helpful

  • 5.1 surround Sound speaker system does not work in Windows 7 Professional 64-bit edition

    My problem is about the same as other users who cannot get their surround sound speaker system to work properly in Windows 7.

    I have a subwoofer and 5 speakers (2 front, 2 rear, 1 for the centre).  Connection to the RealTek HD Audio embedded is simple, orange for the subwoofer, green for the front and black for the rear.

    Test the sound in Control Panel-> windows sound produces a sound on all channels and RealTek HD Audio Manager at the same time, which is the desired configuration.

    However, different applications use different channels.  IE and Firefox use the front channels, VLC/MediaPlayer uses the back.  3D games (that is to say WoW) through all channels.  In each case the subwoofer does not work.

    I tried to download the latest drivers on the motherboard (Gigabyte) manufacturers site.  I even tried the supplied RealTek drivers (even if on the Web from RealTek site which is NOT recommended).  I tried to connect the connectors of the subwoofer to the different takes (reversed black and green).

    I have experimented with the settings in RealTek HD Audio Manager and control panel-> windows Sound.  Nothing works.

    These exact same subwoofer and speakers worked perfectly well on Windows XP.

    I have 2 questions:

    one) has anyone resolved their 5.1 & Windows 7 problem something that I have not yet tried?

    (b) when will Microsoft take this issue seriously?  All Microsoft provided answers just repeat what everyone

    has already tried.

    First disconnect the cable 3 (orange, green and black) then click on Control Panel configuration-hardware and sound - Real tek HD audio manager - central tick, subwoofer and rear pair, front left and right and filling of speaker

    Then click on advance device settings.

    Select "perform front and reading of output devices back two different audio streams simultaneously" and give ok

    Plug all three pins one by one and select the appropriate option in the popup windows.

    That's all.

    You give enough information for me to get this working.   My system runs Win 7 X 64 Home Premium.   When I select 5.1 sound capacity side my 550 x Logitech speakers are not recognized.  If I select 7.1, which is the capacity of my chip Realtek chipset, I can get the two outside are activated as a "rear" speakers and can push the test tones to each of the four surrounding speakers and the combination of Center/bass via the Realtek driver.

    Regarding the "front and reading of output devices back two different audio streams at the same time" worries... I can't find this option.  There are at least two suppliers of 'control of the interfaces' assets on my system.  One is provided by RealTek, the other by Microsoft.  The access roads to these interfaces is roundabout and confusing, to say the least.

    Some compromises are in order in my humble OPINION.  I have my Pandora one stream play in an acceptable way in my small study.  Many of the source of sounds streamed to me are recorded in stereo or mono, I find myself hitting the 'matrix' on my Logitech X 550 button quite frequently.  Sometimes a more recent piece is delivered which actually looks Ok without the decoder "matrix".

    What I would really like to be able to do is to "reconfigure on the fly" between the built in speakers on my Acer Z3731 system USB bar ' All in One ' and my external Logitech X 550 popular with the ability for the presentation of "5.1 surround sound" through three sons.  When I try your procedure, I don't get separate recognition of each thread, as it is trendy and often end up with its 2.1 being eliminated in my 5.1 speakers, because somehow Microsoft has re-recognized the built-in USB port based his bar instead of the three rear wires plugged into the outlets provided by the manufacturer of the system.

    If there was ever separate 'Speakers' and 'Realtek' icons in the UI on my system, speakers are long gone and I can't get back them.  All I see is the Realtek driver.  I would like to see the two icons 'Speakers' different, I could mark "integrated 2.1" and "5.1 external '", in addition to the driver Realtek.»  How can I get these to reappear?

    Can anyone suggest a way to have two different sets of "speakers" recognized and identified in the Microsoft UI in addition to the Realtek driver?  If I could get because of this, I think that the driver would let me 'set as default' one or the other speaker set, and I 'software switching' capable of letting me choose the external speakers or integrated sound bar offers the sound.

  • Windows Media Player and a 5.1 Surround sound

    I recently bought a Dell Inspiron 660 and I use the speaker system, I had with my old computer - a set of very good quality Sony 5.1 Surround Sound speakers.

    I tested the speakers under sound settings - all speakers are appearing in the work. I also played music using Nero media player and Media Player Classic - everything works fine.

    However, whenever I try to play music in Windows Media Player - the only sound from two speakers?

    I'm confused here - I know that the speakers work, as evidenced by the sound test and the fact that they work with other media players, then why they won't work with Windows Media Player. Have you tried a few "fix - its" Microsoft - nothing has worked so far.

    I use Windows 7 (even on my old computer - incidentally where the media player worked well) and equipped with K-Lite codec pack.

    Anyone has any ideas - I use Windows Media Player the most and have all my songs stored there, so it's going to be a real pain if I can't use it and it's my favorite player, but it's just annoying and frustrating.

    Thanks for any help you can offer.

    Try this.

    -Go to the control panel
    -Find the icon of speakers
    -On the devices tab of reading, find your set of speakers and click Properties
    -Click on the enhancements tab
    -Check the box "Speaker Fill".
    -Click OK.
  • Surround Sound Device do not appear in Windows

    Hello

    I have my PC running via HDMI to a Denon AV amp, out for my LG Plasma and through the eye of the TV to my 5.1 system stereo. The problem is that Windows sees only the TV speakers, so I can't set up the skin in Windows. I can't use the PC output optical directly into the stereo, because she is disabled with HDMI output. Is it possible to select optical for audio in Windows when you use HDMI for video.

    I was hoping that the AV amp would be a solution, but it detects that it is connected directly on, so when I hit the "Speaker" button, it proudly displays 'TV - Stereo' and also will not output sound other than through the HDMI - in this case.

    I can't just plug the stereo speakers to the amp AV or because they have taken non-standard and the rear speakers are wireless.

    If anyone has any suggestions, they would be greatly appreciated

    See you soon.

    I read your post about the noise and wanted to help you!

    From my understanding, to reach 5.1 output, you need the outputs 3 analog stereo, or you will have to do it via HDMI.  I hope this helps.

  • a6233. SC - HD surround sound?

    Hi, I bought the a6233.sc about 7 years ago and did not have a reason to replace it since then. I added more RAM and a bunch of external hard drives.

    Now, I'm looking for buy a new receiver surround sound capable of HDMI and HD audio and my PC has become the center of the media associated with over the years, I want to make sure that most of the things she would always keep upward. This read on sites Web HP/realtek/Nvidia I initially thought that it would be no problem: sound card is ALC888S and although there no passage in the functions of HD formats, there no record of 192 kHz/24-bit and I have a software that decodes the LPCM sound. But now I just read an article that made me doubt if the sound card is integrated into the exit HDMI of Nvidia 8600 GT.

    Another question, is my PC has more muscle to handle a Blu - Ray player?

    Any help would be much appreciated I could prioritize significantly differently if things are not as I hope.

    Peter

    I understand that you want to know about the sound card and how it works with the 8600 GT video card HDMI output.

    I am not entirely sure about the line of products from Nvidia, but that's how it works on AMD cards.  The video card has a dedicated sound chip for HDMI audio output, which is separated from the dedicated sound system map.  It has its own drivers and resources in Windows.  It is also separately listed in Device Manager in the sound category.  I think it would be the same for Nvidia products.

    Do a ctrl + f search on this FAQ blu indicates the card 8600 is capable of playing blu - ray.  According to the specifications, the system came with 32 bit Windows Vista that would make the RAM max allowed 4 GB (3, 2-3, 5 GB usable).  If there is a large RAM available, it would seem that this would be sufficient.  The system came with a 2.4 GHz quad core processor which should be wide enough for blu - ray playback.  However, none of this is a guarantee.  Each blu - ray player comes with different reading software.  I recommend to look at the system requirements of the software (which should be listed) and compare that to what your system has.  As long as you are within the reading software, it should be fine.

  • surround sound in iTunes

    On my sound Windows 10 PC surround works in Windows Media Player, but not in iTunes. How can I change the config in iTunes?

    I had exactly the same problem and based on iTunes for a solution and after really engage with them, they are back and after testing what they suggested I have now answer that works.  As with all things all he needed was to know what box and the important thing to note is the solution lies not in iTunes, but in a simple setting on your Windows 10 sound settings.

    So the solution is the following:

    First of all, quit iTunes (if open), then go to control panel - sounds - select your speakers (probably failed you device) and then click Properties.  Then click on the enhancements tab and simply check the Speaker Fill box - click on apply and can test to see if you work by using the Preview button.  Surround sound on all 5.1 speakers should play.

    If so the next open iTunes and play your favorite song and it should play in a 5.1 surround sound.

    Hope it works for you - it did for me and is a solution supported by iTunes Support.

    If it does not you spread the word about this solution.

    PS I think this can also solve / resolve 5.1 surround for iMovie and other problems of his fellows.

    Enjoy

  • Option of surround sound clothes outside with HD4870 HDMI connection after installation of SP1 Vista54

    Clothes outside with HD4870 and HDMI connection surround sound option
    I just built an HTPC and installed SP1 Vista64 and I have a problem. I have a DFI LanParty very X 58-T3H6 motherboard and a VisionTek Radeon HD 4870 video card with HD audio. I have a HDMI cable to my Sony AV receiver and all I get is Audio stereo. The subwoofer never wakes from sleep, or AV receiver indicates anything but a stereo input.

    I have the RealTek HDMI audio device installed, and he says he's working properly in Device Manager. Under properties, what is proposed is stereo speakers. Surround sound is presented as an option, but it is grayed out and not selectable. All drivers are up to date from four days and I have the on-board sound card mother disabled in the BIOS and it does not appear in the Windows Device Manager, nor are there any other audio device except the RealTek HD HDMI audio device.

    Other HDMI devices, such as my XBOX 360, a surround sound very well via the AV Sony receiver.

    VisionTek support told me to install the RealTek HDMI driver, I did, but that's all the help they were able to give me.  The problem persists.  Surround sound is gray under sound properties for this device,

    I took the HDMI cable from HDMI port on the video card and plugged on my XBOX 360 and I get surround sound, so I know that the cable and the audio/video receiver is configured correctly.

    If anyone has an extra idea about it, I know you more!

  • Not Surround sound more on Blu - ray player after upgrade by MediaSmart

    When I used the Blu - ray player in my home theater, I selected the mode "HDMI pass" to get a sound surround. I came across a few new films that would not play and after the update from HP, the player would simply freeze as soon as there is audio present. I had to go to the Task Manager to close it.

    MediaSmart works fine on the laptop, but it only freezes when I use the parameter "pass through HDMI.

    I tried mode "HDMI pcm" and who does not work either. This Denon receiver there are five channels work but I get stereo sound on front speakers left and right. This seems to indicate that the Blu - ray player is not released in 5.1 surround sound and the laptop and the Denon receiver works fine.

    Supports the HP solution was to reinstall the older driver or try a system restore. I know that a system restore won't do anything. The problem is in the new software. The new software does not work on my HDX18 when he was under Vista, it did not work when I upgraded to Windows 7 and it does not work on my new dv8.

    I tried to contact CyberLink to let them know that the upgrade is giving problems, but I think they ignore me.

    Personally, I think that HP or Cyberlink just forgot to add the drivers for a 5.1 and 7.1 surround sound.

    If anyone find a solution to this one that I wouldn't be surprised. I'm quite sure I've covered all the possibilities, but you never know.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thank you

    HP had me download a software called K-Lite which is a software codec repairs and replacement. After the upgrade of the software more returned to get my blu - ray movies to work, I ran K-Lite and that did the trick.

    http://www.codecguide.com/download_kl.htm

    I used the mega version, but you can probably use the standard.

    It is a software complex with many choices and I changed it to accept a sound audio surround and DTS 7.1. There were several boxes prompting me to remove the broken codec which continued for some time and when it was all thanks to I was surprised that it worked.

    Meanwhile CyberLink itself actually got back to me and I was given some temporary free software provide I run their diagnostic tool for them on my dv8 for helping them understand my problem. It is still pending.
