  1. Bitrate is greyed out in sound properties Windows 10


    Acer Aspire 3 A315-51

    Windows 10 1803 build 17134.858

    Realtek HD Audio (SST) driver version 6.0.1.8122

    Audio Codec ALC255


    The option of 44.1kHz bitrate (default format) in Stereo Mix is greyed out in the properties of the above system. It is available for the Microphone and Speakers, so it is clearly capable of running at that rate, indeed it defaults to 48kHz.


    Options available for the Microphone are 2-channel 16 bit 44.1khz and 2-channel 16 bit 48kHz

    Options available for the Speakers are 16 bit 44.1kHz and 48 kHz, and 24 bit 44.1khz and 48 kHz.

    The Stereo Mix ("What U Hear") is set to 2-channel 16 bit 48kHz and the drop down box is greyed out, no ability to change it.


    I've tried different drivers for the Realtek HD Audio with no luck, and would like to use 44.1 for some third party software, where lots of settings default to that.


    Is there something I'm missing, or is it an insurmountable limitation of the Realtek system?

    No sound windows 10 after update, cant change bitrate

    Hello, I recently updated to windows 10 from 8.1, and the sound doesn't work. I've uninstalled, and reinstalled drivers from both windows update, and the manufacturer. This computer is an Acer switch 10 SW5-012. Also, as states in the title, I can't change
    the bitrate. It is grayed out. Please help ungraying the input box where the bitrate is, as many online sources, many even on this community, have suggested to lower the bitrate. Any and all help is appreciated.

    sound distorted after windows 10 anniversary upgrade

    This is where I'm at on my HP laptop with Windows 10 and the Anniversary update.

    I completed step #3 "hardware and sound" but that took me to an option for "sound, speakers." There was no "properties" as step #4 suggests. I selected "sound, speakers" and then found "properties." After selecting "properties" there was no "enhancements
    tab" as step #5 suggests.

    Regardless, I then uninstalled the realtek audio driver. I noticed that when I did this without restarting my laptop that the sound was now tinny, but not distorted as it was previously. After restarting, the sound was again full, yet distorted.

    Realtek still shows in my programs list, though it shows no memory is used.

    Thanks for your continued help.

    Bitrate is greyed out in sound properties Windows 10

    Music streaming bitrate fixed

    Hi,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    We understand that you want the bitrate frequency to dynamically adapt and change, I suggest you to please

    send your feedback to Microsoft
    with any suggestion you have with this feature, which will help us improve Windows 10 for all the users who have the same requirement as you do. However, to get a better sound output, you
    can also enable the sound enhancement from the same speaker property.



    Regards,
