    windows 10 build 16184 fixed yeahhhhhhhhh
    ""
    • Some audio drivers have an “encoding Audio Processing Object” feature; this is commonly known as “Dolby Digital Live” or “DTS Connect”. This takes the output of the Windows audio engine mix, encodes it (as Dolby Digital, DTS, or some other format) and sends it out over a S/PDIF optical link for decoding by an external audio receiver. An issue was introduced which resulted in this feature no longer working, which is now fixed.

    Trouble Enabling True 5.1 Dolby Digital / DTS Output via HDMI Audio Extractor on Windows 10

    Windows 10 and HD Audio formats. Dolby-TrueHD, DTS-HD Master etc.


    Since upgrading to Windows 10 I haven't seen any support for HD audio bitstreaming.

    Looking through the properties of my sound devices (trying to use Nvidia HDMI), only Dolby Digital, Dolby digital Plus and DTS Audio are listed.

    It used to work fine with windows 7.
