I bought the creative xtreme music when xfi first came out for use in my htpc. I connected the sound card with my creative gigaworks s750 speakers to watch movies on my 42 inch plasma.
After the xtreme music died. I went out and bought creative xtreme gamer(as xtreme music was no longer around) without realizing that xtreme gamer did not hardware decode dolby.
Since the replacement of xtreme music with xtreme gamer; I have always had a problem with the clarity of dialogue in movies.
It was only a few days ago that i stumbled upon this issue of "hardware vs softwer" decode of dolby sound in creative sound cards while reading about daniel K fiasco., So now like any audio head, i desperately want hardware decoded sound from my xtreme gamer sound card for dvd's in my htpc.
As per release notes of the new xfi drivers (see below), I won't have hardware decoded dolby sound even, if i install the new drivers released by creative which supposingly allow hardware decoded sound as i own xtreme gamer.
Sound Blaster X-Fi Series with DVD-Audio Playback and Dolby Digital/DTS Decoding
So is there any moded driver out there which can help me get hardware decoded dolby sound from my xfi xtreme gamer sound card.
Thankyou in advance.
