Partial WHQL notice
Due to Realtek moving HDXRT.inf
and HDXRTSST.inf
hashes from hdxrt.cat
to hdxrtu.cat
in 6.0.8825.1 and the absence of a hdxrtu.cat
copy for current version, it wasn't possible to make a Realtek UAD Generic package for old systems that is 100% WHQL compliant. To workaround this setup installs latest WHQL compliant codec component (version 6.0.8874.1) with hardware support application, audio effects and service components taken from latest version and then a force updater is used to replace the old codec component (RTKVHD64.sys
and RTAIODAT.DAT
) with its latest version and perform appropriate patching.
Due to absence of valid and updated copies of HDXRT.inf
, HDXRTSST.inf
and HDX_GenericExt_RTK.inf
(or a renamed copy it), new hardware IDs introduced since 6.0.8825.1 are at most partially supported.
Realtek Audio Control v1.9.213.0.
