Partial WHQL notice
Due to Realtek not providing regular updates to HDXRTU.CAT
, HDXRT.inf
, HDXRTSST.inf
and HDX_GenericExt_RTK.inf
, 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 generic WHQL compliant codec component (version 6.0.8924.1) 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.
Due to absence of valid and updated copies of HDXRTU.CAT
, HDXRT.inf
, HDXRTSST.inf
and HDX_GenericExt_RTK.inf
(or equivalents) new hardware IDs introduced since 6.0.8825.1 are at most partially supported and those introduced since 6.0.8925.1 are completely unsupported.
