The drivers also install a program called Xear Audio Centre, in this software you can change inputs/outputs and some EQ controls etc. Rather than using the supplied CD I downloaded the drivers from their website, on the products page. I opted for this as I thought the other ports would come in handy, and I had previously used StarTech products too. I wanted this to get SPDIF out from my PC to an old sound bar I was using. Save the 6+ hours I spent trying to get this working and go buy something else, perhaps a Asus or Soundblaster sound card.

Even forcing a 5.1 encoded MKV movie through VLC it wouldnt pass 5.1. And then the only way to get it to push 5.1 was through the troubleshooting options in win10, but as soon as you close it, it'll swap back to 2.1 PWM. The only way I managed to get 5.1 Dolby was with uninstalling all drivers/software made for it and just letting windows 10 install some default audio drivers. Well the most I could get with supported software was 2.1 PWM, not 5.1 Dolby/DTS. Well it kind of worked, I was predominantly after 5.1 over toslink optical to my Onkyo receiver.
Have a dig around the internet and then find out the exact DAC inside to find some software. The recommended software just straight up doesn't work. Cheap and tacky plastic casing, I can live with that, but the software, be prepared to trawl the internet for some half baked driver that's over 4 years old. This on the other hand, well it doesn't deserve the StarTech branding. So StarTech, I've used loads of their higher end kit in one of my jobs (professional live streams and recording) with some very expensive cameras, it all works out the box first time and is built like a tank. I see from comments on this device and similar items, buyers Review and think it will not work on Win10, when in fact it will. They do not appear to have updated their CDs, documentation or instructions to suit. Manufactures using this ship set do not explain Drivers are now native to Win10 since Sept. The Win 10 system for this was implemented in Sept 2019, but chipset manufacturer now states often That they do not provide Win10 drivers. Here you can select the “7.1 surround sound” option, and a new window will open next to the first.īy connecting a speaker or headphone Sequentially into each output socket, Individually “test” each channel by clicking on the Specific individual speaker mini icon in this new window.
