The below is true for the unlocked realtek R2.79 driver.

Websites in Chrome, IE, FF are just like the above, no change.

I get 2 channels only and LTE doesn't work at all in the test file. This is just like VLC with S/PDIF pass through DISABLED. I've tried tons of plex settings, nothing seems to work. I can confirm that it is playing 'original' file and there is zero transcoding taking place.

Plex, in Chrome, IE, or FF, is never outputting DTS or DD 5.1.Each speaker has it's own channel and the test file works flawlessly. VLC, using S/PDIF pass through option, works flawlessly and outputs DTS or Dolby Digital 5.1 sound through the optical output on my PC, to my receiver.When it gets to LTE channel, nothing plays at all, silence. The test file plays sounds only in the front L/R speakers one at a time as it cycles through all 5 speakers. VLC, with S/PDIF pass through disabled, output is 2 channel only.Windows Movie and TV player, and Windows Media Player output NOTHING.The below is true for either official Realtek driver file, and the built in windows 10 drivers (before realtek was even installed). I have an MKV version which is also on PLEX (which plays through a browser). My tests are always using a test DTS 5.1 file which plays sound in each speaker one at a time when DTS 5.1 is active and working properly. It is a far bigger headache to try and get the video to work right when putting all inputs in the receiver, and I decided it was time to let the TV handle all video itself. I get resolution issues, flicker, refresh rate problems, the list goes on. The receiver does NOT like the samsung TV as a single output. Just use HDMI switching on your receiver instead you idiot Wouldn't that be nice! HDMI goes through the Samsung TV in full 5.1 glory, but the Samsung TV will not output it back out to the receiver in the same format it got it! It sends it back to the receiver as 2 channel. Just use HDMI to your TV, and back to the receiver you idiot

This worked in WIN7 without any headache, and using the built in drivers WIN7 applied to the soundcard. The unlocked R2.79 drivers DO show that option, but more info on that below. Both don't actually show the DTS/DD output option. I have also tried the WIN10 圆4 drivers from Shuttle's site (linked above). I have tried Realtek's R2.79 drivers Win10 圆4. Windows 10, PC connected HDMI to my Samsung TV, and digital optical out through a Realtek soundcard to my Pioneer receiver (DD and DTS capable). See screenshots below of all of my settings screens: However there appear to be a few different possibilities, and while some noted to fix it using unlocked Realtek drivers, I have tested this myself with the following results. There are many forum threads around the web about Windows 10 breaking Surround Sound / 5.1 DTS / 5.1 Dolby, etc.
