Realtek HD Changing Jack output reassignments ( FIX )

ignatzatsonic :

When I try to pm I'm told by the forum that I don't have sufficient permission or that I'm pending activation. My account must be too recent. I apologize then for the brief off-topic!

I've got a P8P67 pro, thus with an AL887, and a very unsophisticated sound setup (2.1 system and headphone + mic for gaming). I have not noticed anything special regarding sound output quality which is on par with my previous ALC889A-based system (though I am of course no true audiophile), but I had to activate the mic boost by 10dB, which I don't remember doing on my previous LGA775 board. Other than that, nothing in particular, hardware and software work exactly like previous versions (except - of course - for the jack reassignment which, on my previous box, could be done through driver management on all back panel jacks and is now limited to the front speaker/headphone green jacks of both back and front panels).

I think you are right about your lack of PM. I tried to PM you and that link was unavailable, so you don't have inbound or outbound--yet.

Re sound: all I need is 2 channel, left and right, working with headphones or over a 2 channel home stereo, with recording capability through Audacity.

I'm less interested in "sound quality" than I am in functionality.

Can you confirm this capability:

Recording "what you hear" aka "stereo mix" with the Realtek chip?? Like if you went to youtube and heard something you liked. Easily recordable???

That capability is often difficult on Win 7, depending on sound card/drivers. Much more difficult than XP or Vista.

If you later develop issues not known now, after you get PM going, I'd appreciate a PM. I probably won't buy for a couple of weeks, but would like to know what I am likely to encounter.

Oh---I will be using 64-bit. Are you using that or 32?

Still no pm, sorry, so I'll quickly answer that here. Yes I had access to the stereo mix recording source in the sound menu of the control panel, and I could successfully record (with Windows basic recorder) the sound from a Youtube clip, as you suggested (although the recorded sample sounded much lower than the original clip, but I did not spend much time tinkering the input level). Quite interesting in fact, I had never really looked up how to do this, now I know

I'm using a 64b Pro edition of Windows. I'll keep you informed if I find out anything worth mentionning about this sound chip!

Mappings are saved in the following location "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E96C-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}\0000\Settings\DevType_0888_SS147b1083 or ending in DevType_0885_SS18490890

"Pin00" = Rear Green-Coded "FR FL" jack
"Pin01" = Rear black-coded "RR RL" jack

"Pin02" = Center/Subwoofer
"Pin04" = Mic-In

"01 00 00 00" = Mic-in
"02 00 00 00" = headphones
"04 00 00 00" = Front speakers
"05 00 00 00" = Rear speakers
"06 00 00 00" = Center/subwoofer
"07 00 00 00" = Side speakers

Example if i want "Pin01" = rear black-coded "RR RL" jack to be front speakers all i have to do is Pin01 - 04 00 00 00.

What about LINE-IN? Why is it not included in the list?

I'm trying to get the card to recognize the input thats currently set to mic-in as a stereo line-in. would that be "08 00 00 00"?

Man THANK YOU! IT WORKS!!! I can't even believe it..

For Others..
THe specified location is to be found ONLY AFTER INSTALLING Realtek drivers.. in REGEDIT.. look for:

"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E96C-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}\0000\Settings\Drv6299_DevType_0862_SS18490862"
There you will find PIN00, PIN01..all to PIN07
And to be shure you find Pin00-07.. I just plugged-in and out all of jack inputs/outputs while PC is running.. and refreshing regedit..
Then after changing for example PIN01 from 02 00 00 00 to 04 00 00 00 please DO RESTART to take effect..

And now i made even two front speaker outputs working in place of one.. Now i can plug my AMPlifier in one and headphones in other and dont have to unplug them every time i want to change audio peripherial...

After Update Realtek Drivers i cant get 5.1 sound

Hi!!
I had 5.1 sound working perfect on Windows 7 Ultimate 32 bit, but i decided to update because i had to change pin assignament every time i reboot the computer through Realtek HD Audio Manager.
I installed v2.57 of the Realtek HD audio driver, and now i am not able to get 5.1 sound, only front speakers work

I connected the speakers and appeared 3 entries in Windows registry

Pin03 : 02 00 00 00
Pin05: 01 00 00 00
Pin07: 00 00 00 00

When i change the output assignments via HD Audio MAnager, registry looks this way:

Pin03 : 02 00 00 00
Pin05: 06 00 00 00
Pin07: 05 00 00 00

I change Pin03 to 04 00 00 00 but nothing happens...Am i Missing something???

Thanks!!!

Hi, thank you very much for this post, it has been enlighting.
My issue was the following: my case frontal jacks just sucked, so my idea of having a 5.1 system + headphones (when I need to concentrate/have a better surround sound for fps games I like to use headphones) was difficult.

The thing is that heapdhones didn't work right through the front ports, so I wanted to "clone" the "Frontal Speaker Out" of a 5.1 system output. I did it with OP's info, it worked like a charm.

I have one difficult, though. My home theather doesn't have volume, it always plays at the same level (unless I change it from where I have it connected, ie my pc of course). Compared to the HT, the headphones sound really low, so I wanted now to go a bit further and also change the volume of the port where I have my headphones connected.

Seeing the keys in the registry make me feel this is possible, but I'm just lost and I don't have a clue to where to begin. I mean, there's a lot of Vol0_RearLineOutWave3_{blablabla} and Vol1_RearLineOutWave3_{blablabla} keys that, from the first three letters, I suppose manage the volume for each output. But the value of the keys and the "blablabla" are all in hexa and I don't really know what do they translate to... anyone has any clues?

Hi there, I have a problem, that I broke my headset jack, and now when I put something in it it's not holding well


So I fought that I could somehow change the MIC jack with HEADSET, but when I go to

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E96C-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}\0000\Settings\Drv6299_DevType_0862_SS1179ff02

and change PINs number from 01 to 02, and from 02 to 01 where nothing happens. I tried restarting computer, I downloaded newest realtek drivers, when I change from 01 to 02, nothing happens, if I unplug the cable and plugin it again and restart regedit the numbers change to their defaults no mater I restart the computer or not. If I restart the PC and don't unplug the cable, speakers still won't play


Any suggestions ?

Sounds I have no idea problem

Hello I plugged in a cd thingy to my pc yesterday and my pc flashed on and off then my sound just didn't work

I have done reinstalling uninstalling drivers I did lots of stuff off here but I think my problem may be slightly different. I will post a screenshot of everything I can see..the audio is showing the audio is playing but I have no sound.

I need help I'm a youtuber I need my SOUND!

and in reg edit there is no audio settings it's crazy.

And I also need to change it to the speakers I managed to at one point then it changed itself back and messed up. even when I changed it to speakers it didn't work.

I have the EXACT same problem. Driver version 2.58.

HI,

I'm pretty much a computer noob when it comes to changing things in regedit.
My front speaker output gives me only sound on the left. So i want to change my line-in to front out. When i was using XP this was possible. In Windows 7 it is not.
This site shows a way to do this but it doesn't work for me.
I have a Asus p5k se motherboard with onboard realtek audio and i'm using a 5.1 speaker system.
When i go to regedit it only shows Pin00 and Pin06. So I was wondering where is the rest? Can i just add them?
I've tried to plug the front speakers into Line-in and change the Line-in into 04 00 00 00 and i have rebooted the computer but still it only works when plug the speakers in the green output (front out).
Is there anybody who can explain in simple English (so that people who don't know that much about computers will understand haha) how to make it work.
Or is there a program out there to download in which you will be able to change this?

Thanks in advance!
Greetings

Edit: I do have the latests drivers from the realtek site.

Thanks

Changing the 3rd connection from side to rear fix all my problems. Such an easy fix, surprised it isn't part of the driver yet.

Motherboard: Intel DG55WH Media series (7+2 Dolby Digital Live)
Codec: Realtek 889
Speakers: Logitech Z560 5.1

Hello,
I need some help.

My green connection is broken so I understand that I can use any another connections.

So I tried edit "Drv6343_DevType_0885_SS8086293e"
Pin2 = from 06 00 00 00 To 02 00 00 00
[pin2=CENTER/SUB]

so i do not hear anything

 

[Total]

FIXED - did a search in the registry for PIN , one was hiding .. Thanks people , this is a nice community ..

 

[Hrishi1992]

yup yup, i want to change my jack to front.. i tried ur method but "settings" is not found.. please take a look.

 

[Saito]

This actually very interesting.

I have a 2.1 setup for my audio and that is B*TCH to get working properly. I really don't understand why they don't have a 2.1 profile.

But with this I could probably make an reg file I could store somewhere that will setup my speakers correctly with a push of a button.

*giving it a go*

 

[windows7user1]

I have a problem along the lines of this thread.

I can reassign the jacks fine in the software ( I want them all to be front speakers for my 5.1 system) and in the registry, all the pins are assigned as 04 00 00 00, however, every time I restart, the jacks revert to their original settings.

The registry values are still 04 etc every time, so Im not sure whats happening...

Any help anyone?

 

[Hashem]

nice trick

I've tried following the instructions but I only get as far as HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E96C-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}\0000\ and no further than that. I've installed the realtek HD drivers but I still don't have a folder called 'Settings', let alone the strings that should be in that folder.
