realtek drivers for sound card and recording

S

sgopus

my new pc is less than a year old, my old pc is going on 5-6 years old, but
the old one allows me to record what I hear, so I can play whatever using WMP
and record it using different software.
the old pc has a creative sound blaster.
Does anybody know of some good drivers for my new onboard realtek sound card
that allows the same function as the old pc?
Realtek doesn't show a what you hear for a source of recording, just the
sound mixer. maybe they are afraid of a copyright violation.

Realtek is real junk for windows OS due to the fact they refuse to get
thier software/drivers digitally signed by microsoft WHQL....Either way,
for recording software,download WM encoder 9 series,locate @ WMP/downloads.

Why is that such a big deal?

More and more hardware manufacturers are also starting to refuse going
to get their drivers "signed" since they must "pay" for the "signing"
each and every version they "publish." Even Sound Blaster has stopped
getting their drivers signed (for some time???)

The Realtech drivers might already have the "Recording" features in
them but as most sound card drivers, these features are not active.
Right click on the Volume Icon, Select Open Volume Control and select
Properties. Then, check in the "recording" section.

Thanks for the tip, however I have checked out the recording side of the
software, looking for the option of "What you hear" as this is what creative
uses, it isn't there.
I already have WMP, I am trying to use Jukebox as it allows me better
recording options, but still no "What you Hear" just the system mixer and it
doesn't pick up the sound if I play a midi file, whereas the old system would
just fine. a difference in soundboard software I think.

Note that not everyone calls it "what you hear".

My Analog Devices onboard stuff calls it "Wave Out Mix".
Does exactly the same thing. You will need to enable it in
Recording Mixer>>Properties as it's not usually turned on
by default.

This will enable recording of "What you hear".
This also created a nuisance when using "Windows Explore". When sound
or video file are displayed, a "Windows Host Process (Rundll32) has
stopped working" error repeatly is shown. With a little research, I
found that closing the window is all you have to do (no harm). Yes,
copyright violation could be a problem.

You can get newer drivers here http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/ or on
MB manufacturer's website. I've had better luck with the MB sites- the
drivers are better geared to their chipset.
