How to enable SRS and WOW effects?

[berryracer]

I just read this on the ASUS forums and my Notebook is similar to the one the guy below mentioned as it has a Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround system or whatever they call it....

I wasn't exactly able to find how to enable that setting within MPC. I don't use WMP and I hate its interface

Any way to achieve this setting using MPC or perhaps through playing around with the Win7Codecs/x64 Components settings?

I am currently running them using the Shark007 recommended settings

For some Reason they aren't enabled and the speakers aren't using the full edition of the computer stock installed software. when you enable them.



YOU TRULLY freaking get a amazing surround sound a LONG with that bass feeling! To see the big difference Play a movie via Windows Media Player. Then follow these steps!!

1 .Once you are playing a Movie or a video via Windows Media player, right click the movie screen.

2 .go to Enchancement, Click on SRS effect. you should get a attribute option, Enable it and blast the Bass to max and WOW effect to max.

(by the time you Enable this you should REALLY hear a HUGE difference of sound quality)

3 .now go again to enchancement menu, click on Dolby effect. Enable it and switch it to Threater Mode ! NOW it sounds freaking amazing!!!!!

4 .Once you enable it. it will now automatically be heard on everything you play (youtube, computer system, movies etc)

VOILA!

PLEASE some one test this and tell me if it worked. BECAUSE this is freaking amazing!!!!

oh and make sure you have the lastest realek drivers along with THX truStudio Pro (and have it on external speaker mode also )

I am not sure, but i really find it odd that it isn't enabled when you first purchase the laptop. quiet wierd?

This has nothing to do with codecs.
It has everything to do with the 'system'.

I think (although not 100% sure), this has to do with 'onboard' audio and NOT audio through the gpu.

I am unable to teach you how to use your 'system'.

Oh yeah I know it has to do with the built in Audio and I didn't expect you to teach me how to use my system

All I wanted was to know if there is a way to enable SRS and WOW effect through the codecs because I know in Windows Media Player you do have that option.

Anyway, nevermind...

Oh well, I installed WMP 12 for now and Turned on WOW and SRS and it did make a difference. Guess ill stick to using WMP12 + Win7Codecs + x64 components
