AlienForce1 Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 -> What are the best practices for installing and running Audio Essentials? Audio Essentials works as part of your audio subsystem. To ensure a clean and successful install:Close all running applications, especially media players or any websites steaming multimedia content.Ensure that all service packs and patches are applied prior to installing Audio Essentials.Once installation is complete, restart the system and you are good to use the software.Source: SRS Labs -> Can I use Audio Essentials with Virtual Machines ? No. The VM architecture hijacks the Audio pathways and will not allow Audio Essentials to process audio. Source: SRS Labs -> You can try using a troubleshooter, it may find the services needed to run SRS go to Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Troubleshooting\Hardware and Sound, and use the Playing Audio troubleshooter.

egoist Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 SRS Audio Essentials is the latest one and the best in my opinion.Just look for version 1.1.14.0.Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madeinheaven Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 Well i tried SRS Audio Essential i even post the latest version inc crack here. It was not functioning properly in my 64 bit PC. I have to reinstall it cause i was loosing audio most places such as Firefox etc.Dfx is only good for Media Player does not work Firefox or IE. I am looking for a software covers all the audio function in PC.Well i will try to install SRS again see what happens.Buy the way it does work VM Virtual Machine i just test it now in there first and patch the files to use in Windows 7 real machine .Edit Note: Testing now SRS working all system all player inc. browser unlike Dfx yes i suggest SRS defiantly.

madeinheaven Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 SRS Audio Essentials 1.1.14.0Instruction:1.Close all the audio application if they are running.2.Install SRS but do not start yet.3.Stop the 'SRSHDAudioService' service (Start | Run | services.msc)4.Copy and replace AudioEssentials.exe in installation folder. C:\Program Files\SRS Labs\SRS Audio Essentials5.Copy and replace SRSDSPProxy.dll in Common Files folder [This only 32 bit] C:\Program Files\Common Files\SRS Labs\DSP Proxy*****This applies only 32 bit for 64 bit you just need to copy exe.files in step 46. Restart 'SRSHDAudioService' service (Start | Run | services.msc) 7. Restart The PC. Done!Tested on Windows7 SP1 64-Bit and VMware Work Station Windows XP 32-BitDownload LinkDownload Demo:Front pageDownload Only Clean Crack: Site: http://www.mirrorcreator.com/ Sharecode: /files/KDUNBQTA/SRS_Clean_Crack.rar_links [?]Virustotal result 0/ 42Note: Crack in front page, full of Trojan, i decided to use crack in VMware and patch the necessary files and copy them for the real machine tested working. The beauty of SRS is, works all your application using sound system in your PC. Players, skype, MSN, browser etc, that makes it better than dfx.

rajeesh Posted June 23, 2012 Author Share Posted June 23, 2012 now using srs audio sandbox 1.10.2 . its pretty gud..like it.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnakeMasteR Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 I can only tell from my POV, i used both, Audio Essentials and Audio Sandbox. Essentials didn't work properly that message pops up on every start-up of Windows (clicking on "Start Service" every time). I wiped it away and installed the Audio Sandbox. Problems gone, it's lower in resource usage, easier to configure and it sounds better (for me). Also another program would be SRS HD AudioLab and it's the successor from Audio Sandbox.

SnakeMasteR Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 I used an older version (SRS Audio Essentials v1.0.45.0) not yours, mih, forgot to mention that. :) That window comes up no matter if you restart the service or not, it's like the program did not recognize that the service is started and it reverts back when you restart the pc. That is why i wrote "on every start-up". There was no way to make the service run and have it already run after reboot. Always have to do it manually. I tried almost everything you can think of. And now i will try SRS Audio Essentials v1.1.14.0 and see if there is any difference or at least this damn service thingy gone. :s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madeinheaven Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 This version should work with the working patched files i provided above post, i tried both Windows 7 SP1 and VMware XP Pro 32 Bit, since now i have no problem.Only problem i may think that, if you have a similar software such as DFX or Audio Sandbox you should uninstall them then do installation of SRS Audio Essentials 1.1.14.0. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olexijl Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 Well, i use DFX 10, it is for VLC as well. Never have problems. I tried SRS and am unsatisfied with the level of configuration and sound deepness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcs18 Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 @ rajeesh Had a similar issue as yours - managed to install successfully, though.

Only problem i may think that, if you have a similar software such as DFX or Audio Sandbox you should uninstall them then do installation of SRS Audio Essentials 1.1.14.0. ;) As for the service, nothing changed there, same issue like in the previous version i used. The fix works, the program works but the service is messed up. Maybe there is some kind of delay in the service that makes that happen. When i compare the Essentials with the Sandbox, there is not really a difference between the initialization of the service. I tried using Glary Utilities to delay all other services to make the SRS one start as first as possible. Tray icon appears, it stopped working (System.InvalidOperationException) like the guy from here. After accessing SRS from the Start menu i got the same pop-up with the service. I read about Essentials service is an interactive service, so i went into my event log and found this "The SRS Audio Essentials service is marked as an interactive service. However, the system is configured not to allow interactive services. This service may not function properly." so i would assume that the standard setting for that service (manually) should be automatically like described here. For me the Sandbox sounds better anyway but to know that Essentials did not work or i can't get it to work makes me wonder why (when the Sandbox works). I gave up on this, i reinstalled the Sandbox. :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
