Better Audio from Videos by Using ReClock

After setting up the music player with kernel streaming to get better audio quality, I tried few programs which are Virtual Audio Cable, AsioRenderer, Asio4all, and ReClock that been said able to improve audio quality from a video. After testing all 4, I personally think that ReClock is the best as it is easy to setup and working well. You can download Reclock for free from:

1) After downloaded ReClock, just do a Full Installation with everything checked.

2) Then open ReClock. At the "Audio settings" tab, UNTICK everything.

    A) Set PCM to "WASAPI Exclusive".

    B) Pre-buffer Duration, leave it as "500". 

         OPTIONAL: You can test around and see which setting suit your personal taste ranging 25 to 1000.

    C) For Format set it to "24 bit int padded to 32" while for Sampling rate, it can be leave as "Same as input (default)" for normal users or UD100. 

         OPTIONAL: If your DAC is capable of better setting then set Sampling rate to your DAC max setting such as 96kHz, 192kHz or 384kHz.

    D) Set Quality to "Best Sinc Interpolation".

3) Go to "Video settings" tab

UNTICK "Use built-in estimator (recommended)" on both side as these settings may chuck up the videos after few seconds of opening.

4) Go to "Advanced settings" tab and UNTICK everything except (B) "Force ReClock to be loaded instead of default renderers (recommended)".
 
    OPTIONAL: TICK (A)"Give high CPU priority to player", this setting will let your player have higher priority over other software and ensure less lagging and chuck up.

5) Click "OK" and ReClock is ready to use. So everytime you open a supported media player such as Media Player Classic, Zoom Player, PowerDVD and etc, a box will pop up and ask whether to load ReClock or not. You can either choose to always load or never load. These setting can be change in (C).

Verdict
As usual, some may prefer the newly setup sound while some may not. If you do not prefer the newly setup sound, just install Reclock. Personally, i think it does improve the sound from a video by:
- better seperation of vocal and instruments
- less noise
