Why doesn't HP make the Creative Sound Blaster Connect for my laptop officially?

Whereas, after I tested the combination of XPERI/DTS APO4 and Creative Sound Blaster Connect, it worked very well🤩

 

The UI Endpoint Equalizer can be changed as desired, I can use HP Audio Center alone, or I can use HP Audio Center + DTS Ultra UWP / DTS Sound Unbound, or I can also use all three apps (HP Audio Center+DTS Ultra UWP+Sound Blaster Connect UWP). For now, it's more convenient to use just one UI, because it's simpler. Besides, HP Audio Center it does have a lot of features🤩

 

For the extension drivers and APO (AudioProcessingObject) drivers used, they come from audio expert Alan Finnotty who created AAF Optimus for Realtek audio drivers.

 

For the drivers used (categories "Sound, video, and game controllers", "Realtek UAPO2", "Realtek Device Extension for HP", "Realtek Service") use the driver package from the Dragonfly G4 laptop. The Realtek driver version for the Sound, video, and game controllers category is 6.0.9788.1, from sp157063.

The SEAPO Extension preset used comes from sp154181 to produce renders and captures that suit my preferences. Meanwhile, I only use the SEAPO Extension preset from the latest version of SEAPO (2.0.11.61) as a support, because for some reason Windows always wants 2 drivers from SEAPO Extension.
