and yes a Blu-ray player is needed and that's the main reason for doing this - it's very likely that at some point no one will continue to make players that can play both SACD and DVD-A discs, but BR players will be with us for quite some time.. |

you plug your player into a multichannel soundcard and record the 6 mono waves then re-encode into MLP.. I have a new sound card that has HDMI in so hopefully I can record the discs and avoid the D->A conversion I haven't tried yet till I could go the DTS-MA route |

In any case this is an ANALOG signal...and it is not passing high resolution anyway. Only way to get full digital is a hack to player to pass toslink out to card with toslink in.
no sacd has hdmi I think |

he is passing hi resolution audio throught the 5.1 out on back on unit via analog cable...this is not same as sending the audio via digital out (toslink). The high-resolution audio (say 96/24) is being processed by the DA converters on the player. So the poster is not capturing full bandwidth audio. DVD-A and SVCD do not permit full audio resolution pass through of digital audio data via toslink (digital out) or by coax (digital out). Digital out is only way to capute the audio data unimpeded, but as I said, this is not permitted in the DVD-A, SACD world for copy protection reasons. Only way can be done is to rip to hard drive, which you cannot for SACD.

The former audio card was a M-Audio 1010 - it had the 6 analog ins
My new card is the ASUS Xonar HDAV1.3 Deluxe Sound card - 192 kHz - 24-bit - It has HDMI in The Oppo 980 has HDMI out and will convert SACD to 24/96 LPCM and send this out via HDMI..this signal remains digital.. |

well yes sure I could do what I already have (Ie convert over to DVD-A) but I'm looking at DTSMA simply to go Bluray - I have a MC DVD-A player in the car and I can see these no longer being available soon - whereas I'm sure there will be affordable BR players for the car in a couple of years.. I have no experience with MC Flac - what options would I have to play them on standalone players both for your car and HT? - I would not want to be forced to use a PC to play them.. |

well for me I think you are out of luck as no encoder exiasts for u. stick to dvd-a only then...sorry. FLAC is not used on car decks..why do you need high resolution audio for a card deck anyway? Seems more trouble than it is worth. The exercise is fun to figure it out, but in the long run, you are still stuck becuse there is no working dtsma encoder for "regular" people.
Good luck in any case.... |
