[SurroundSound] Re: Can you stream DVD-A Audio Object Files with a DLNA server?

I am currently creating ISO's of all my disc media, including DVD-V's
and Blu-rays, as well as my DVD-A's which are already completed. I am
quickly filling up lots of hard drive space, especially with the Blu-
rays.

Be aware that the one ISO that will not currently play on the Oppo are
the SACD-R ISO's. They will play on burned DVD-R discs, but not from
the ISO.
