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

I use Twonky to stream to my Oppo 93. Unfortunately, the Oppo supports
the VOB container format, but not AOB. I have FLAC files ripped from
most of my DVD-A's so they can be streamed via Twonky. No problem
streaming multichannel or stereo FLAC files ripped from DVD-A's.
However, since Oppo began supporting ISO's from attached storage, I
now play my DVD-A ISO's on the Oppo from an attached hard drive. It's
nice to have full menu control and access to any videos and the hi-rez
stereo tracks from the ISO's. The hard drive attached to the Oppo
also serves as a back-up to the ISO's on my PC hard drive. The only
hassle is disconnecting the attached hard drive and lugging it the PC
to synch/add files. There is currently no way to stream ISO's via
DLNA, supposedly because the DLNA protocol doesn't support it.
