AFAIK there was only one Scarlet Book standard for SACDs so it's a mystery why some discs are authored differently than others. Suppose it doesn't matter if you can extract the info but it is sorta weird there are only a few that mount and look like this. For the most part I would say that if you can find the converted files for the music you are listening to on HDtracks they tend to sound a bit better to my ears than the DSD to PCM on the fly. If you can play them natively (or sorta natively) they tend to sound better as SACDs. YMMV of course. On the fly does work but I think the HD stuff that comes from DSD sounds a bit better than conversion on the fly.--On Fri, May 18, 2012 at 8:44 AM, yeroc <corrwin@gmail.com> wrote:thanks for the response. i can't do SACD-Rs as I don't have a compatible player, but I finally got an answer and I am able to extract the DSF or DFF files and play them in foobar. Learn something new daily...now I'm familiar with this other structure for SACD. cheers!

While I haven't tried playing them in a software player, I can confirm that if you are using this for backup purposes, using the resultant ISO and burning it to disc will produce an SACD that can be played in players like the Oppo. I haven't tried a software player for these as they tend to sound better through the oppo. I can just confirm that some SACDs look like that and they will burn correctly. I don't know how well they would do in a software player since they seem to use a much different file system than almost every other SACD on the market. You might want to check on Computer Audiophile and post to SACD ripping part 2 and ask the folks if you can extract the DSF or DFF files from these kinda discs. I can just confirm that I've been able to mount only a couple and they show up with a TOC and such. The others won't mount at all. Not sure that helps but you're not crazy...--

Extra Terrestrial SACD iso I have is in a different form, foobar spits it out and my image mounter VCD reads it as UDF, unlike other isos that don't read in Windows. There are TOC files and folders 2CH and MCH with more TOC files and .2ch and .mch files (in the corresponding folder). Not sure what to do with it at this point, would love to check it out but not sure what to do. Thanks in advance!--
