@Stephen: I will keep that in mind, I had those Marantz machines on the list but their price always exceeded my budget unfortunately.
@kbb762: That information is in fact unrelated, as this thread is about the self-authored "SACD-R" format, which I doubt is supported by any current Sony machines.

Sony is still the only one that still supports the SACD format.On Thu, Jun 20, 2024 at 10:45 AM tony harris <djtonyh...@gmail.com> wrote:Hi you all!
I know it is insane to dig up an almost 10-year-old thread, but you are indeed my only hope!Since most recent Bluray players have scrapped SACD-R support, I have been looking for an older, cheap player that has this compatibility. And somehow, after finding an offer for a used Oppo DV980H, I found your thread here and decided to buy it. It seems to have the latest official firmware which has NO support for SACD-R. I downloaded from here the 980.BIN file and tried the firmware update - but it does not work! The instructions say I have to put this file on a FAT-formatted USB drive, put that in the player, open and close the drive and it is supposed to find the update. But it doesn't! It just shows me the contents of the drive. I cannot seem to find any firmware downloads on the net. Does anyone maybe have something left? Or maybe the .ISO file of the update so I can try the CD-R upgrade?Thanks SO much in advance!

Not quite sure why it worked: when I press the "OSD" button on my remote after the update, it displays the same version of the firmware as before, 05.00.01.07, batch DV980-19-0722. (I was imagining you had sent batch DV980-21-1031, which is apparently a beta that Oppo withdrew: http://www.opendrivers.com/modeldriver/oppo_dv-980h-driver-download.html. I found that link after seeing your post.) But I'm not asking questions. Really appreciate the good turn, and am now enjoying the handful of SACD-Rs in my possession. Hope you can get it working, too. Maybe need to tweak some of the player settings that were reset to "default" as a result of the update?Best,Michael

Someone in this group (I believe Richard) posted the link a while ago and I've tried using the firmware. As a result though, I still cannot hear any output even though it does play back SACDs. I may be doing something wrong, but I cannot figure out what it is. You're welcome to try this firmware and please let me know if you were successful. Just use it like you would a normal firmware update (be cautious and don't interrupt).I've posted it to your to your email address.I hope it works for you.

I currently have the latest upgrade from Oppo, MVer: 05.00.01.07 Batch: DV980-19-0722
