SACD Ripping using an Oppo or Pioneer? Yes, it's true!

[soares]

Hi guys,

I've got a Pionneer BDP 80FD and a Mac and I am ready to start ripping my SACD's.

Are you aware of a ripping guide for Macs within this 93 pages?

I found one for PC's, but unfortunately after a couple of hours reading the posts, I haven't found it yet. It's huge...

Could someone help me, please?

Thank you,

 

Jorge

Here are Mac instructions I wrote much earlier in the thread.

 

Please note that all the BS about having to install Java and/or having to disable System Integrity Protection on the Mac might not apply to you - I just included that in case.

 

Also, you have to download a Pioneer-specific version of the script (I believe it's labeled for the Pioneer BDP 160 but it will work with the 160, 170 and the 80FD).

 

 

Thank you so much Tmtomh.

 

I truly appreciated your help.

 

Kind regards,

Plus there's the additional satisfaction of the delicious irony that Sony's own gear is being used to undo Sony's obsessive attempts to lock down the SACD format.  (That same irony was there with PS3 ripping, but the greater availability of Sony BD players widely expands the group of people who can now enjoy this irony.)

Yes, in my view more than everything the copy protection killed the new format... so non sense...
