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

[rmmeli]

I just discovered this thread for ripping SACD's. I have a couple that I would like to to rip. I happen to have a Sony BDP-S580. Has anyone ever tried to use this player to rip a SACD? It does not work for me but maybe it is my procedure. I have copied the Autoscript folder to a USB and plugged that in. Then started the player and all it does it go to the main menu and show me that I have a USB drive plugged in. In my Autoscript folder I have three files, AutoScript, AutoScript.TSS and sacd_extract. If I open up AutoScript in an editor I see this:

 

#MTKAT 0.xx script

CLI(CLI_exec cp /mnt/sda1/AutoScript/sacd_extract /)
CLI(CLI_exec /sacd_extract -S &)
CLI(CLI_drv.ir.rx.sq 0xaf000)

 

Have I the correct AutoScript and have I followed the correct procedure? Is there a way of knowing if this player will work or is it just trial and error? I know that there is a list of known working players and I can get one of those if necessary but I was hoping to use the one I have as it plays SACD's just fine.

Thanks everyone. I will look for a BDP-S590 and try and find the correct script 😀

Thanks for the help. Just ordered one on eBay.

I received my S590. Connected it up and inserted my USB drive. Sure enough the drawer opens and I can insert the SACD. What does the rip?

[rmmeli]

Got it thanks. I am using Windows. I picked DSF and multi-channel. I assume that is correct?

[rmmeli]

Thanks snafu_. I have got the files off one sacd. What is the recommendation for software to convert it to a format I can play like FLAC?

[rmmeli]

Thanks everyone for your help. I will try out the options and report back.

That is the reason why I wanted to do it.

Ted,

  I haven't got one yet. That is next on my list. I have just been playing sacd's on my bluray player. I am just starting on this journey.

Yes, I get it 😀
