Did you try the Mac command line sacd_extract (without the GUI part)? https://www.videohelp.com/software/sacd-extract The Sonore sacd_extract frontend is Java program, so you need to have Java installed on Mac to get it running. https://www.sonore.us/iso2dsd.html ... and about foobar2000: then the only way is Wine. I don't use Mac, so more I cannot help you. No worries. It's alright. I usually use iSO2DSD on Mac. Please see my opening post. Just that ISO2DSD could not extract the files from this one particular Von Karajan SACD ISO. I got the error message: "illegal byte sequence" But I used Foobar on my old PC on the same SACD ISO as per your instructions and it worked. Thanks again Link to comment

Thanks again ISO2DSD stopped working on a track with the title 04. Boccherini_ Einleitung [Quintettino »Aufziehen der militärischen Nachtwache in Madrid«] I suspect it could be the symbols or double byte characters in the title that caused the error. Hopefully the developers fix this issue. Link to comment
bogi Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 Years ago, when I implemented ISO2DSF (my signature, Windows only), language specific characters in metadata were the last thing I fixed, based on findings of one classical music lover. This is generally not very convenient topic for software developers. i7 11850H + RTX A2000 Win11 HQPlayer ► Topping HS02 ► 2x iFi iSilencer ► SMSL D300 ► DIY headamp DHA1 ► HiFiMan HE-500 Link to comment

This is generally not very convenient topic for software developers. No worries. It is for most part a decent programme with only this exception in my usage so far. Theoretically I don't suppose there should be these limitations as Foobar also uses the same SACD Extract programme correct? Foobar has no problems decoding these characters. Link to comment

Foobar has no problems decoding these characters. ISO2DSD acts as GUI for sacd_extract executable so it does not work without sacd_extract. The foobar2000 plugin foo_dsd_converter does not use sacd_extract executable, so it need not to be installed for the plugin to work. i7 11850H + RTX A2000 Win11 HQPlayer ► Topping HS02 ► 2x iFi iSilencer ► SMSL D300 ► DIY headamp DHA1 ► HiFiMan HE-500 Link to comment
