Anyone know of a utility for ripping blu-ray audio?

I think you should buy the J River product. It's an excellent management tool for tagging your library data entries. It also is a good general player in its' own right. $20 bucks or so isn't a lot to ask, is it?

I have experienced the same thing on a few discs. In such cases I generate the .iso file and then use another tool to convert the iso file to multiple dsf files. I like J River for this and for general file, tagging, and management.

I also have the OPPO 105D. I made a post recently which had the necessary files as an attachment. Look for it and download it.

I suspect your IP address has changed for the BDP 105. The default is to use DHCP for address assignment. Which means that the address can change whenever the OPPO or your network hardware is restarted. This is why I like to use a fixed or static address for the OPPO. If you decide to use a fixed address, be sure to specify (and record it for your info) a unique one that is below the DHCP starting index. I typically specify my router to use 100 and up for DHCP addresses, leaving 99 and below for static assignments. Go into the setup screen of the OPPO and determine its' current IP address. The from your PC, open a DOS command shell and issue a ping command using the Oppo's IP address such as: ping 192.168.0.29 (replace the address with your players') You should have successful IP communication. If not, fix it before going further.

I believe this version of the AutoScript folder should work for you. I'm using an OPPO 105D and am controlling the rip using the Sonore application from a Windows PC, specifying the appropriate IP address assigned to the OPPO player. I like to use a fixed address on the OPPO so that I don't have to look it up every time I want to do a rip. SACD.zip

Using the Sonore HI on a Windows system, I too have have found that the OPPO 105D will always hang when a "Quit" is initiated after an "Execute" command was executed. I've found the only way to recover is to completely pull the power from the OPPO for a complete reboot. In addition, the directory created on the windows system is locked and cannot be deleted without rebooting the Windows system.

The ability to ping the Sony S590 only means that it has successfully connected to you IP network. The ability to run the iso2dsd or telnet to the Sony requires that the Sony operating system has support for Telnet or the command set used by the iso2dsd program. It may not. The failure of putty indicates that the Sony doesn't seem to support telnet. This means you'd have to get the Sony to load the appropriate commands upon insertion of the memory stick. In the case of the OPPO, this successful loading is indicated by the drawer opening itself after the software is read from the memory stick. After that, you could try the Sonore application which will need to be set to use the Sony's IP address.

I'll make a couple of observations: The 192.168.0.17:2002 is a specific IP address which will most likely not be correct for another user's network connected player. The :2002 part is a "port" number and would be the same for all users. The 192.168.0.17 is the IP address which is explicitly set, or more likely, assigned automatically by your network router. Because you'll need to specify the correct address when doing the SACD rip, you should probably assign a fixed IP address to your disk player using it's setup menus. The correct address will depend on the your router's DHCP settings. These are based on a root network address such as, in this case, 192.168.0.1 (all other IP addresses would be the same except for the last number which would be greater than 1). DHCP allows you to define the lowest number for automatic assignment. I like to choose 100 so that I can manually assign fixed or static addresses below 100 and let DHCP auto assign addresses above 100. Using this example, I would set the disk player to a fixed address (using the disk player setup menus) to 192.168.0.60 and then remember that whenever needed, such as the setting of the above command instruction on your memory stick, or when attempting to communicate with your disk player over the network with a program like iso2dsd.exe from Sonore iso2dsd.jar (Java based program). If you don't set a fixed address for your disk player and allow your player to get its' IP address automatically, you'll need to determine that address by examining your router connection tables every time you want to do an SACD rip. Clearly not very convenient.

Sorry for the late reply. Without thinking about it, simply copy the complete contents to the root of your memory stick. The extra files and folders/directories won't hurt anything.

zip files are used to "transport" sets of files between systems. They typically aren't used as zip files. You must "unpack" or "unzip" or "expand" the zip file in an empty sub-directory, so that the original files are presented with their original names and relative hierarchical directory groupings. You then move the set of "unzipped" files to their new desired location if they aren't already there. Don't be changing any names.

This is likely due to the difference in the representation for a line-feed between DOS and Unix based operating systems. You may have noticed that when viewing a DOS generated file, under Unix, additional characters which display as ^M are present.

Waynefi, I can't imagine that Modwright would have made any changes to the embedded operating system and firmware. I don't believe they would touch something like that which is highly involved. So there should be no issues with your modified player. But then, I'm only an electrical engineer/programmer, conjecturing on this. Steve

Kalman, Do you invoke sacd_extract from a telnet session with the Pioneer player? I find many of the posts on this thread to be vague. When dealing with interaction of 2 computers (PC/Mac and SACD player) the instructions need to be clear about running on the player or on the PC/Mac. The sacd_extract I supplied as part of a pair of attachments in a recent post, is intended to be executed on on the SACD player. If one examines the AutoScript, it can be seen that a series of commands are invoked which invokes the running of the sacd_extract program on the player upon insertion of the memory stick and the auto running of the AutoScript. In my pile of collected downloads, I do see another sacd_extract.exe and sacd.cmd, the former about 930K in size (3 times bigger than the sacd_extract on the memory stick for the Oppo), which doesn't seem to be for use on the PC. I've previously detailed the non-telnet flow I've used for the OPPO 105D which works completely. It sounds like there are several operational flows depending on the hardware Mac|PC with OPPO|Pioneer etc. When using telnet, one needs to always remember that any commands executed within the telnet window are applicable to the telnet host (the SACD player in this case) and not the computer one is sitting at. My flow was for a Windows PC running the Sonore ISO2DSD utility which communicates with an OPPO 150D using an AutoScript folder and files defined on a USB memory stick. So, if you're using something else, I don't know. Steve

Because that's not how it works. sacd_extract services requests on the SACD player. ISO2DSD make requests to the SACD player to extract the data from the disc and send it across the network to the computer running ISO2DSD.
