Connecting a SB Touch into Oppo BDP-95?


Been looking over the BDP-95 manual, and it seems there is no way to get a digital signal from the Touch and into the Sabre DAC in the 95. Am I right? Do you know of any modder able to add a digital input?

I have been thinking of getting an external DAC to connect my Rotel player as transport as well as my Touch, but I'm thinking the BDP95 has a good DAC with excellent mod potential, with SACD and Blu-Ray as icing on that cake. If I could connect the Touch to it I think the 95 would be it.

Sleepysurf,

I'm intrigued by how you are streaming 24/192 FLAC to the BDP-95. Please tell me more. I'm starting with computer music, so bare with me (I just use a PC and a SB Touch).

Do you have a hard drive with 24/192 FLAC files attached to the BDP-95 through the USB or eSATA? When you say "streaming" do you mean the files are being sent to the BDP-95, or are you telling the BDP-95 to access the hard drive and retrieve the file? If the former, what software are you using? If the latter, do you browse using the TV as screen?
I'm using DLNA streaming from a Netgear Readynas NV+ via Ethernet cable. Netgear has it's own proprietary DLNA software, but I'm also trying the dBPowerAmp Asset DLNA software as well. From the Oppo HOME menu (requires video display on to navigate), you select Network, then Server, and can then browse and select Standard or High Res tracks to stream. Right now, the Oppo can only "pull" files off the server, but I'm hoping Oppo will enable DLNA Rendering, in a future firmware update, which will allow files to be "pushed" via remote software.
I spoke to Dan Wright at RMAF 2011 last week and he told me that he will be offering the Digital Input Mod for the Sony XA-5400ES and, eventually, for the Oppo BDP-95 as well. He didn't provide a specific availability date.
