Connecting a SB Touch into Oppo BDP-95?

If you follow the link I provided above to the Oppo review you will be able to read more.

Powerful connectivity options: The BDP-
95 is equipped with a hard-wired RJ-45-type
Ethernet port, a wireless-n Wi-Fi adapter, an
eSATA port, and two USB 2.0 ports. As shipped,
the player can play music, video, or photo files
from USB or eSATA drives, and can also stream
certain types of content from the Internet. It
cannot, however, function as a USB DAC,
although it unofficially provides DNLA Server-like
“Experimental Functions” that potentially allow
the BDP-95 to play digital audio files stored on
PCs attached to your home network.

I have tried both USB and e-sata in the Oppo-95. I found the sound of e-sata more to my liking.

Rwwear: I did read it, but don't see where they explain this. Maybe it's this, which I cannot comprehend: "although it unofficially provides DNLA Server-like Experimental Functions”. Looking at the Oppo manual the user interface didn't seem friendly or practical at all. Hence my question.

Dchan88: what do you use to browse over your music collection with the 95 and external HDD?

Yea, it does say experimental. So it could just need a firmware upgrade when available to address the situation. I have spoken to Oppo on the phone and they are very helpful in a small company sort of way.

Yes, you can brouse the esata harddisk contents from the TV output.

But 2 issues might be of concerned:

1) You need to update to the latest firmware version. With the original firmware, it will take more that a minute to detect the esata drive.

2) Even with the latest firmware, there is data transmission issue with the estat driver. When playing 192/24 flac file, sometime it chockes and causes the music to stop momentary. Situation is much better with 192/24 wav file. There is no issue with 96/24 flac. The above problems do not exist with USB interface, but the sound quality is not up to par.
