I picked up an Oppo bdp-103d a while back so I could have a reliable bluray player in the living room, and also have something to backup my SACDs. Since I do most SACD listening in the car, or on my other Oppo player, it's been a while since I played an SACD on this player - but I do rip them frequently.
The other day, I threw in a single layer stereo SACD, and got an unknown disc error. Eject and reinstert, same error, won't play the disc. I grab a 2nd disc that's nearby, also happens to be stereo only single layer, same error, unknown disc.
So I spun up the ripping software again, start a rip of the 2nd disc, and - it's ripping without issue.
I need to do more troubleshooting - see what it does with hybrid discs, multi discs, throw more discs at it, but wanted to get the facts down to start with, and start asking the question - anyone else see anything like this? Unknown disc error suggests a hardware issue recognizing the disc - but successfully ripping a discs suggests there's no hardware issue as the hardware is able to read the data off the disc. The player is regularly used for dvd and bluray playback without issue. This is a rather confusing set of circumstances, the tests completely contradict one another.
