I am starting to rip some of my CD's to JRiver. With Redbook is 16/44 the highest bit rate that can be captured. I have looked through the JRiver site and Wiki JRiver and can't find this information.
Thanks
Thanks
Then 16/44 it is. Thanks Mark
Ripping from SACD
This can't be done with a normal PC. It is possible using an original Sony PS3.
You probably just ripped the red book 16/44 audio portion of the SACD in DSD format.
When I play the tracks to listen the DAC calls it DSD. If I put a SACD in the player the DAC calls it SACD. If I play back a PCM FLAC file it calls it 44/16.
More puzzled then ever.
If it is only 44/16 and I am not insisting that not. Why, when I tell it to encode it as a FLAC file it takes 10-15 minutes but if I encode it as DSD it takes an hour? If it knows it's SACD/DSD format that it can't record why doesn't it just deal with it as a FLAC file? If I have it on DSD and put a PCM disc in it records it as a FLAC file.
Even more puzzled than 4 sentences ago.
It probably takes longer to rip as DSD vs FLAC because not only is it being ripped, the redbook layer is being converted on the fly as DSD.
You may be asking the wrong person. I am not sure which way it is done, if it is even done.
Hi Timm, One of the few thing I do know, as you said is, SACD is not accessible for ripping with a common optical drive.
I looked at the size of the file I ripped to 2 formats. I don't have the same disc ripped in DSD and FLAC. I did find tracks that were close in play time and for approximate play time of 4:40 the FLAC was about 45.MB where the DSD was 160 MB.
I hope that answers your question. If not try me again.
I just upgraded my Media Server to Windows 10 and to JRiver Media Server from 20 to 21.
My JRemotes continued to work without any change.
My Media Server is connected to my 65" UHD TV by HDMI, and by USB to the OPPO 105D. Windows 10 seems to handle the Oppo 105D USB driver much better. If I power up the 105D it flips over very quickly and if I turn it off the Media Server goes back to the TV which if fine for my RC Heli flight simulator or watching Ted Talks in the morning.
Now that I've built a USB to AMP trigger cable the Amp comes on with the OPPO and turns off with it, both have a slight delay.
I just finished ripping my entire CD library to FLAC and had JRiver setup to automatically rip when I insert a disk and eject as soon as it finished which let my do this "almost" brainlessly. Occasionally it would hit a snag on the information it found for a disk or ask me which disk it was from a number of variations.
I just saw where JRiver can upsample to 192kHz if I wanted. I may have to try that out.
JRiver may upsample to 384 khz.
