What is the best way to integrate TIDAL playback into the BDP-2? I am thinking about subscribing.
Thanks!

It will be fully supported in summer.  Take a look at this thread: http://support.bryston.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=44&t=198

Thank you for the quick reply. I'll make sure I download the latest beta.
I did not realize the support forums started to work. Cool!

I have connected up a suitable DAC to my BDP-2 but I find that the Audio Devices page in MM does not provide any facility for seeing the DAC or checking a box as described in the manual. However I can play DSD64 files to my DAC so obviously it is recognized.

I am unable to get the BDP-2 to play DSD128 or DSD256. Is this correct?

I used my Meitner MA 1 DAC for DSD64 and borrowed an Oppo H1 for the higher numbers.

You need to have S2.10 2015-03-02 installed and select MPD 0.18.21 to play dsd128

Thanks, Chris.

I will change the MPD setting.

Is DSD256 not available at this time?

Re: BDP-2 Digital Player - Failed Firmware Upgrade

My Bryston BDP-2 is still on firmware 1.60.  Last night, via my iPad Mini (Safari), I ran a Firmware Upgrade to upgrade it to 1.75 or 1.76 (cannot remember right now).  It took forever to run and in the end it failed.  What next?

Hi guys!

Do all of these discussions about DSD and MPD apply to BDP-1 as well?

Cheers!

S2.06 2014-10-07   MPD 0.18.6
Hey Chris:
  Have not visited MM for a long time.  Use MPOD exclusivly for control.  Noticed the new version is
S2.10 2015-03-02 which is quite a jump from my above version.  Can I go straight to the new version or do I need interum versions installed first?

 The few times I did look at MM there was never an update message displayed.

  Thanks, Rich

S2.10 is was actually a complete redevelopment on a new Linux Kernel, so we went that long without any updates in-between. We have developed the firmware in such a way that you can jump any number of versions between updates.  Although in your case your just going from the second last stable to the most recent stable.

We have tested DSD64 on a BDP-1, not sure about DSD128.  We try to maintain the firmware in such a way that any features introduced aren't excluded from the BDP-1.

I am unable to persuade the BDP-2 to play DSD128.

Has anyone had success with this?
