Hello.
I noticed a price increase on the BHA. Is there a price increase on the BDP-2 ? What's the Canadian MSRP ? thanks.

Thank you James. I assume 17" black with blue lights to match my BHA is possible ?
If so, does the blue change the LEDs but leave the display green? Looks green from the images.
Thanks.

Hi

The display and the LEDs are blue but the LEDs are a deeper blue colour.

It seems there's been a change in the blue displays compared to my BDP-2 from 2 years ago. The glass overlying the display on the older units had a green tint, giving the display an "aqua" tint, whereas current blue displays appear a true blue. Is this correct, James? Current setup looks better integrated with the LEDs, IMO.

No I think it is the same lens its just shows up a little different in photos depending on lighting.

Hi James, I just received my bdp2 and love it just having difficulty playing dsd one I have comes out as 352.8 and the hd X 2 test file doesn't play at all. The file doesn't display on my iPad but I can see on the player display any ideas?

Make sure the BDA-3 is enabled as a DSD capable DAC in the Audio Devices settings page and you should switch the version of MPD from 0.17 to 0.19 (require a reboot before it takes effect).

James,
Is there any chance that the BDP-2 could read and self-extract SACD and Blu-ray iso files in the future (not sure how JRiver does this)?
David

PS-still getting "pops" with DSD rips.

Backup system. I have a BDP-2 with 1TB internal and two 4TB usb drives. I'm looking for ways to automatically back up all three drives, and also have the physical hard drive back up to a cloud based backup (Backblaze). Anyone had experience with backup up multiple drives perhaps via NAS?

If you have access to a computer which can "see" all of the storage devices on your network, then I've found FreeFileSync - http://www.freefilesync.org - to be superb and keeps the three copies of my entire music collection (two on local drives and one on a NAS) all nicely synchronised

Carbon copy Cloner works hassle free and most secure. Highly recommended albeit non free:https://bombich.com/
Simple mode and highly adjustable and automated if needed/wanted.
Cheers Marius

Ps

If you're on a Synology, cloud sync works great with various other cloud services . Careful with Cloudserver though, it eats your drives....

Thanks! Never heard of this, my loss apparently . Looks very promising. Great find.
