Hi Chris,
Not sure if this is covered before (probably), pardon me if it is.
Since BDA-3 de-embeds the HDMI hi-res audio out off bd audio and sacd's, I was wondering if hooking up a BD player to the BDP would allow us to rip the same audio content of these discs in MM or the soon to be released NN. Of course we now only have a USB connection, which probably is another story, but aren't you considering a HDMI connection for the next iteration of the BDP maybe..?
Would be wonderful if buying the BD audio of a recording could provide us with the digital files in one go. Saving the original bitstream of the DSD files straight from the source.
As it stands now, we have to buy both the 24 bit digital files and the BD/SACD of the same album(s).. While both containing the same source, we're only paying double for the carrier...
If not an option on the BDP, maybe a digital out somehow on the BDAx would allow us to safe that?
Cheers,
Marius
