Hi adydula,
Do you know if you can play HiRes files that way? 2496 flacs for instance.
To start playback you have to use the Oppo or you could also do that from the computer / sever? I'm asking because if using Oppo you would need a screen for selection and the computer already has a monitor.
Thank you

The Flacs I have were ripped with dbpoweramp, the same guys that wrote the ASSET UpNP transaltion code.

24 bit LPCM is supported by Asset and Oppo, but I have not been able to get the HD files to play at that bit depth. They play as 16 bit.

This issue has been discussed on the DBpoweramp.com forums under Asset etc...I called Oppo and they say they can play 24 bit Flacs, there is a switch in the advanced options of Asset to support 24 bit, I have tried this and is doesnt seem to work. Oppo thinks its a Asset issue, Asset thinks its an Oppo issue??? Go figure.

I can not play FLACS on the notebook from foobar or winamp etc, have to have Asset running as a service on the notebook, connect via ethernet, have the network selectable from the Oppo main menu, drill down with the Oppo interface, which is being displayed via the HDMI to the TV LCD, find the song, and press play.

Now I think you can do this from a PC with other natively supported files. So you could use other interfaces on the pc if they are DLNA compliant etc...there is a marvelous thread on all this at:

[quote author=adydula Having to have the USB key in the Oppo for you to see the menu is really strange.

Alex,

I finally find the right button to make it work right. After pressing different (I normally use the SETUP button) buttons on the Oppo remote, I pressed HOME button and wallah, the network menu came up without using the USB thumb drive.
Thanks for your help.
