Annoyingly, my Pioneer ADV-696AV flashed with the modified firmware will not play stereo SACD-R discs. But it will play all the 5.1 SACD-R discs that I have tried.
OK, let me explain further. The stereo SACD-R disc is recognised as a DVD rather than an SACD. So playback of any part of the SACD-R is impossible right now.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
SACD area selection should be described in user manual... At least, SACD-R patch doesn't influence the firmware ability to play stereo area.

Does it recognize an original stereo SACDs?
I do not have any original stereo SACDs but I will try to get one.
I have ordered a stereo SACD

I now have Sony BDP-S380 and these same discs are not recognised on this device, either. I am burning to DVD-R with ImgBurn.
OK, I finally figured out the problem (after numerous failed attempts and lots of wasted DVD-R coasters): I need to burn slower...
2x burn speed gets me a good disc every time. :)
Burn at slow speed
Does anyone have the firmware ? the old website is down i have a pioneer dv-600av.
