Yes, I mentioned in my two edits that that was the problem. I now downloaded a true DVD-A sampler iso and it now works with that also!!! So yes, the DVD-A must be the DVD equivalent of DVD-A. I am sure BR DVD-A will be nice to have, but maybe mpd is not capable. I wonder if any module exists in your experience.

EDIT2: SO I was correct. It has to be pure DVD-A, not BR DVD-A which is stuff like DTS_MA etc. The DVD-A iso format also opens now !!!!!!!!! Excellent!!!! EDIT I think my ISO is not pure DVD-A. I have to check this? It maybe bluray DVD-A....that will not work , right? [[[ No it fails. mpd crashes. SACD ISO still works. decoder { plugin "dvdaiso" no_downmixes "false" no_short_tracks "false" playable_area "stereo" } update: reading DVD-A Best of BDA disc 1/best of disc 1 bda.iso Segmentation fault...

Thanks, Maxim for replying. I am happy to report I got SACD ISO working ! It plays quite well for the trials I did. Thank you for your source code. For DVD-A mpd complained about my dvd-a iso.. Yes, I have the decoders in mpd.conf like this: If there is anything else to add please let me know if this can be improved. decoder { plugin "sacdiso" dstdec_threads "4" edited_master "true" lsbitfirst "false" playable_area "stereo" } For DVD-A I have this, but mpd got stuck on trying to read dvd-iso file...

Dear Maxim, I know you have been leading the way to get SACD ISO support on mpd player. I have your source code from some earlier work, but there are errors compiling this from source. I don't know if you are still working on it or there is a latest version and I got the wrong one. So I was able to transfer the SACD and DVD-A ISO modules from your source into Max Kellermean's mpd source and it compiled and is running fine for all other formats -- except of course it does not see the SACD ISO images....
