Nothing new from Oppo either. I will ask them again after the release of their next firmware.

I use dsdmerge at the moment for merging DFF-files and creating a CUE sheet. It works via SMB and I have gapless playback this way.

I was using foobar2000 as renderer, with the foo_input_sacd plug-in component. Evidently, this isn't fussy about the MIME type of what's being streamed.

I know the LUMIN renderer works with MinimServer, and I know the Rendu works with JRiver, so it seems these aren't fussy about the MIME type either.

All this suggests to me that the compatibility issue is something that OPPO needs to solve, given that their player is currently incompatible with all media servers that stream DSD audio.
