You are very welcome.
It is a frustrating issue for those having problems using the DMP as they want.
Yes Iām sure they do. But I still donāt understand why they wouldnāt be willing to release the codes for a product they no longer manufacturer.
Capitalism. Or human nature. Take your pick.

PS Audio has tried to obtain the code with no success.
Perhaps you will have better luck prying it out of Oppoās hands. 
Just a guessā¦but perhaps it has to do with controlling ownership of their codesā¦
but it wouldnāt seem to hurt to release it by way of licensing their codesā¦
Somehowā¦I quite sure Paulās PS Audio team could come up with dandy one of their own
that would do a better job interfacing with DMP or DSDā¦
Anything those other guys do ā¦Paul and team can do far betterā¦I do believe thatā¦!!!

Code like that should be held in escrow, and published under an open source licence in a situation like this. Ideally this could be mandated.
Logitech released all the squeezebox and slimserver stuff for exampleā¦

Way to go jomaā¦like thatā¦but consider Oppoās home countryā¦ so mandating anything coming
out of there ā¦well it would be miraculousā¦
Like your idea better than mineā¦
Give me 5 minutes in a closed room with whoeverās in charge at Oppo, Iāll retrieve the code.

Now now Uncle Paulā¦no chatting up future secret opsā¦donāt want to let 'em in on
this ā¦do we ? 
it required political will in the west too to mandate it, about 15 or 20 years ago when we had the opportunity to control the beast that is proprietary software and DRM* used to protect it, but sadly they politicos (from all sides) sided with the big business interests to instead mandate DRM and make it illegal to tinker with ones own hardware and circumvent encryption designed to keep people out of their own devices (and also use of DRM in DVDs and on and on).
- Note - this is a bit OTT soap box, and Iām not sure that open access to all digital property would have worked very well either. as ever a sensible compromise would have been nice, and I believe that now the law is starting to recognise the right to modify oneās own devices and hence software.
Also note I am most certainly not advocating the theft of software or music, I have in the past been hungry awaiting a royalty cheque
