@John,

Not a problem, only after I posted my request to you was when I finally understood that the issue was really the BV not accepting 88.2kHz and 176.4kHz audio signal via HDMI. It is kind of odd that it doesn't accept these sample rates but it does accept the higher sample rates of 96kHz or 192kHz...

Anyways, I wrote the Oppo customer service to inquire what my BDP-105D player was really doing when playing back SACD to my BV11 and, after some back and forth, here's what I got:

We have never seen a receiver which does not support 24-bit/88.2Khz PCM. If the receiver does not, then the player will sample down to 24-bit/48KHz.

Reading the above feedback from Geoff made me realize what a strong performer the Homemedia player in my V1 is!

However, it would be even better if  the Homemedia User Interface could be further enhanced.

Maybe we should make it a separate thread on the Forum to discuss this, but here is my wishlist for enhanced Homemedia Functionality.

Hi jans,

There has been a couple of wishes for this in different threads already.

Why don't you just do it?

I'll gladly join forces with you on that subject.
