Sorry but this is misleading customers, big time. It's not a trivial feature to have it's function, documented in the manual, completely changed in it's operation. I wanted to use the L...
That's not addressing the separate L/R outputs and what they really are. I'm connecting the L/R signals to a 2 channel premap. The manual states those are always downmixed to stereo. That p...
I contacted support directly a while ago to get this sorted out. The manuals says those 2 outputs, which I circle in screen shots below, are always downmixed stereo (like the UDP-800 is).&nb...
So the L/R channels do NOT automatically downmix is what you're saying? In other words, they're not any different than the FL/FR outputs? The manual states the opposite, that the L/R outputs...
Sorry but that's not what I asking about, my query was strictly about the 2 analog outputs between the XLR outputs. From the manual: going from the highlighted portion, those outputs are suppos...
Ok, will do. Downmix setting; I assume meaning the Speaker Configuration? I have it set to 5.1 channel, the subwoofer is turned off. Unfortunately I don't have a center channel, that's...
I was playing a music (mainly) Blu-ray disc which has 3 selectable audio encodings for the album (XTC's "Oranges and Lemons" remastered CD/Blu-ray set): DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 (24 bit / 96kHz) L...
can anyone answer this as "no" (does not support) or "yes" (does support)?
I was wondering if the player supports cue sheets and/or m3u playlists. I ask this since on an AV forum thread dedicated to the UDP900 one poster said Magnetar tech support told him it does ...
I just installed the update on my unit. I tried a few CDs that exhibited clipped audio previously. No more clipped audio on them. 😁
I mostly use a soundbar with the TV, the audio gear was for occasional use only. That's why I don't turn off the HDMI audio.
Setting HDMI to off requires going into the player's settings, turning the TV's sound to zero is easy. I'm lazy. 😁 I did try turning the player's HDMI audio off, thinking it might help...
I want to make sure it's clear how I connect the TV and my external audio to the player: - HDMI output 1 from the player to an HDMI input on my TV (a 4k/60Hz input); I use an HDMI 2.1 certified ca...
I found out today that a recent firmware release removed the analog audio delay function in the UDP900. I don't know if the 800 model had the delay set feature. Unfortunately that makes usin...
Found out something recently via high-end audio/video forums and from tech reviews of the newer Sony TVs. The Bravia 7,8 and 9 have more than 200ms of input lag from the HDMI inputs, the player is...
Thanks, I was hoping General Performance Improvements might mean a fix for the audio CD bug where the beginning of a track is clipped off when skipping track-to-track. I assume ...
I saw it's up on the web site, any details as to what was improved/updated? The list is pretty vague, even the PURE ON/OFF display mode fixed didn't make sense since in my player it's q...
My player presently has the January 6, 2025 (V866) FW installed. I checked on June 8, 2025 if any new FW was available via the setting: Settings - > Options -> Update -> Network T...
