BDP-S570 and SACD

Hi, I'm new on this forum, but long-time Sony fan and supporter. I recently bought a new Sony BDP-S570 BD player to go with my old Philips 32 '' LCD HDTV, the new Sony KDL-46HX800 3D TV and the STR-DA4600ES receiver. I have also several audio SACD discs I wanted to play with this configuration.
Here's the problem I have:
I currently have my receiver output HDMI connected to my HDMI TV Philips entry. I have my BDP-S570 connected to the Sony STR-DA4600ES HDMI4 entered. I put the BDP-S570 to output SACD PCM since this receiver that I discovered after I bought it does not support the SACD DSD decoding. Anyway, in PCM mode when I try to play any disc SACD, I see video playback on the TV screen, but there is no audio output. If I put the drive to play only tracks CD (as opposed to the SACD titles) of the disc, then it plays audio in stereo via the PCM mode very well.
I narrowed down it to her get to play SACD by disconnecting the HDMI TV to receiver connection. If I remove the connection HDMI to the TV, the BDP-S570 SACD multichannel audio stream to the receiver. If I turn on the TV the audio stream disappears again. If I connect the player to a compatible old receiver from Onkyo NR-905 HDMI 1. 3A, she plays SACD audio fine even with connected HDMI TV. So it seems to be a bug in signaling of handshake in my Sony (receiver and BD player) components.
Sony support, please have your engineers check this aspect of the game of the SACD through your own line of Sony STR-DA4600ES of receivers with an old connected HDMI TV. It simply doesn't get it!
Sorry for the long-winded post but no other way to describe the details of my configuration to explain it all. Is there a fix in the works for more reliable SACD playback on this player BD BDP-S570 3D? Oh, BTW, I installed the latest firmware update from 13/02/2011 or there abouts. Receiver was last updated available also new out of the box. Please tell me Sony is concerned and is looking to fix this incompatibility in the next version of the firmware! Thank you!

I just update my situation with this problem of reading SACD I posted. I see nobody else was interested, but I'll post my resolution and conclusions.

I got my BDP-S570 to play multi-channel SACD through my receiver STR-DA4600ES now by removing a HDMI switch which is connected between a video output HDMI to my receiver and my TV HDMI input jacks. It's the HDMI switch which was somehow not the right signals to the system causing the BD drive to not stream of SACD PCM signals to the receiver. As soon as I removed this switch HDMI from the signal path, it al started to work and read its SACD via the receiver.

Also, I just noticed that the BDP-S570 is streaming music network in multichannel format now on Pandora music! I never saw blue light multichannel light upward when streaming music on the internet before. I don't know if it is also a symptom of the switch HDMI sending bad communications signals to the player OR if there is a change in the last update of the firmware that I installed on my BDP-S570. It's streaming multi-channel music on Pandora as I type this post!

Update: I think the BD drive his downmix PCM multi-channel had put instead if 2-channel PCM. If this can explain why I see multichannel streams now too and has not seen him before. HDMI switch issue was also this masking of screening until previously I suspect. Now with HDMI switch out of the picture, it appears as a multi-channel as it supposed to.

Update2: Well I just tried to change the setting to "DownMix" multichannel stereo PCM BD drive. Then I turned off the BD drive and turned back on to ensure that it restores its settings. I pulled to the top of the current internet music and video broadcasts and guess what? The Sony receiver is always get a stream PCM multi-channel (surround sound)! So it isn't the "DownMix" setting, which is the only cause. Apparently after I loaded the last firmware for this player, it plays now all this internet stream (music and video sites shows) in Multchannel surround sound mode.

Update: too bad people, I found my answer. The cause of constantly multichannel PCM streaming of all my network connections was because I had the BDP-S570 DTS parameter defined on ' Neo: 6 Music ' instead of 'Off' in the settings menu. I set this to "off" and all the music from the internet is now back to regular 2-channel flows. for info. case solved.

  • BDP-S570 and airport extreme

    Hello! Just hooked up my new player and can't join my wi - fi network. I have an Apple Airport Extreme (1st edition, 802. 11 g). The blu - ray player sees the end network, good signal strength, but when I put my password it says "the number of characters is invalid. Please check your entry and try again. »

    I use the same password I use to access the network on my computers, iPod touch etc. He uses it's WEP security protocol. ISP is Comcast, have the modem to bike and airport base station. Computer laptop connection very well etc. The player actually claims security WEP "key"; is it not my wireless password? Any ideas? Thank you!

  • BDP-S570 not stream 5.1

    I am unable to stream digital Dolby 5.1 on NetFlix or Amazon.  I re - configure the audio settings and the audio still come as a Pro Logic.  DVD and BluRay discs work very well (DD or DTS) and Pandora plays music as PCM 44.1.

    NetFlix thinks I must throw my BDP-S570 and buy a new one.

    If this can be true?

    Apparently, the Dolby Digital 5.1 is not available when you play movies netflix on this unit. For amazon, you may have to contact them to see if they allow the DD 5.1 surround sound on the Blu - ray player.

  • Question: BDP-S570 or BX57 internet multi-channel flow?

    Hi all, I noticed recently that when I listen to the audio or video content on the network as my BDP-S570 diffuse now as a multichannel surround sound instead of the 2 stereo channels.
    I don't know if this is caused by the latest firmware I installed or changed content providers (or the Sony Server site) in a recent past a few days to send their audio in 5.1 multichannel, now. Or finally if my BDP-S570 went buggy and it's stuck in the PCM multi-channel streaming mode.
    It broadcasts my network all music and video internet connections in multichannel sound, even if I put the BDP-S570 "Downmix" mode setting of stereo 2 channels. I swear before I made this latest firmware update, I always had that 2-channel stereo audio from the internet network connections.
    So I need to know and ask if someone else becomes sound mode of 5.1 channels of their Internet stream?

    Update: too bad people, I found my answer. The cause of constantly multichannel PCM streaming of all my network connections was because I had the BDP-S570 DTS parameter defined on ' Neo: 6 Music ' instead of 'Off' in the settings menu. I set this to "off" and all the music from the internet is now back to regular 2-channel flows. for info. case solved.

  • BDP-S570 not out of HD audio formats

    I have audio output with my BDP-S570 problems. BluRay connected to the Denon AVR-1911, through cable high speed HDMI. Denon then connected to Bravia KDL-55HX800 through same cables. 3D video works fine but I'm not getting any outputs audio TrueHD or DTS HD and not even get regular Dolby incidentally. Output on just says Denon Multi Ch. I have a PS3 connected to the Denon even with the same cables and output HD audio very well. I realize that I can just use the PS3 for the same use but still need to understand this problem. I have read a lot into that and have fooled with several settings, but nothing seems to work. Am I missing something simple? Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Figured it out. Just in case anyone has the same problem, you have to set Off BD Audio Mix. (Mix = is the default.) When the mixture is turned on, the player decodes and output multichannel PCM. Now I get the DTS HD and the sound is incredible.

  • Blu - ray and SACD

    From this date (March 29, 2016), I see through research within this community and my own attempts, that the great Apple Drive efforts will not play even Blu - ray video/audio and SACD discs.  My Super ejected disk to format when I try to play them, but no message doesn't pop-up telling me what to do, especially if the pilots were available to read these types of discs.  The reason given in the most recent surveys here was that Apple has not allowed the technology to play one of these formats.  Is this still the case, or drivers have become available in recent years to play on the Super player I know?

    Thanks, Wade

    Apple themselves do not always provide a solution to play Blu - Ray discs, they still include DVD player to play DVDs. There are some third-party programs but that will do it even if they are not 100% official Blu - Ray solutions. See the following topics.

    http://www.macblurayplayer.com/

    http://www.DVDFab.CN/Mac-Blu-ray-player.htm

    http://www.leawo.org/Blu-ray-player-Mac/

    Note: Because that these solutions are "unofficial" in general, they have not the ability to display full and use the motion of the Blu - Ray disc menu and instead of this will simply play the main disk movie, second due the fact that Apple has not taken the trouble to add underlying OS x capabilities these programs are also not able to play the audio tracks of more high quality of discs Blu - Ray and either will play instead a track of lower quality or reduce a track of superior quality. (It still will be at least as good as a DVD disc audio.)

  • BDP-s570 used to connect-

  • BDP-S570 has problems with Amazon Instant Video

    Hi, I have a Blu - Ray of S570 player.  I have cable internet to ~ 30 MB/s download speed and it is the only device on the network.  For the last month, I had problems with streaming movies.  I rented 2 movies from Amazon Instant Video and would freeze and require buffering several times to the places where UN watchable videos.  Another time I tried to watch a video of "TMZ" and he would not play and kept out me.

    I am able to watch a video on my computer without any problem and one I run a speed test on my network when the buffering occurs and it says 30 MB/Sec.

    Any suggestions?

    Just FYI - cat'd with Amazon.  They said to de-register with Amazon and re - register again...  She was very confident, that might solve my problem so she must know something... but I do not know for sure until I have try again tonight...

  • BDP-S570 - does not connect to internet via wifi

    I just bought this today and it does not connect to the internet via wi - fi. I'm entering properly (my iphone, ipad and computers connect very well). I called tech support and they had no idea what either. I then connected with an ethernet cable, updated to the latest firmware and tried again with no luck. Does anyone have any suggestions? It shows that the wireless is OK, but Internet Access - failed. When I return to the guests and have it analyzed the available networks, it shows that I am connected... something is weird. I'm back if I can't make it work in the next day or so.

    Network problems can certainly be difficult to diagnose.
    Here are some useful steps to check where your problem is.

    Check the IP address: is it 192.168.x.xx? or 169.xxx.x.xx
    If you have an address 169 it is a fake connect.

    What kind of network do you have? It's a Modem/Router combo? This is a modem connected to a router and then your Blu - ray player.

    the router/Modem combos are more complicated, and you need to consult your provider of Internet services (ISP) to connect to help. (maybe a MAC filtering problem?)

    If you have a problem with your Modem/Router try get a router and connect to the modem, you can have the best success with a stand-alone router you will have with a handset as they are less complicated to use.
    If you already use a stand alone, try to temporarily disable your security and test it without warranty.

    is the firmware updated on your router (not the S70 but the router) the latest firmware is sometimes useful.

    Best regards

  • Pandora on BDP-S570 problems

    I have problems getting the BR drive hooked up with Pandora. I am already registered for Pandora. I have this drive BR set up with Netflix without any problem. When I click on the Pandora icon, it keeps telling me to go to Sony to record the device, but when I do, it says that the device is already registered on both the TV under the home menu/enable advanced features as well as on the Sony site. Is there something that I am missing the link http:/internet.sony.tv/pandora to connect my Pandora account with the dvd drive?

    Any help would be great. Thank you in advance.

    Thank you for your message.
    Try to reset the Blu - ray player to factory default settings. Re-configure and register the device. If still not able to connect Pandora to the player, please call our Technical Support team for assistance: http://esupport.sony.com/US/perl/contac... dl = BDPS580

  • BDP-S570 is a hum when outside noise

    You wonder why this happens - any ideas? Of course I do not notice it when he plays, but when it is off, I certainly hear a sound of buzzing or humming coming from him.

    Rather than fix it, it would be cheaper to buy a new device!

  • Netflix captioning

    I have a BDP-S570 and love it. As well as DVDs, I use it a lot to watch Netflix. One thing the Netflix app does not I wish it did, it was the opportunity to activate closed captioning / subtitles. When watching the same content from Netflix on my Kindle Fire I can.

    I appreciate what may be a new feature of Netflix, but am curious if it is possible for my BDP-S570 to receive the same support. It is available in an update of the firmware?

    FYI, this is fixed with the S390 and S590 2012 players. Management of customer of Netflix closed captions/subtitles.
