Meaning if you send it to the BS3/BV7-40 as a bitstream you will not hear music.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>This also means that the build-in BR player of the BV7-40 only plays the cd part of a hybrid SACD and NOT the hi-res format of the sacd (as can&#39;t most of the BR-players!)</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/228867.aspxTue, 29 Sep 2009 03:45:03 GMT41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:228867Sigmund0https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/228867.aspxhttps://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=13&PostID=228867<p>Does the Blu-ray player on Beovision 7-40 understand the SACD format?</p> <p>The B&amp;O docs just say: &quot;Sound wise the Blu-ray player in BeoVision 7-40 supports the following formats: Dolby Digital 5.1, Dolby Digital + 7.1, Dolby Digital True HD 7.1, DTS 5.1,&nbsp;LPCM 7.1.
