New high resolution SACD releases, players and technology.

Actually, this is "sort of" not true.

Using Philips SuperAuthor, I've been able to use an Authoring DVD-R drive to burn the resulting *.DAT file in UDF to a disc that seems to play on about 40% of the players.

Now, I don't know if this is a fault where some players (I don't want to mention which explicitly) don't validate the pit signal processing (I'm not even sure if this is used on most pressings?) or what...

Nonetheless, I've got a few samples if anyone does want to play around with the discs. (Test material only on the discs.)

Granted, most will reject the disc. So I'm not sure if this is simply a firmware 'fault' or perhaps the order of operations that goes into identifying a SACD on some players.
