This video show how to convert ISO (aka SACD ISO only) to DSF, DFF (DSD audio files) on Mac, Windows. Read more: https://samplerateconverter.com/iso-converte. I used SACD Extract. I put the executable in the same directory as the ISO file and used this exact command./sacdextract -2ch-tracks -output-dsdiff -input=disk.iso. That produces nicely named DFF files of each track (50-100MB each). 2) Convert DFF to WAV 32bit 352800hz. I used JRiver Media Center 19. The software cannot even play DFF. DSD is the Philips/Sony system used to create the SACD (Super Audio Compact Disk) format, while MQA is a very clever codec that compresses the relatively little energy in the higher frequency.
SACD ISO support in media players is not a popular feature, especially when it comes to Linux audio.

As of today the most popular solution is an MPD fork, a program not found by default in most of the Linux distributions (if you have an Archphile supported board however you can use the package I have created for that).
If you have this type of files and you can’t currently use them, the best solution is to convert them to separate dsf or dff files.
Below I wil show you one command line and one GUI option (that uses the same command line tool).
Command Line Procedure
In order to proceed you will need sacd-ripper.
I am an Archlinux user so all I had to do was to give the following command:
the man page of this tool is pretty straight-forward:
Based on the above, the command you will need is the following:
GUI Procedure
In order to get the GUI, you need to visit this link and download is2dsd. This program is in fact a java gui of sacd-ripper and nothing more.Make sure that you have java installed and run it. You will see something similar to the image below:
All you have to do is to load the iso. If you want to extract the stereo version of the SACD in dsf format (it’s the best option as it supports tags) and you want to create a .cue file, make sure your settings are identical to the image above. As a last step, press the Execute button, wait for the procedure to finish and thats all! Your dsf files are ready!
