Because all this stuff always has to be convoluted and confusing, there are two different types of cue sheets.
One type is functionally just a playlist: It lists multiple files and controls what order they're played in. If you're not getting gapless playback, I assume that you have each track in an individual DSF and the cue sheet is just making them play in order.
The other type of cue sheet is used to identify track points within a single large file. In my experience, those work great on my Oppo 103 and 203.
ISO2DSD will create either type, but it's not always obvious how to go about it. And, though I haven't done it in a while and might be crazy, I think the GUI will only create a whole-disc DFF + cue sheet, not a DSF. But you can get DSF + cue sheet at the command line if you're comfortable with that:
Code:
# Multichannel DSF with cue sheet and concatenated tracks
"C:\SACD\sacd_extract.exe" --mch-tracks --output-dsf --concatenate -t 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,10 --convert-dst --export-cue --input="N:\AudioWorkspace\When The Levee Breaks\When The Levee Breaks\When The Levee Breaks.iso"
The whole-album/single file cue sheet I'm talking about looks like this:
Code:

You can see there's only one FILE reference and the following track breaks all refer to the timepoints within a single file.
I always have my cue sheet in the same directory as the audio file.
