SACD Incorrect Title Readings

I'm using an Oppo 103, and it's the first player I've owned that will do SACD. I've started a small collection (have 10 or so) of the discs. I've noticed on more than one disc (3 actually, so far) that the title reads incorrectly on screen. The songs all read correctly, it seems to only be the title:

Mark Knopfler's Shangri-La shows as Shangri-Laler
Steely Dan's Gaucho shows as Gaucho Dan
Doobie Brother's Toulouse Street shows as Toulouse Streethers
The Who's Tommy has no title at all

I have 3 Elton John SACDs that all read correctly, Brothers In Arms from Dire Straits, We Can't Dance from Genesis and a Black Sabbath SHM-SACD that also read fine.

I'm thinking the Oppo is only reading the info presented to it, so is this just a product of the occasional SACD? I don't have another player to try the discs on and I was wondering if anyone else has had the same experience with some of their SACDs.

    I have the older 83 player.

    I tried the Steely Dan Gaucho SACD and I get:
    Disc Artist: Steely Dan
    Disc Title: Gaucho
    Track Title: Babylon Sisters

    I don't have Toulouse St, but I do have What Were Once Vices and I get:
    Disc Artist: The Doobie Brothers
    Disc Title: What Were Once Vices Are Now Habits
    Track Title: Song to See You Through

    H9: If you don't trust what you are hearing, then maybe you need to be less invested in a hobby which all the pleasure comes from listening to music.
