DVD-Audio Bass Mgmt on Oppo Can anyone who has used this product tell me whether the HDMI output provides any bass management when playing DVD-Audio disks? On my old player, I had to use 6 analog outputs to get true bass response. I am hoping that HDMI solves this issue, but haven't seen any evidence either way.

Will I be able to connect my cable box (Comcast) DVR directly through the BP-93 to my 40" Sony so I can use external speakers at all times? Speakers are older Bose Acoutimass system.

I'm not sure if I understand your question. The BDP-93 has only outputs, not inputs so you can't connect audio or video into it. Unless your thinking about connecting to the SATA input?

The user manual states that the bass management settings only effect the analog audio outputs. When connected via HDMI, you'll need to use the bass management settings in your receiver. See page 69 of the user manual for more details:http://www.oppodigital.com/blu-ray-bdp-93/blu-ray-BDP-93-Support.aspx

Yes, The optical output to my Receiver works great! I had the same worries before I hooked it up. The HDMI cable went to my HDMI TV and the optical cable I had went to the receiver for my room soundaround speaker system. The TV speakers work also if you don't want to play the receiver, a earlier mention in another post said, he could not get his TV to play sound out the speakers.... NOT true the sound still travels thru the HDMI cable to the HD TV even with the Optical cable plugged in and ran to the receiver. The sound does not designate one or the other and comes out both. I just keep the volume on my HD TV to 0. Yes, The optical output to my Receiver works great! I had the same worries before I hooked it up.

Shortly after setting up a new DV-980H I experienced similar flash "bands" of white noise. The first DVD I played appeared fine (it may have been played at 480p). The second DVD had the issue being played at 1080p. At first I thought it was a scratch on the DVD but the problem has occurred with other DVDs, including new DVDs. The white bands flash predominately on the bottom third of the screen and occasionally on the entire screen. The Oppo DV-980H is set to upconvert to 1080i for display on a Samsung LNT4665FX connected through HDMI with the Oppo supplied cable. The only other problem I have had so far is some jerking of the video while playing some portions of one DVD. This appears more attributable to the DVD but I expected the Oppo to do a better job of buffering and oversampling to prevent this from being seen. ** I raised the issue of the flashes of white in an e-mail to Oppo over the President's Day weekend. Their Support group contacted me later that day! They belive the issue is due to a marginal HDMI cable. Rerouting the cable appears to have helped.

Raul, I purchased mine 2 years ago. I can play anything in this Blue Ray and it will read it and work. Copies of movies, copies of music, it is exelent for all discs. It has played damaged dvds that most other dvds rejected because of scratches. This players quality is equal too or better than higher priced blue rays/dvds on the markert, my opinion. Nothing beats OPPO but higher priced OPPO's with more functions. Hope this helps!

If you want your 606 to show DVD: Dolby TrueHD or DTS HD-Mstr on its front panel, you need to adjust inside Sony s350 BD audio settings to "direct" not multil pcm. In your 606 preset listening mode menu, set the Dolby TrueHD to "dolby TrueHD, and DTS mstr to "DTS mstr" accordingly (this 606 menu has 2 pages, flip up and down till you locate that TrueHD or DTS HDmstr). What ever blu-ray disc you put in the onkyo will display what is picking up, TrueHD or DTS HD mstr...both format are the king of hometheater sounds, you will be hooked, excellent sounds. (Or if you want your 606 to show multi channel pcm, you can have your s350 BD audio settings to pcm not direct and it will decode inside that S350 instead of having 606 decoding, either way they sound amazing, but I would have the 606 do the work, also one TrueHD or Mstr logo is on, try Dolby prologicIIx or DTS neo 6 mode, they put all 8 speakers to rumble like no others!) Have you watched Traitor (truehd), Rambo 2008 (dtsHDmstr), or Sarah Connor Chronicles(DD blu-ray)? Those movies will truly show how great the S350 and 606 are...addictive. :-) PS: you can check my profile to see pic of what 606 screen looks like if the TrueHD is being decoded.

My SD DVDs did not look good either. The upconversion to 1080p cause the picture to "jitter" slightly, but noticeably. I went to "video output settings, selected hdmi (which are the cables I am using), manually set the output to 1080i....and the problem completely went away. My SD DVDs now look as well as they did on my old players.

Thanks a lot for the reply. Sounds like this player does everything I want. Now, if Amazon would get them in stock...

What about SD-DVD up-conversion? I have a Denon DVD-3910 and a PS3. The PS3 upscales DVDs better than the 3910; in some cases, a lot better. Is the Oppo better than the PS3 in this regard?

the source should be 7.1 i guess. else we can play a simulation of 7ch stereo. pl check if your DVD/BD is written as 7.1 ch? If its 7.1 ch recording and you are not getting 7.1 then check Speaker distribution. if everything is fixed per its position. Can use odyssey auto adjuster. finally, do you use anyother system which takes care of distribution of spound to speakers? ( like bose acoustimass?) check that too if it i s7.1 too. thanks

In all, I have (1) Oppo SE/83, (2) Sony BDP-CX7000ES (400 Disc Blu Ray/DVD Player), (1) DirecTV HDR-24, (1) Apple TV plugged into it. I then have the DVDO Unit it's self, plugged into both my TV (For Picture / Video) and a Denon AVR4806 (For Sound / Surround Sound). Because I rarely use my Sony - except to play RockSmith or an occasional Game, I have the PS4 plugged directly into the TV and the Denon. The PS4 does an awesome job, and I mean AWESOME JOB !! Of rendering a great TV Picture all by it's self. And the sound..... WOW !!

James, do you have an HDMI connection on your cable box and or other peripherals (DVD, bluray etc)? Optical is a good solution for component or analog video connections with digital audio (surround sound) decoders. If you have HDMI then your best possible video and audio solution is to go directly from your cable box and DVD/bluray with HDMI cables which would carry 1080p (high definition) video as well as 7.1 surround sound on a single cable. If this option is out of the question then you could go the lesser quality route of using optical connection into 2 inputs on the rear of the v375. This unit would replace your current surround processor. Any further questions feel free to reply! James, do you have an HDMI connection on your cable box and or other peripherals (DVD, bluray etc)?

I've had mine for about 2.5 years and it is working flawlessly. This is, by far, the best Bluray/DVD player that I have ever owned - 2nd best would be my Oppo BDP-83. FYI, I have not loaded the latest firmware because I want to retain ISO file playback capability. These are exceptionally good players, I highly recommend them.-RW-

William: As far as Blu-ray picture quality is concerned, it's doubtful you'd see a difference between the Oppo and any other Blu-ray player that isn't a piece of junk. And yes, $500 it a lot of money to spend, so the Oppo will NEVER become a best-seller. And since you already own an Oppo upconverting player, there is no need to purchase this unit (unless you have a lot of SACDs and DVD-Audio discs). However, the Oppo loads a Blu-ray disc faster than almost any player out there, except for the PS3.A. Franco: While I don't own the PS3, I have read that the Oppo upconverting capability is second to none. You might check with the AVS forum, I'm sure there are detailed discussions of these two premier products.

Yup I HAD that problem as well when I was using RCA inputs but when I changed to Digital Optical, I found that the volume was way too loud and had to turn it down a lot just to fit viewing need. Well, the way I have my setup with the same HTIB(Home Theater in Box) is: PS3&gt;Reciever via Digital Optical for Audio PS3&gt;TV via Component(Plan to upgrade to HDMI once the cable comes) TV&gt;Reciever via RCA(Red and White plugs) For yours specifically Castellanos, I think we need a bit more info on the TV and the Toshiba, like what kind of Inputs and Outputs are on the back of both products or if not that way, give a link to see information on those items. Hopefully we can get this straighten out as with others in the same boat.

Thanks, I ordered the cables but now I'm not sure how to hook it up to my 6.1 Sony receiver. All the rear jack labels match but I have one conflict:The Sony DVD has 2 surround back but my receiver has one. I am currently using the receiver to mix the extra info to the rear (5.1) as I don't have any physical back speakers. If I set the DVD player to 5.1 & omit the cable, will I lose any info? I know it sounds confusing but I just want to make sure the player will send the info to the available speakers.
