Order placed. I guess I will be having a Blu Christmas!
Both of these are known issues and will be addressed in a future firmware.5.1 layer of SACD does not play DSD .
The first second or so is being clipped off the front of all tracks on both Fleetwood Mac "Rumours" and Eagles "Hotel California" (in 5.1 of course).
Both of these are known issues and will be addressed in a future firmware.
Limited NDA Lift Up to Beta 26-1108 Firmware.
Anyone have questions?:yikes

So far, Blockbuster & Netflix are the only streaming media partners with others soon to follow.Is the Vudu streaming on board? I'm interested in Vudu's 1080p HDX streaming option. I'm not impressed with the picture quality of Netfix over my children's Wii. The 480p signal varries from fair to poor. The analog stereo sound is pretty good and there are some movies like "The Keep" that aren't even on DVD but the overall experience is so-so.
The player has not been "Officially" released to the public. Although, OPPO has offered some customers a chance to get the player early (Pre-Release), this helps get the BDP-93 in many more homes to see if there are any more issues with different combinations of equipment. So far, there has been a few and OPPO is working on fixes. If this does not satisfy you, wait for the "Official" release of the player.Originally Posted by jsulzinger View Post
yes but why do they release stuff again with problems to start with, that have to be later re dressed.

This is all I can say.
Because of the Marvel chipset, Netflix looks surprisingly good.

What same problems are you referring too? This player uses a different Mediatek chipset (along with switching to Marvell from Anchor Bay) and a few kinks need to be ironed out for every combination of equipment. As of now, for this caliber of player, it's pretty stable now. Otherwise, they would have not released it to anybody. I don't know what the big deal is. If you don't like it......stop complaining and buy a Denon. After some time, I'm sure you'll be complaining about them and their CS, etc.I understand what you mean but my point is they had similar issues last time ...it's like they keep having the same problems every time there's a new model.... it's not like Fleetwood Mac "Rumours" and Eagles "Hotel California" are new discs with new authoring techniques..if it was something like "toy story 3" or "Avatar" it would sound a lot less depressing....
what's the bet that next years model will do the same thing in beta testing...the odds are shortening....and the faults however few there are, seem to be getting very predictable..
I see where there's a new player to compete with the Oppo while we wait:

and there will be one from marantz that will be available march next year
I'm hoping that perhaps some of the folks that already have the BDP-93 can answer this question. Does the -93 have as fast loading and response times as the -83?
And does anybody know what's going on with the release date? They mentioned in the Audioholics article that it would be out in time for the Christmas buying season. There's only a couple of weeks left!
My only experience with load speeds for Blu-ray players is the Pioneer BDP-320, as I mentioned above. Can anyone provide some quantification for how much faster the OPPO is than that? Or how the OPPO Blu-rays compare to the load speeds for good DVD players?
