I am not a professional reviewer nor an expert on DVDs or Blu-Ray. I have a decent audio-visual system and needed a new DVD player. The prices and capabilities of the DVD/Blu-Ray players on the market that I looked at varied between the GBP30 Supermarket special and things costing into the low thousands. I read a lot of reviews and a lot of blogs and ended up choosing this Oppo.
It plays DVDs very well indeed; DVDs that I already own look better than I have ever seen. I have no experience of any other Blu-Ray player and so have no comparison point but Barenboim playing Chopin in his 2010 Warsaw Recital is amazing.
The Oppo has network capability, both by cable and wireless. Beyond connecting itself to my router and playing back music from my laptop I am hoping that one day it will offer some of the TV on demand out there, such as BBC iPlayer, but I have no idea if that will happen: my Oppo seems to only offer American on-line film services which are unavailable in the UK.
If you buy it check that it has the correct UK 3 pin power lead, I had to ask the supplier to send it separately, which he did the next day and meanwhile I just used a two pin to three pin adapter.
The player feels very substantial and well made, the remote is backlit and clear, it works flawlessly. In terms of its network capabilities I suspect that software upgrades are necessary to adapt it to UK internet services, but since its connected to the internet I cannot foresee problems downloading these.
I am very happy with this player and would recommend it to others.

Great Machine - If You Know The Workaround/Quirks
29 April 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase
The Oppo BDP-93 is an excellent Bluray and DVD player, there's no doubt about that. This modified version doesn't break any of that, and I would invite you to read the reviews on the unmodified player for all that information.
There are some quirks about that the modifications introduce to the machine, though. Until you figure them out, they can be greatly annoying to the point of thinking it's completely broken and/or doesn't work for some things any more. A couple of the other reviews which mention problems playing certain media seem to be the results of these oddities rather than actual problems with the player. I've thrown just about every type of CD, DVD (several regions), DVDAudio, Bluray (both regions), Bluray 3D (both regions), etc., into it and everything has played without a hitch.
Switching Bluray regions between A and B is a matter of turning the machine off, pressing a button (or buttons, see below) on the remote, and turning it back on. That's documented with the machine (and I've never found a player that automatically senses Bluray regions - it does automatically sense DVD regions and you don't have to mess with that). What they don't tell you is that switching between the two regions changes some settings, and that's the reason I'm giving this a medium rating.
For one example, if you switch on Region B, Netflix (and Blockbuster) disappear from the menu. The machine has to be set to Region A to play them (or see them). Likewise, if you do a reset or go into the easy setup wizard while on region B, it sets the TV output to PAL instead of NTSC, and your picture is garbled or missing until you go into setup and set it back.
Until you get everything set up to your satisfaction and understand how switching regions changes things, I kept it hooked up to a second TV with an RCA video cable, as I'd lose the HDMI signal and have a blank screen.
To clear up one other point, the BDP-93 has Wifi built in, you don't need any adapters or cables to take it on-line.
The players that are available from most of these vendors switches Bluray regions by pressing the power buttons, pressing 1 or 2, then turning the machine back on. However, at least one company does it differently and requires you to press something like Power, Dim, Dim, Dim, Dim, Audio. If the latter would be an issue for you - and it certainly was for me - then be sure to email the vendor before you make the purchase to confirm they use the simpler method.

No Quirks Here! A Simply AMAZING "Universal" Disc Player!
14 May 2011
As we all know, Oppo has emerged as one of the best Blu-ray disc manfacturers with one of its latest players, the BDP-93. More specifically, the region-free modified player allows this player to be truly "universal" and play Blu-rays and DVDs from around the globe.
I purchased the player that uses the Dimmer, Dimmer, Dimmer to change regions. Changing regions does require a power cycling, but changing DVD regions is automatic (when set to region 0). Further, the player remembers the region until the next time you change it. The instructions on how to change regions are clear and concise. There doesn't appear to be a Blu-ray player that has automatic Blu-ray region switching, so this the norm.
To be clear, NONE of the functionality is lost or changed (Netflix still appears on the Home Screen when set to region B; no quirks over here). Further, there is no loss in picture quality or sound quality; you simply gain the ability to play discs from all regions.
I did have some discs that did not initally play at first, but I believe this is common to the Blu-ray format. After checking for a firmware update and clearing the Persistent Storage (in the player's Settings Menu), all discs I tried to play worked perfectly fine!
I was glad to pay the premium for a region-free modified player - I surely can't do this myself!
I highly recommend this player to anyone, even if they don't need the region-free modification! (Who knows, your job might relocate you to the Fijian Islands or the Yucatan Peninsula!)

great player! (upon updating firmware only!)
26 Jun 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase
updated review upon reply from seller to my reminder e-mail (both sent through Amazon > contact reseller, seller claims first response might have gotten lost in -internetprovider's- spambox):
PLUS!!!
- player comes greatly wrapped/packed!
- great to exceptional sound!
- 2nd HDMI real advantage to soundquality + sound sync
- super easy installation, easy setup, great quality of contents, all cabling etc included!
PLUS/MINUS:
- upon receipt player SERIOUS video playback hickups (screen going black every couple of seconds), virtually impossible to watch movie (bluray+dvd)
- HOWEVER following clear instructions from seller on how to update firmware relieved to see why this player gets so much positive feedback: really excellent picture quality, but occasional black screens not entirely gone (at average once per 8 minutes, screen goes black during single second whilst playback not interrupted though). Some more tests (& firmware updates) to go to see wether this has to do with my Denon amp being linked with the OPPO via HDMI (upon firmware update, 1st time screen went black was upon powering up amp)?
