 BDs with cartridge  DVD-RAMs  HD-DVDs  Data portion of CD-Extras  DVDs / Blu-Rays with a region code not matching the

player’s region code

 Some Dual-Discs: A Dual-Disc is a two-sided disc with

DVD-video on one side and digital audio on the other side. The digital audio side does not meet the technical specifications of the Red Book CD format so playback is not guaranteed.

 Audio discs with copy-protection may not be playable.

 To keep the disc clean from scratches or fingerprints,

handle the disc by its edge. Do not touch the recorded surface.

 Blu-ray Discs record data in very high density and the

recorded layer is very close to the disc surface. For this reason, Blu-ray Discs are more sensitive to dust and fingerprints than DVD. Should you encounter playback problems and see dirty spots on the disc surface, clean the disc with a cleaning cloth. Wipe the disc from the center out along the radial direction. Do not wipe the disc in a circular motion.

 Do not use record cleaning sprays or solvents such as

benzene, thinner and anti-static spray.

 Do not attach labels or stickers to discs as this may

cause the disc to warp or become too thick, resulting in playback issues and a potentially stuck disc.

 Avoid exposing the discs to direct sunlight or heat

sources.

 Do not use the following discs:

o Discs with exposed adhesive from removed stickers

or labels. The disc may get stuck inside the player.

o Warped or cracked discs. o Irregularly shaped discs, such as heart or business

card shapes.

Discs that cannot be played

Notes about BD-ROM compatibility

Since the Blu-ray Disc specifications are new and evolving, some discs may not play properly depending on the disc type, version and encoding. It is possible that a Blu-ray Disc manufactured after the player uses new features of the Blu-ray Disc specifications. To ensure the best possible viewing experience, the player may need a firmware or software update from time to time. Please visit

OPPO Digital’s web site www.oppodigital.com to check if updates are available.

Battery Installation

Using the Remote Control

When using the remote control, the front window of the remote control should be pointed to the infrared sensor on the front panel within an angle of ±30° and a range of about 26 ft.

I N T R O D U C T I O N

Changing the Remote Code

The remote control contains three OPPO remote codes. The default is Code 1. If you have other OPPO products placed close to the UDP-203, they may inadvertently respond to the UDP-203 remote control. To prevent this, you can select a different remote code.

To select a new remote code, open the battery compartment cover of the remote control, and then use a ball point pen to flip the switch to one of the positions marked as 1, 2, or 3. Close the battery compartment cover. Make sure that the UDP-203 player is turned on and that the disc tray is ejected. Aim the remote control at the player. Press and hold the ENTER button for 5 seconds. The player will start using the new remote code.

Motion Sensitive Backlight

The remote control features a motion sensor to activate the backlight for five seconds when you pick up the remote or press a button on the remote.

To disable or enable the backlight, press the DIMMER and 0 buttons at the same time on your remote.

I N T R O D U C T I O N

CAUTION

 Never drop the remote control or expose it to moisture.  Never expose the infrared remote sensor on the front panel to direct sunlight or other

strong light sources.

 Remote may not operate consistently when batteries become low. Replace them if

operation deteriorates.

 If the remote control will not be used for a long time, please remove the batteries.  Use the batteries correctly to avoid possible leakage and corrosion. Do not leave the

batteries exposed to direct sunlight or in a high temperature environment for a long period of time. Do not heat or expose to flame. Do not mix old and new batteries. Do not use batteries of different types at the same time. Do not attempt to recharge the batteries.

 If battery leakage occurs, do not touch the liquid with bare hands. Wipe out any liquid

inside the battery compartment, and insert new batteries.

Common Connection Methods

Connecting to an A/V Receiver via HDMI

 If you have an HDMI-capable receiver that supports 4K HDR video pass-through, you can simply

run an HDMI cable from the player’s HDMI OUT (Main) output into your receiver and enable HDMI video pass-through on the receiver (see your receiver’s owner’s manual for more information). The receiver usually has an HDMI output that you can connect to your TV to pass the video signal.

 Some receivers contain a mixture of HDMI 2.0 and HDMI 1.4 ports. In order to view 4K UHD

content, ensure that you are connecting the UDP-203’s HDMI OUT (Main) output into an HDMI

2.0 and HDCP 2.2 compliant input of the 4K UHD TV.

NOTE

 HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is a single cable that can transport both audio and

video from your player to your display. Be aware, however, that HDMI is an evolving standard, and there may be compatibility issues. A receiver that supports audio input over HDMI is required. Some receivers offer HDMI ports solely for video switching. If your receiver does not have audio input capability, please read the following sections regarding other connection methods.

 For Blu-ray Discs, a receiver that supports HDMI 1.4 or later with decoding capability for Dolby

TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio is preferred.

 For 4K UHD Blu-ray discs, a receiver that supports HDMI 2.0 and HDCP 2.2 or later is required. It

is recommended to use an 18 Gbps Premium High-Speed HDMI Cable to watch 4K UHD movies.

 The UDP-203 supports bitstreaming the latest object-based surround audio formats, such as Dolby

Atmos and DTS:X to a receiver that can decode these formats.

 Please check the specifications of your receiver to ensure that it meets these requirements.

C O M M O N C O N N E C T I O N M E T H O D S

Connecting to a TV via HDMI

 Use an HDMI cable to connect the player’s HDMI OUT (Main) output directly into your TV. This

connection method delivers both audio and video in a pure digital format via a single cable.

 In order to play 4K UHD content, you must connect the UDP-203’s HDMI OUT (Main) output into

an HDMI 2.0 and HDCP 2.2 compliant input of the 4K UHD TV.

NOTE

 This connection method will output sound via the TV’s speakers. For optimal sound quality, it is

recommended that audio be transferred from the UDP-203 to an A/V receiver with connected speakers.

 You will need a UHD TV that supports HDMI 2.0 and HDCP 2.2 in order to watch UHD Blu-Ray

and other UHD content in 4K resolution.

 You will need an HDR-capable TV to watch HDR content.  You will need an 18 Gbps High-Speed HDMI Cable to watch UHD movies at 4K@60.  Do not connect the HDMI OUT (Audio Only) output to your TV.

C O M M O N C O N N E C T I O N M E T H O D S

Connecting to a TV and A/V Receiver via Dual HDMI

 The UDP-203’s Dual HDMI connection mode ensures that you can enjoy the highest possible

video quality and resolution, in addition to high bit rate audio content. Use an HDMI cable to connect the HDMI OUT (Main) output to your TV, and another HDMI cable to connect the HDMI OUT (Audio Only) output to your receiver.

 This configuration is recommended when you have a 3D or UHD compatible display, but your

receiver is not 3D or UHD compatible. This configuration will allow you to send the video signal (3D or UHD in this case) directly to the TV and send the audio signal to the receiver.

NOTE

 Please refer to the notes on HDMI connections available on page 12.  If your receiver does not have HDMI audio input capability, please try the alternate

connection methods discussed on pages 15 and 16.

C O M M O N C O N N E C T I O N M E T H O D S

Connecting to an A/V Receiver or Amplifier via Analog Outputs

 The UDP-203 is equipped with a 7.1ch analog audio output that can be connected to the 7.1ch

analog input section of an A/V receiver or amplifier for audio output. This method is required if the A/V receiver does not have HDMI inputs. It is also a preferred connection method for taking advantage of the UDP-203’s advanced digital-to-analog converter (DAC).

 Please use up to 8 RCA-style audio interconnect cables to connect the FL (Front Left), FR (Front

Right), SL (Surround Left), SR (Surround Right), C (Center), SW (Subwoofer), SBL (Surround Back Left) and SBR (Surround Back Right) analog output terminals of the UDP-203 to the corresponding multi-channel analog audio input jacks of your A/V receiver or amplifier.

 If the A/V receiver or amplifier only has 5.1ch audio inputs, you can omit the SBL (Surround Back

Left) and SBR (Surround Back Right) outputs. In the Setup Menu, set the Down Mix Mode to 5.1ch in the Speaker Configuration section (refer to Down Mix Mode on page 64).

 If your audio system offers only stereo audio inputs, or if you would like to connect a dedicated stereo

audio system in addition to the surround audio system which is already connected to the HDMI or S/PDIF outputs, you can connect the dedicated stereo audio system to the FL (Front Left) and FR (Front Right) outputs of the player. In the Setup Menu, set the Down Mix Mode to Stereo in the Speaker Configuration section (refer to Down Mix Mode on page 64).

C O M M O N C O N N E C T I O N M E T H O D S

Connecting to an A/V Receiver or Amplifier via S/PDIF (Coaxial / Optical)

 Please use either a 75-Ohm coaxial digital audio cable with RCA-style connectors or an S/PDIF

optical digital audio cable to connect one of the digital audio outputs to the corresponding input terminal on your A/V receiver. For detailed setup of coaxial/optical signals, refer to page 57.

NOTE

 Due to bandwidth limitations, high resolution audio formats such as Dolby Digital Plus,

Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD High Resolution and DTS-HD Master Audio cannot be sent through the coaxial or optical digital audio output. A reduced resolution version of the same audio track will be output instead. To listen to high resolution audio formats in their best quality, please use the HDMI connection if you have a receiver that handles HDMI audio (see page

12) or use the multi-channel analog outputs if you do not (see page 15).

 Due to copyright restrictions, SACD audio cannot be sent through the coaxial or optical

digital audio output. To listen to SACDs, please use the HDMI or analog audio connections.

Connecting to the Internet

The UDP-203 can play audio, video and photos via your home network. This feature supports DLNA, SMB/CIFS and NFS protocols.

The UDP-203 also supports the BD-Live feature offered on some Blu-ray Disc titles. BD-Live offers extra downloadable content and additional online interactive programs. Content available on BD-Live varies by disc and studio, and may include additional subtitles, commentaries, movie trailers, games, and online chat.

Connecting the player to the Internet will also allow the player to obtain firmware updates. (See page 68 for more information regarding firmware updates.)

In order to utilize the BD-Live feature or to update the firmware via the Internet, the player needs to be connected to a broadband Internet connection. It is not necessary to connect to the Internet if you do not intend to use BD-Live or online firmware update features.

The UDP-203 provides two network connection methods: through Ethernet cable or through the built-in wireless module. For the fastest and most stable network connection, we recommend using an Ethernet cable whenever possible.

Internet Connection via Ethernet Cable

 Plug one end of a network cable (Category 5/5E straight Ethernet cable) into the LAN port on the

back of the UDP-203.

 Plug the other end of the network cable into a LAN port on the broadband router or modem.  After physically connecting the player to a broadband Internet connection, some network

configuration may be required. Refer to the Network Setup section on page 72 for details.

 Refer to the operating instructions supplied with the broadband router or modem, or contact the

Internet service provider for questions related to setting up the router or modem.

NOTE

 Only connect the LAN port of the player to an Ethernet port that supports 1000BASE-T or

100BASE-TX or 10BASE-T. Connecting to any other ports or jacks, such as a phone jack, can damage the player.

C O M M O N C O N N E C T I O N M E T H O D S

Internet Connection via Wi-Fi

 A built-in wireless module is installed in the UDP-203. The wireless module is compatible with

802.11A, B, G, N (2.4GHz and 5GHz) and 802.11 AC (5GHz) wireless networks.

 Make sure that a broadband Internet connection is available and the Wi-Fi function on your wireless

router or access point has been turned on.

The UDP-203 is equipped with three USB ports: two USB 3.0 ports in the back and one USB 2.0 port in the front. You may use any of the available USB ports to plug in a USB drive.

The USB ports are rated to provide a maximum of 5V, 1000mA power to the USB drive. It is sufficient for USB thumb drives and flash memory card readers, but may not be sufficient for USB hard disks. It is recommended to check with your drive manufacturer for power requirements, or use an external power supply.

MEDIA FILE PLAYBACK

In addition to playing standard disc-based formats such as Blu-ray, DVD, CD and SACD, the UDP-203 can play digital media files. You can enjoy digital music, movies and photos stored on a data disc (recordable CD, DVD or Blu-ray), an external USB drive, or via network storage. Due to the variation of media, encoding software and techniques used, compatibility cannot be guaranteed for all user-created or downloaded content. Support for such content is on a best effort basis.

Playback from a USB Flash Drive

NOTE

 This unit supports “USB Mass Storage Class Bulk-Only Transport” devices only. Most USB

thumbs drives, portable hard disk drives and card readers conform to this device class. Other USB devices such as MP3 players, digital cameras, and mobile phones may not be compatible.

 Supported USB drives can be formatted with the FAT (File Allocation Table), FAT32, exFAT or

NTFS (New Technology File System) file systems.

 In some cases, an incompatible USB device may cause the player to stop responding. If this

occurs, simply turn off the power, remove the USB device, and turn the player back on.

 In order to minimize the risk of data corruption, it is recommended that you only unplug the

USB device when playback is completely stopped.

M E D I A F I L E P L A Y B A C K

Playback from a Home Network

The UDP-203 can remotely play back music, photo, and video files stored on computers or NAS (Network Attached Storage) devices that are connected to the same home network. The computer or NAS need to run server software that supports media sharing protocols such as DLNA, SMB/CIFS or NFS. To play media files shared on your home network, press the HOME button on the remote to bring the Home Menu, select the Network icon and press the ENTER button to show the list of available servers.

The UDP-203 player can play media files on the home network in one of the following three ways:

 As a digital media player (DMP): the player can actively search, access and pull content from

local media servers which supports DLNA.

 As a digital media renderer (DMR): the player plays content received (“pushed”) from a digital

media controller (DMC). A DMC-capable media server is required. Refer to the server’s respective user instructions for correct configuration and operation.

 As a SMB/CIFS/NFS client: the player can directly access files shared through SMB/CIFS/NFS

servers over the network, as if accessing an external USB hard drive. Most computers, especially those installed with Windows, already support SMB clients. Please refer to respective OS instructions to set up the SMB/CIFS/NFS shared file/folder.

NOTE

 NAS is a networked appliance that provides file-based data storage services to other devices

on the network. Commercial products are available on the market.

 SMB (Server Message Block) or CIFS (Common Internet File System) is mostly known as

SETUP MENU OPTIONS

The Setup Menu of the UDP-203 presents many setup and configuration options. For most users, the default configuration will be sufficient and you will not require any changes to the settings. However, if you need to configure the player to perfectly match your home theater setup and viewing preferences, please refer to the following sections for details about each configuration option.

Using the Setup Menu System

Like many other sections listed in this guide, the player’s Setup Menu allows you to make adjustments to match your specific audio/video configuration. When performing menu adjustments, we will use the following terminology to indicate the location of the desired function:

Setup Menu Section> Menu Item >Selection Setup Menu Section is the uppermost Setup Menu level. Within the UDP-203, there are six Setup Menu

sections listed in the left column of the Setup Menu: Playback Setup, Video Output Setup, Audio Output Setup, Audio Processing, Device Setup, and Network Setup.

Menu Item is the parameter to be adjusted which appears in the center column of the Setup Menu. Once you enter a Setup Menu Section, the list of Menu Items and their current value are displayed in a box.

Selection is the actual numeric or descriptive element that represents the change being made to the selected

parameter. It is the item located to the right of its corresponding Menu Item. A Scroll Mark appears at the top or bottom of the menu when there are more Menu Items or Selections than

what can fit in a screen. You may use the UP and DOWN ARROW buttons to scroll the display in order to access additional items.

S E T U P M E N U O P T I O N S

2. Press the UP/DOWN ARROW buttons to select the section. Press the ENTER button or the RIGHT ARROW button to enter the selected section.

3. Press the UP/DOWN ARROW buttons to select the setup item to be changed, and press the ENTER or RIGHT ARROW button to change the setting. When the scroll icon is shown at the top or bottom of the Setup Menu, it indicates that there are more menu items that can be accessed by scrolling with the UP/DOWN ARROW buttons.

For example, in the Playback Setup section, you may use the UP/DOWN

ARROW buttons to select the Auto Resume setup item, and press the ENTER

button to change the Auto Resume setting.

The preceding diagram should give a good description of the various elements and their context. In this screen we could, for example, instruct you to set the Auto Resume parameter to Off in the Playback Setup section. To indicate where we were, you would see the following: Playback Setup>Auto Resume>Off.

NOTE

 It is possible that some setup items may be grayed-out and inaccessible. This may be caused

by several reasons: playback is ongoing; a disc is in the tray; or a prerequisite setup item excludes some options. Please stop playback and eject the disc before trying to change these setup items. If you still cannot access the setup item, please check for configuration conflicts. For example, if Network Setup > Internet Connection is set to Ethernet, the Wireless Setting menu item will be grayed-out. Setting Internet Connection to Wireless will enable the Wireless Setting menu.

The Setup Menu can be accessed by pressing the SETUP button on the remote control, or by selecting the

“Setup” icon from the Home Menu screen. The following steps are an example of setting Playback Setup>Auto Resume to Off.

1. Press the SETUP button on the remote control, and the TV screen displays the following:

S E T U P M E N U O P T I O N S

4. To select a value from the list of available settings, press the UP/DOWN ARROW buttons and then press the ENTER button to confirm.

For example, to select Off for Auto Resume, use the UP/DOWN ARROW buttons to highlight the Off selection and press the ENTER button.

5. To exit the Setup Menu at any time, press the SETUP button on the remote control or select Exit from the Setup Menu sections.

Settings are permanently saved when the player is turned off using either the front panel power button or the remote control. If the AC power is interrupted before the player enters standby, the settings will not be saved. To ensure that the settings are saved, please turn off the player and turn it back on after you make major changes to the Setup Menu options.

This feature is helpful for customers using a 2.35:1 “Constant Image Height” video projection system. Subtitles can be shifted to the active video area so they do not get cut off. You can also press and hold the SUBTITLE button for 3 seconds to activate this selection.

6. OSD Position: Allows you to set the display position for the on-screen display (OSD).

When the OSD Position is set to 0, the OSD is shown at the top and bottom of the video screen. When it is set at a value between 1 and 5, the OSD is shifted towards the center of the video screen.

Similar to the subtitle shift setting above, the OSD Position feature is helpful for customers using a 2.35:1 “Constant Image Height” video projection system.

7. OSD Mode: Allows you to select how long the on-screen display (OSD) information, such as playback operation icons (PAUSE, STOP, SKIP, etc.), stays on the TV screen.

 Normal (default) – OSD information stays on the TV screen until the user cancels it.  Minimal – OSD information stays on the TV screen for a few seconds and then

disappears. The front panel display still maintains the selected display information.

 Remaining – OSD information stays on the TV screen until the user cancels it. By default,

displays remaining time instead of elapsed time.

 Off – No OSD information shows on the TV screen unless the user presses the INFO

button. This mode is not recommended for daily use

S E T U P M E N U O P T I O N S

8. Angle Mark (On/Off) – Turns on/off the display of the angle icon when a DVD or Blu-ray Disc with multiple angles is played. Keeping the angle mark off avoids distraction from normal movie watching.

9. Screen Saver – Allows you to turn on/off the screen saver function. The screen saver is designed to minimize burn-in concerns for plasma and CRT display devices.

 On (default) – After about 3 minutes of inactivity, the player will show an animated OPPO

logo moving on a black background. This allows most areas of the screen time to rest and gives all areas an equal opportunity to refresh.

 Off – The screen saver will not be activated. Only use this option if your TV does not have

any burn-in issues.

 Energy Saver – Video output will be turned off after 3 minutes of inactivity. Many

projectors and LCD TVs will go into a standby or sleep mode and turn off their projection lamp or LCD backlight lamp, thus saving energy and prolonging the lamp life. When you

press any button on the OPPO remote control or the player’s front panel, the screen saver

will be canceled and video output will be restored. If your TV is already in standby or sleep mode, you may need to wake up the TV by pressing a button on its remote or control panel.

10. Parental Control: Sets parental control ratings in order to prevent minors from watching inappropriate content. This function depends on whether the disc has been properly rated and encoded.

 Press the ENTER button to bring up the rating selection menu.  Adjust the parental control settings by entering the current parental control password. If you

have not yet set a parental control password, default the password is “0000”.

 The Parental Control Menu contains the following sub-items:

 BD Ratings – Press the UP/DOWN ARROW buttons to select the rating allowed for

Blu-ray Discs. Off means no ratings control and all discs are allowed to play. Numbers 1 to 21 corresponds to the age limit. Discs encoded with an age limit that is equal to or less than the selected age will be allowed, and any rating above the selected age will be blocked.

 DVD Ratings – Press the UP/DOWN ARROW buttons to select the rating to allow for

DVDs. The available ratings are Kid, G, PG, PG-13, PGR, R, NC-17, Adult and Off. The selected rating and below will be allowed, and any rating above will be blocked. If Off is selected, all discs are allowed to play.

 Area Code – Some Blu-ray Discs may have different parental control ratings for

different geographical areas. At this time the player only supports parental control ratings used in the United States.

 Change Password – To change the parental control password, enter a 4-digit number

as the new password. Enter the new password again to confirm. If the two entries match, the new password replaces the old parental control password.

S E T U P M E N U O P T I O N S

Video Output Setup

The Video Output Setup section of the Setup Menu allows you to configure video output options.

1. Picture Adjustment: Adjusts picture control settings. The UDP-203 provides a wide array of

picture controls. Please refer to the Picture Adjustment section on page 53 for details about each control.

2. HDR: Allows you to choose the output mode for High-Dynamic Range content.  Auto (default) – Outputs HDR if supported by both the content and the display. The player

automatically checks for HDR content and whether the TV or projector is HDR compatible, and if both criteria are met, the player outputs HDR video from its HDMI (Main) output terminal. Otherwise, only SDR video is output.

 On – If the video content supports HDR, the player will always output video with HDR

enabled regardless of whether or not the TV or projector indicates that HDR is supported. This may result in image abnormalities if the connected display does not support HDR.

 Off – Always outputs video without HDR. HDR content will be converted to SDR.

3. Output Resolution: Allows you to choose the output resolution that best matches your

television’s native resolution.

 Auto (default) – Automatically set the optimal output resolution.  Custom – Set the output resolution according to the desired Custom Resolution setting.  Source Direct – Outputs at the original resolution of the source material.

NOTE

 DO NOT set the Output Resolution to Custom unless you know your TV’s native

resolution and the selected Custom Resolution is supported by your TV. For a detailed description on how to choose a proper output resolution, please refer to the Select the Best Output Resolution section on page 54 of this manual.

 There will be no video output or an “unsupported video signal” message may appear on

screen if an unsupported output resolution is selected. To get the video back, you need to press the RESOLUTION button on OPPO remote until “AUTO” is displayed on the front panel of the UDP-203. Then press the Enter button on the OPPO remote or wait

S E T U P M E N U O P T I O N S

for a few seconds to confirm the selection. The player will automatically set its output resolution to a format that is supported by the TV.

4. Custom Resolution: Allows you to select a custom output resolution. The Output Resolution

will be automatically changed to Custom if a new custom resolution is selected here. The following resolutions are available for the Custom Resolution setting:

 UHD Auto – Ultra HD (4K) output resolution with automatic frame rate. The frame rate will be

24Hz if the source content is natively 24Hz. 50/60Hz source content will be output as 4K 50/60Hz if the display device supports it, or as 4K 25/30Hz in the user specified color space.

 UHD 24Hz – Ultra HD (4K) output resolution with a 24Hz frame rate whenever possible. If

the source content is not suitable for 4K 24Hz output, the output resolution will be 1080p 50/60Hz.

 UHD 50Hz – Ultra HD (4K) output resolution with a 50Hz frame rate.  UHD 60Hz – Ultra HD (4K) output resolution with a 60Hz frame rate.  1080p Auto – 1080p output resolution with automatic frame rate. The frame rate will be

24Hz if the source content is natively 24Hz and the display device supports 1080p 24Hz. 50/60Hz source content will be output as 1080p 50/60Hz.

 1080p 24Hz – 1080p output resolution with 24Hz frame rate preferred. The frame rate will be

24Hz if the source content is natively 24Hz. 50/60Hz source content will still be output as 1080p 50/60Hz.

 1080p 50Hz, 1080p 60Hz, 1080i 50Hz, 1080i 60Hz, 720p 50Hz, 720p 60Hz, 576p, 576i,

480p, 480i – Video will be up-sca led or down-scaled to these specific output resolutions.

NOTE

 DO NOT change the Custom Resolution unless you know your TV’s native resolution.  There will be no video output or an “unsupported video signal” message may appear on

screen if an unsupported custom resolution is selected. To get the video back, you need to press the RESOLUTION button on OPPO remote until “AUTO” is displayed on the front panel of the UDP-203. Then press the Enter button on the OPPO remote or wait for a few seconds to confirm the selection. The player will automatically set its output resolution to a format that is supported by the TV.

5. Color Space: Allows you to select the color space for the HDMI video output.  Auto (default) – The player checks with the display device to automatically determine what

color space to use. If the display device supports YCbCr 4:4:4, then it will be used to avoid extra color space conversion.

 RGB Video Level – The HDMI output uses RGB color space and normal signal range

suitable for video displays.

 RGB PC Level – The HDMI output uses RGB color space and expands the signal range.

The expanded signal range is suitable for personal computer (PC) displays. Some TVs are designed to be used as a PC monitor, and expect signal in expanded RGB range when the DVI input is selected. For these displays if the video signal uses the normal RGB range, the black-white contrast will be reduced. You can set the player to use the RGB PC Level output and restore proper contrast.

S E T U P M E N U O P T I O N S

 YCbCr 4:4:4 – The HDMI output uses YCbCr 4:4:4 color space.  YCbCr 4:2:2 – The HDMI output uses YCbCr 4:2:2 color space. Generally this is the color

space that is close to the color space encoded on the discs. (All discs are encoded in YCbCr 4:2:0 color space, and the video decoder decodes it into YCbCr 4:2:2.)

 YCbCr 4:2:0 – The HDMI output uses YCbCr 4:2:0 color space. (All Blu-ray discs are

encoded in YCbCr 4:2:0 color space.)

6. Color Depth: Allows you to select the color depth mode for the HDMI video output. For

displays that support increased color depth, you should see smoother color transitions and better gradients.

 Auto (default) – The player automatically determines the color depth mode based on the

capabilities of the display device.

 12-bit – Always uses the 12-bit color depth mode.  10-bit – Always uses the 10-bit color depth mode.  8-bit – Always uses the 8-bit color depth mode.

NOTE

 For watching a UHD movie with HDR-10 color, you need to select Auto or 10-bit color

depth to enable HDR output.

 The 12-bit and 10- bit color depth mode may not be supported by all TVs. Using the 12-

bit or 10-bit color depth mode when connected to a TV that does not support it may result in no video.

7. TV Aspect Ratio: Sets the aspect ratio of the player’s output image.  16:9 Wide – 16:9 content will be displayed in its native aspect ratio, and 4:3 contents will be

stretched horizontally.

 16:9 Wide / Auto (default) – 16:9 content will be displayed in its native aspect ratio, and 4:3

content will be displayed with black borders on both sides in order to maintain the original 4:3 aspect ratio.

For a detailed description on how to choose a proper TV Aspect Ratio, please refer to the Determine the Display Aspect Ratio section on page 55 of this manual.

8. 3D Setting: Adjusts the playback settings for better 3D visual quality.  3D Output – Allows you to choose the video output mode for 3D content.

 Auto (default) – Outputs 3D if supported both by both the disc content and the display.

The player automatically checks for the existence of 3D content on the disc and the 3D compatibility of the TV or projector. If both criteria are met, the player sends 3D video from its HDMI output terminals; otherwise, only 2D video is sent out. You may need to wear 3D glasses that come with your TV in order to view 3D movies.

 Off – Always output 2D video format, even when 3D video exists on the disc. This

guarantees the video quality if your TV is not 3D compatible, or if some necessary components (such as the 3D glasses) are missing.

S E T U P M E N U O P T I O N S

 Forced – Always output 3D video format for 3D Blu-ray Discs. You may experience a

black screen (no video output) if your TV is not 3D compatible.

 2D->3D Depth – Adjusts the 3D depth perception when performing 2D-to-3D conversion

(also called “simulated 3D”). The default value is 8.

 3D TV Size – Allows you to enter the diagonal screen size of the 3D HDTV. Use the

number buttons on the remote to enter the actual diagonal size of the TV screen, and then press the ENTER button to confirm. The default value is 46 inches. This value does not directly affect video quality, but some 3D movies may use this value to decide how to place certain graphics.

9. DVD 24p Conversion: Allows you to enable 24Hz frame rate conversion for DVD. This option

is only available when Output Resolution is Auto, Output Resolution is Custom and Custom Resolution is UHD Auto/UHD 24Hz/1080p Auto/1080p 24Hz. Many DVDs that originate from theatrical movies are encoded with a technique called “3:2 telecine” in order to convert the 24 frames per second film to 60Hz video signal. The player can convert the 60Hz video signal back to 24 frames per second film and output as 24Hz. Smoother motion may be achieved by enabling this option, if both the TV and the DVD disc meet the conversion conditions. The available options are:

 On – Converts DVD to 24Hz frame rate when possible. Remember that motion errors may

be observed if the DVD is not suitable for such conversion.

 Off (default) – Does not convert DVD to 24Hz frame rate.

10. De-interlacing Mode: Allows you to select the appropriate algorithm that the player should use

to convert interlaced video on a DVD or Blu-ray Disc to progressive output. A proper deinterlacing mode will ensure the output video matches the original contents and is free of deinterlacing artifacts. The available options are:

 Auto (default) – Automatically selects the de-interlacing mode depending on the video type.

This is the recommended setting as it sets the player to optimally process a variety of signal types.

 Film – De-interlacing the video originally made in film mode. The mode may improve film

mode detection in some cases.

 Video – De-interlacing the video originally shot with a video camera. Use this setting only if

you are certain the disc is made from footage originally not shot with a film camera.

Picture Adjustment Menu

Picture Adjustment

Picture Adjustment is a special section of the Video Output Setup menu. It allows you to fine tune many picture control parameters in order to achieve optimal picture quality. To enter the Picture Adjustment menu, press the SETUP button on the remote control to enter the player’s Setup Menu and choose Video Output Setup>Picture Adjustment.

Since the player is equipped with only the HDMI OUT (Main) output port for video output, the Picture Adjustment menu will come up directly for HDMI output.

To change a picture adjustment parameter, use the UP/DOWN ARROW buttons to highlight the parameter, and use the LEFT/RIGHT ARROW buttons to change its value.

To aid in the adjustment of picture control parameters, the picture adjustment menu will be reduced to only show the parameter being adjusted once you press the LEFT/RIGHT ARROW buttons (except the Picture Mode, which you will directly see the mode name switches between Mode 1, 2 and 3, and all the other parameters are adjusted automatically to the stored value). The reduced menu will be positioned near the bottom of the screen.

You can continue adjusting the current parameter by pressing the LEFT/RIGHT ARROW buttons. To select another parameter, press the UP/DOWN ARROW buttons. Press the ENTER button to return to the main Picture Adjustment menu.

To exit the Picture Adjustment menu and return to the Setup Menu, either select Exit in the menu, or press the RETURN button.

1. Picture Mode: The UDP-203 allows you to save up to three customized modes. Press the LEFT/RIGHT ARROW buttons to switch the mode and all parameters will be automatically adjusted to their stored values. Changes to the current parameter values will be stored automatically when you exit the Picture Adjustment screen or switch to another Picture Mode.

2. Brightness: Allows you to adjust the brightness (black level) of the video output.

3. Contrast: Allows you to adjust the contrast (white level) of the video output.

NOTE

 Proper brightness and contrast settings are necessary for a quality video output. If you do

not have the correct black and white levels, your images can appear washed out or can lose detail in shadows when watching darker scenes. Televisions have brightness (black level) and contrast (white level) controls; however, it may require a combination of

S E T U P M E N U O P T I O N S

tweaking both the player and your television to get the optimal result. We recommend using a calibration disc such as the Spears & Munsil™ High Definition Benchmark Blu-ray Edition or Digital Video Essentials HD Basics as aids for adjusting. First adjust the television’s picture controls for the best possible picture. Once that is done, try changing the player’s settings to further refine the picture to the optimal result.

4. Hue: Allows you to adjust the hue (tint) of the video output.

5. Saturation: Allows you to adjust the saturation (color intensity level) of the video output.

6. Sharpness: Allows you to set the sharpness of video output. Sharpness is a video processing function that can control the image sharpness but at the same time may cause unwanted artifacts. The sharpness level can be set between 0 and +16. The default is level 0. The higher the level, the sharper the video details are. However, too high a sharpness level may cause white lines or halo-like effects to appear around objects.

7. Noise Reduction: Allows you to select whether the player will apply video noise reduction processing. The default is level 0, which turns off noise reduction. When this level is increased, the player adjusts the picture quality by applying video noise reduction. The higher the level, the more aggressively noise reduction functions are applied.

Remember that excessive noise reduction may cause a loss of detail. We recommend using the noise reduction function only when you encounter poorly encoded or compressed video that has apparent noise artifacts.

Select the Best Output Resolution

One of the major advantages of the UDP-203 is its ability to play Ultra High-Definition Blu-ray video and also up-convert high-definition video and standard definition video to Ultra High-Definition. The player offers several standard, HD and UHD video output resolutions. For best results, it is important to select an output resolution that best matches your TV or display.

The rule of thumb when selecting an output resolution is to match the native resolution of your TV or display as closely as possible. The native resolution is the resolution of the actual display component in the TV, such as the OLED panel, Plasma panel, LCD panel, or DLP™ chip. The TV may accept input signals with lower or higher resolutions than its native resolution. In such cases, the electronics in the TV will upscale or downscale the video to fit its display component. Unfortunately, many TVs on the market only do an average job of scaling the video and if you set the UDP-203 to output a resolution that matches or is very close to the native resolution of the TV, you are more likely to get a great picture. Most TVs or projectors can communicate their native resolution to the player via the HDMI connection, so setting the Output Resolution to Auto is generally the best choice for most customers. However in rare cases the TV or projector may not correctly present its native resolution, or the installer may decide a certain resolution works better. The UDP -203 can be set to a fixed Custom Resolution if so desired.

For most new displays on the market, the best output resolution will be either UHD or 1080p. A few early

model “1080p” displays did not accept a 1080p signal. For these displays, the best output resolution is 1080i.

For small screen digital TVs this will likely be 720p. For even earlier CRT tube or rear projection TVs this will likely be 1080i. For EDTV displays (very rare if they have HDMI or DVI) this will be 480p (NTSC) or 576p (PAL). These are general recommendations that work for most users, but there can be exceptions. Advanced users may want to try all supported resolutions and choose the one that provides the best result visually.

The UDP-203 supports a special Source Direct mode through its HDMI outputs. This resolution is recommended for use with external video processors or high-end TVs. In Source Direct mode, the player

works as a “transport”. It decodes video from the discs and then sends the raw video signal in its native

resolution and format, without extra processing, to the external video processor or TV. The actual output resolution varies by content:

The UDP-203 allows the installer to choose a Custom Resolution in the Setup Menu. Customer can switch between the Auto output resolution and the pre-selected Custom Resolution by pressing the RESOLUTION button on the remote control.

Determine the Display Aspect Ratio

Standard Definition, or 4:3 TV Wide Screen, or 16:9 TV

The TV Aspect Ratio is the proportional ratio of a TV screen’s width and height. Older television sets generally have a 4:3 aspect ratio – the width is 4/3 (or 1.33) times the height. Newer wide screen television sets have a 16:9 aspect ratio – the width is 16/9 (or 1.78) times the height. Although 4:3 TVs are very rare nowadays, program content originally formatted with a 4:3 aspect ratio is still very common. The Aspect Ratio setting decides how this type of 4:3 program content is displayed on a 16:9 TV screen.

The Aspect Ratio selections are 16:9 Wide and 16:9 Wide/Auto. Depending on your selection and the video format recorded on the discs, image appearance on the TV screen can be one of the following:

Audio Output Setup

The Audio Output Setup section of the Setup Menu allows you to configure audio output options.

1. Secondary Audio: Allows you to set the Secondary Audio Program mixing option. Some Bluray Discs contain a secondary audio and video program, such as a director’s commentary. Some Blu-ray Discs have a sound effect when you make menu choices. This Setup Menu item allows you to decide whether to mix the Secondary Audio Program and menu sounds into the primary audio.

 On – The Secondary Audio Program and menu sounds are mixed into the primary audio.

Usually this will cause the primary audio volume to be slightly reduced.

 Off (default) – The Secondary Audio Program and menu sounds are not mixed into the

primary audio and you cannot hear the secondary audio or menu sounds. This setting preserves the highest possible audio quality for the primary audio.

2. HDMI Audio Format: Allows you to select the digital audio output format from the HDMI port. The options are:

 Auto (default) – The player checks with the device connecting to the HDMI output to

automatically determine which audio format to use.

 LPCM – Digital audio output via HDMI will be in the multi-channel Linear PCM format.

When this option is selected, compressed audio bit streams will be decoded by the player. This setting is recommended when connecting the HDMI output directly to a TV or to a receiver without advanced audio decoding capabilities.

 Bitstream – Digital audio output via HDMI will be in bitstream format. This option is

recommended when connecting the HDMI output to an A/V receiver or processor that supports advanced audio decoding, such as Dolby Atmos, Dolby TrueHD and DTS:X, DTS-HD Master Audio.

 Off – No digital audio output via HDMI.

NOTE

 If you use HDMI to connect audio to an HDMI A/V receiver or audio processor, it is

important that you choose 720p or higher HDMI output resolution when playing high resolution audio content (DVD-Audio, SACD, Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio). According to the HDMI specification, the bandwidth available for audio is proportional to the total bandwidth used by video. At 480p/576p resolution, the HDMI specification can

S E T U P M E N U O P T I O N S

only support 2 channels of audio with high sample rate (up to 192kHz), or 8 channels of audio with standard sample rate (up to 48kHz). If you play high resolution audio content at the 480p/576p resolution, you may get reduced audio resolution, incomplete audio channels, or even no audio/video output at all. Choosing a higher output resolution such as 720p or above allows enough bandwidth for all high sample rate audio channels.

3. S/PDIF Output: Allows you to set the audio format and the upper sample rate limit for coaxial/optical (S/PDIF) digital outputs. The upper sample rate limit is used to decide whether the player shall down-sample audio (the player does not up-sample audio to higher sample rates).

 48k LPCM – Forces down-mixed 2-channel, linear PCM (LPCM) digital audio format, and sets

the maximum sample rate to 48kHz. This is supported by most receivers/amplifiers.

 96k LPCM – Forces down-mixed 2-channel, linear PCM (LPCM) digital audio format and sets

the maximum sample rate to 96kHz. It can result in better audio quality but ensure the receiver/amplifier can support it.

 192k LPCM – Forces down-mixed 2-channel, linear PCM (LPCM) digital audio format and

sets the maximum sample rate to192kHz. It can result in better audio quality but ensure the receiver/amplifier can support it.

 Bitstream (default) – Passes audio as compressed bit-stream format to the receiver/amplifier.

Choose this setting if your receiver/amplifier is capable of decoding Dolby Digital and/or DTS.

NOTE

 Due to copyright restrictions and bandwidth limitations, SACD audio cannot be sent through

the coaxial/optical audio output, and the high resolution audio on DVD-Audio and Blu-ray discs will be sent out at reduced resolution. Details can be found on page 16.

4. DVD-Audio Mode: Select which portion of a DVD-Audio disc to play.

 DVD-Audio (default) – Play the DVD-Audio portion of the disc with high-resolution audio.

 DVD-Video – Play the DVD-Video portion of the disc with Dolby Digital or DTS audio.

5. SACD Priority: Select which audio layer to play for SACD (Super Audio CD).

 Multi-Channel (default) – Play the high resolution multi-channel surround audio layer  Stereo – Play the high resolution 2-channel stereo audio layer  CD Mode – Play the CD layer of a hybrid SACD disc

6. SACD Output: Allows you to select the audio output format for SACD playback.  Auto (default) – The player checks with the device connected to the HDMI output to

automatically determine which audio format (DSD or PCM) to use for SACD playback.

 PCM – SACD data is converted into multi-channel, high-resolution PCM data. The converted

PCM data is then output through HDMI or the internal DAC (Digital to Analog Converter) for the analog audio output ports. If you use a receiver that supports HDMI v1.1 to listen to SACD, please select this option. You may also want to select this option if you prefer the sound quality of the DSD-to-PCM conversion.

S E T U P M E N U O P T I O N S

 DSD – SACD Direct Stream Digital (DSD) data is output over HDMI without any conversion.

For the analog audio outputs, DSD data is converted into an analog signal directly by the internal DAC. If you use a receiver that supports HDMI v1.2a with DSD over HDMI, or you prefer the sound quality of straight DSD to analog, please select this option.

7. A/V Sync: Allows you to add a slight delay to the audio so it is synchronized to the video. You may use the LEFT/RIGHT ARROW buttons on the remote to decrease/increase the audio delay. The delay can be adjusted in 10ms steps and within the range of -100ms to +200ms. The delayed time will be applied to all output terminals including HDMI, Coaxial, Optical, Stereo (or 7.1) outputs.

NOTE

 The actual audio delay effect might be different for each of the output terminals due to

the different audio process algorithms and signal paths used for each output. Please adjust this setting based on the actual output terminal in use.

 The negative adjustment values are for cancelling out the audio delay that the player

automatically applies. Depending on the video source and the time it takes to process the video, the main decoder chip automatically applies an audio delay in order to optimize audio video synchronization. The negative manual settings reduce the automatic audio delay, while the positive manual settings apply additional delay. Any negative value setting beyond the player's automatic delay will be treated as completely cancelling the automatic delay. For example, if the A/V Sync value is manually set to 100ms and for the current video source the player applies a 70ms automatic audio delay, the final result is that the 70ms audio delay gets cancelled and the audio is not delayed at all. It is not possible to put audio ahead of video using this setting.

S E T U P M E N U O P T I O N S

Audio Processing Setup

The Audio Processing section of the Setup Menu allows you to configure how the player will process audio signals before sending them to the output. In this section, all of the settings only affect the analog audio outputs, except for Dynamic Range Control (DRC), which also affects HDMI audio.

1. Output Volume: Allows you to enable or disable the analog volume controls (also known as Variable Audio). The available options are:

 Variable (default) – Enables the analog volume control. Use the VOL+/- buttons on the remote

to decrease/increase the analog audio output level (the maximum is 100).

 Fixed – Disables the analog volume control. The VOL+/- buttons on the remote will no longer

affect the analog audio output, and the volume level is fixed to 100.

2. Power On Volume: Allows you to set the initial audio volume level after power on. This option will be applied to the stereo and 7.1 audio outputs.

 Last (default) – Power on with the previous volume level before the player was turned off. This

choice is recommended for regular use.

 40 (custom) – Power on with your preferred volume level. You may use the LEFT/RIGHT

ARROW buttons on the remote to decrease/increase the volume level. The default level is 40.

3. Maximum Volume: Allows you to set the maximum volume level. This option will be applied to the stereo and 7.1audio outputs. You may use the LEFT/RIGHT ARROW buttons on the remote to decrease/increase the volume level. The default value is 100.

4. Dynamic Range Control: Allows you to set the Dynamic Range Compression (DRC). DRC can smooth out the sonic peaks and valleys common with wide-range digital audio. Enabling DRC may make low level audio more audible during low-level listening. Turning off DRC restores the sonic energy present in the original recording.

 Auto (default) – Plays at the dynamic range specified by the disc. This option applies to certain

Blu-ray Discs only, which have DRC instructions encoded in the Dolby TrueHD audio tracks.

 On – Turn on DRC for all Dolby and DTS audio formats. This option applies to all DVD and Blu-

ray Discs.

 Off – Turn off DRC.

S E T U P M E N U O P T I O N S

NOTE

 Dynamic Range Compression is applied to the analog audio output and digital audio outputs

(HDMI, Coaxial and Optical) when the audio format is set to PCM.

5. Filter Characteristics: Configure the digital filter for the audio DAC. Some customers may prefer one type of filter over others.

 Sharp Roll-off – Select the Sharp Roll-off filter.  Short-Delay Sharp (default) – Select the Short-Delay Roll-off filter.  Slow Roll-off – Select the Slow Roll-off filter.  Short-Delay Slow – Select the Short-Delay Slow Roll-off filter.  Super Slow – Select the Super Slow Roll-off filter.

6. Speaker Configuration: In the Speaker Configuration menu you can configure speaker settings

such as down-mix mode, number of speakers, their distance, size and trim level. The Speaker Configuration menu shows an illustration of speaker placement to assist you in properly configuring your speakers. Please refer to the Speaker Configuration section on page 64 for details of each option.

7. Crossover: Allows you to set the Bass Management kick-in frequency for all speakers. When the speaker size is set to Small in Speaker Configuration (see page65), bass information below this frequency is not passed to the speakers to reduce possible distortion, and if the subwoofer is available, bass information will be redirected to the subwoofer. When all speaker sizes are set to Large, there is no Bass Management.

 40Hz / 50Hz / 60Hz / 70Hz / 80Hz / 90Hz / 100Hz / 110Hz / 120Hz / 130Hz / 140Hz / 150Hz

/160Hz / 200Hz / 250Hz – These are the available crossover frequencies. You can press the UP/DOWN ARROW buttons and the ENTER buttons to select it. This option applies to all

speakers (center front, surround, and surround back speakers). By default the crossover frequency is 80Hz.

8. DTS Neo:6 Mode: Allows you to enable DTS Neo:6 audio processing and select the listening mode. DTS Neo:6 is a digital signal processing that can expand the original stereo source to 7.0 (L, R, C, LS, RS, LR, RR) or 7.1 (with Bass Management) surround.

 Music – Enables DTS Neo:6 audio processing for stereo music sources.  Cinema – Enables DTS Neo:6 audio processing for digital TV box or stereo movie sources.  Off (default) – Turns off the DTS Neo:6 to keep the original audio quality.

S E T U P M E N U O P T I O N S

Speaker Configuration

In the Speaker Configuration menu you can configure speaker settings such as down-mix mode, number of speakers, their distance, size and trim level. The Speaker Configuration menu shows an illustration of speaker placement to assist you in properly configuring your speakers.

Upon entering this menu, the cursor is positioned on the front left speaker. You may use the LEFT/RIGHT ARROW buttons to move the cursor. The RIGHT ARROW button moves the cursor clockwise, and the LEFT ARROW button moves the cursor counterclockwise. When the cursor is over the Down Mix, Test Tone or Exit options, you can also use the UP/DOWN ARROW buttons to highlight these options.

NOTE

 Dynamic Range Control (DRC) and A/V Sync also affect the HDMI, coaxial, and

optical outputs.

 Speaker Configuration mainly applies to the multi-channel analog audio outputs.

However, when S/PDIF Output is set to LPCM in the Setup Menu, its signal becomes a down-mixed stereo version of the multi-channel signal that is sent to the multi-channel analog audio outputs. As a result, the LPCM signal from the coaxial and optical output is affected by the settings in Speaker Configuration.

 HDMI is unaffected by the settings in Speaker Configuration, and the coaxial and

optical outputs are also unaffected by these settings when S/PDIF Output is set to Bitstream.

Down Mix Mode

Downmixing is the process of converting multi-channel audio to a lesser number of channels. For example, converting a 5.1ch source to stereo or converting a 7.1ch source to 5.1ch. Downmixing allows the audio output from the player to match the exact number of speakers available in your home theater.

The current down mix mode is displayed in the lower right corner of the speaker placement illustration. To change the audio down mix setting, press the ENTER button while the cursor is over the Down Mix option. The following down mix modes are available:

S E T U P M E N U O P T I O N S

 LT/RT – Left Total/Right Total. The center and surround channels are mixed into the two front

channels according to the LT/RT matrix. A Dolby Pro Logic receiver will decode the two-channel audio into surround audio.

 Stereo – This mode down mixes multi-channel audio to 2-channel stereo output. For original

stereo content the output will not change. For original multi-channel content the surround and center channels will be mixed with the left and right front channels. This is recommended for use with TV sets or stereo receiver/amplifiers.

 5.1Ch – This mode enables 5.1ch decoded audio output. The number of actual output channels

depends on the disc. If the source content has more channels, the surround back channels will be mixed into the surround channels.

 7.1Ch (default) – This mode enables 7.1ch decoded audio output. The number of actual output

channels depends on the disc. For 6.1ch contents, the left and right surround back speakers will both output the same surround back audio channel.

Test Tone

Test tones are artificially-created sounds that are used to test your audio speaker system and help to identify any wiring faults. By default the Test Tone is set to Off, with the status displayed in the lower left corner of the screen.

To begin the test, press the ARROW buttons to highlight the Test Tone option, and press the Enter button to change the test tone status to On. Press the ARROW buttons to select a speaker, and you will hear the test sounds. To stop the test process, press the ARROW buttons to highlight the Test Tone option and press the Enter button to switch the status back to Off.

Please note these test tones only work with the multi-channel analog audio outputs and are only suitable for channel identification purposes. For comprehensive speaker configuration, we recommend using the dedicated test tones found on professional audio calibration discs.

Speaker Settings

You can set the size, distance and trim level for each speaker by using the LEFT/RIGHT ARROW buttons to move the cursor to highlight the speaker and then press the ENTER button. The Speaker

Settings menu on the right side of the screen will be activated. In Speaker Settings, use the UP/DOWN ARROW buttons to select a parameter, and then press the ENTER button to change it. To exit the Speaker Settings menu and return to the Speaker Configuration illustration, press the LEFT

S E T U P M E N U O P T I O N S

ARROW button or select the Exit option. You can also move on to configure the next speaker by selecting the Next Speaker option.

The following speaker parameters can be configured:

1. Size: The following speaker size parameters control bass filtering for the speakers.

 Large – All audio content is passed to the appropriate speaker.  Small – All audio content, except for bass frequencies, is passed to the appropriate speaker.

The purpose is to reduce possible distortion. If a subwoofer is available, bass frequencies are re-directed to the subwoofer, otherwise, they are discarded. The bass frequency upper limit is set by the Crossover Frequency selection in the Setup Menu (see page 63 for details).

 Off – Speaker for the corresponding position does not exist. Audio for the missing speaker is

redirected to other speakers or discarded if redirection is not possible.

 On (for Subwoofer only) – Specifies that a subwoofer is available.

NOTE

 The Size for Front, Surround and Surround Back speakers is configured in pairs.

Changes to the size of one speaker will automatically change the other of the pair.

2. Distance: The speaker distance parameters set delay control for the corresponding audio channel. The delay is to compensate for the audio propagation time difference caused by the placement of speakers.

Speaker distance compensation is not required if the A/V receiver has the capability to adjust channel delay and compensate for speaker distance differences. However, if your receiver does not have such functions (most receivers do not offer these functions for their multi-channel analog input), you may adjust them through the player. Speaker distance delay is only applied if the player is decoding multi-channel audio. If you use bitstream audio output to your A/V receiver, the bitstream audio is not adjusted for speaker distance delay.

A typical 7.1-channel speaker layout and their speaker distance measurements are displayed as below:

S E T U P M E N U O P T I O N S

In the above diagram, measure the distance (in feet) from the primary listening position to the Front Left or Front Right Speaker. Enter the distance of the Front Speakers ( in the above picture) into the Speaker Configuration menu.

Next, measure the distance (in feet) from center speaker () to the listening position. Move the cursor to highlight the Center speaker in the Channel Delay setup page, and enter the distance (as close as possible) in feet. Repeat for each speaker in the system (Center, Surround Left, Surround Right, Surround Back Left, Surround Back Right and Subwoofer) as available. The player will insert appropriate delay to make sure sound waves from different speakers arrive at the listener at the same time.

It is possible to independently set distances for each speaker. Speaker distances can be set to the actual spatial distance of the speakers.

If the channel delay settings cannot match your speaker configuration, please set all distances to the same and use your receiver/amplifier to set the channel delay.

3. Trim: The speaker trim level parameters sets the volume of each individual channel. Channel trim is generally not required since most A/V receivers have the capability to adjust channel trim and compensate for speaker sensitivity differences. However, if your receiver does not have such functions (many receivers do not support channel trim for their multi-channel analog inputs), you may adjust channel trim through the player. For most accurate results, it is recommended that you use test tones from a calibration disc, such as Digital Video Essentials HD Basics, and a SPL (Sound Pressure Level) meter. The trim level can be set to +/- 10dB in 0.5dB increments.

NOTE

 Increasing the Trim Level above 0dB may result in distortion if the original audio level is

already high. When this occurs the waveform becomes clipped and audible distortion can be heard. In this situation, it is necessary to reduce the Trim Level until the distortion is removed. When using the Trim Level for speakers, it is recommended that you set the least sensitive speaker’s Trim Level to 0dB, and set other speakers’ Trim Level to negative values.

 Each speaker can be set to independent trim levels and there is no linked pair limitation.

Device Setup

The Device Setup section of the Setup Menu system allows you to configure additional player options related to the hardware and control functions.

1. Firmware Information: Displays the currently installed firmware version.

2. Firmware Upgrade: Upgrades the player’s firmware. This operation is only available when the playback is completely stopped or when there is no disc loaded.

The firmware is the system software that controls the features and functions of the player. Since the Blu-ray Disc specifications are new and evolving, it is possible that a Blu-ray Disc manufactured after the player was manufactured uses certain new features of the Blu-ray Disc specifications. To ensure the best possible viewing experience, the player may need a firmware update from time to time. Please visit the OPPO Digital web site www.oppodigital.com to check for firmware updates and instructions on installing the updates.

There are three ways to upgrade the player’s firmware:

 Via USB – You may download the firmware files from the OPPO Digital web site to a USB

drive and then use the USB drive to upgrade the player. Please follow the instructions on the firmware download web page.

 Via Disc – You may request a firmware upgrade disc from OPPO Digital or download a disc

image from the OPPO Digital web site and burn an upgrade disc. Please follow the instructions that come with the upgrade disc.

 Via Network – If the player has a working Internet connection (see pages 18 and 72), you may

upgrade the player directly over the Internet. Please follow the instructions on your TV screen.

3. Firmware Notification: Allows you to set whether the player should automatically check for new firmware versions on the Internet server and notifies you about new firmware.

 On (default) – Checks for firmware updates automatically and notifies the user about new

firmware. Requires a working network connection.

 Off – Does not check for new firmware version automatically.

4. Remote Control Code: The UDP-203 can respond to one of four sets of remote control codes. The default is “Code 1”. If you have other OPPO products in the vicinity of the UDP-203, the other products may respond to the UDP-203 remote control. To prevent this, you can select a different remote code. The available codes are:

S E T U P M E N U O P T I O N S

 Code 1 (default) – OPPO disc player remote code is set to 1. This is the default remote code.  Code 2 – OPPO disc player remote code is set to 2. Use this code if you have other OPPO

products placed close to the UDP-203.

 Code 3 – OPPO disc player remote code is set to 3. Use this code if you have other OPPO

products placed close to the UDP-203.

 Alt. Code – Alternative remote code. The alternative remote control code enables users to

program their universal remote controls that come with TV, projector or A/V receiver to operate the OPPO player. If the universal remote control has a DVD player control function, please program it with the code for Toshiba, Philips, Magnavox, Marantz or Zenith DVD players. Since each brand of remote control may have several sets of codes, you may need to try several times using different codes to find a working code.

If you have selected a new remote code, you must set the remote control handset to use the same code. If you have selected Alt. Code, the supplied handset will not operate the player, and you must use a universal remote control with the properly configured code set.

5. IR In: The UDP-203 provides two IR In port to allow you to set the UDP-203 receive remote control signals from the front or the back.

 Front (default) – Enables IR In port on the front for receive remote control signals.  Back – Enables IR In port on the back for receive remote control signals.

6. HDMI CEC: Allows you to set the HDMI Consumer Electronics Control (CEC) mode. CEC is an optional HDMI feature that enables convenient remote control and automatic setup of consumer electronics over the HDMI connection. The remote control function allows you to use a single remote handset to operate multiple devices connected via HDMI. For example, you may use the TV remote to control playback of the Blu-ray Disc player. The automatic setup function can automatically turn on the TV and change to the proper input when you start playing a disc in the Bluray Disc player. It can also turn off the player automatically when you turn off the TV. The implementation and compatibility of this feature varies by device manufacturer. Each may only implement part of the features or add their own proprietary functions. The manufacturer-specific

implementation of the HDMI CEC function is often given a proprietary name of “…Link” or “…Sync”.

The UDP-203 provides three HDMI CEC function modes for its HDMI Output (Main) port:

 Off (default) – HDMI CEC feature is turned off on HDMI output terminal. The player will not

respond to HDMI CEC commands from other devices, nor will it setup other devices automatically.

 On – HDMI CEC is enabled on HDMI output. Use this mode if your other devices are

compatible with the player.

 Limited – HDMI CEC is enabled on HDMI output, but the UDP-203 will only respond to

playback control commands. It will not respond or issue power on/off and input selection commands. Use this mode if you do not want the automatic setup function to turn on/off your devices.

7. Standby Mode: Allows you to choose between two standby modes. In Energy Efficient mode, the player consumes a minimal amount of power but takes more time to get ready for operation after being turned on. In Network Standby mode, the player can be woken up over the network and may start up faster at the expense of additional power consumption during the standby period.

 Energy Efficient (default) – The player will take slightly longer to start up, but will consume

less power in standby mode. This mode is recommended for regular use.

S E T U P M E N U O P T I O N S

 Network Standby – This mode allows to wake the player in standby mode over the network.

The player takes less time to start up but consumes more power in standby mode.

8. Auto Power Off: To allow the player to auto-shutdown after 30 minutes of inactivity. This can help reduce power consumption and prolong the service life of you player.

 On – Enable the Auto Power Off.

 Off (default) – Disable the Auto Power Off.

9. Sleep Timer: Allows you to specify the amount of time before the player automatically turns itself off.

 Off (default) – The player will not turn itself off automatically.  30/45/60/90/120 Min – After the specified time, the player automatically shuts itself down. You

can press the UP/DOWN ARROW buttons and the ENTER button to select the desired time. Once selected, the remaining minutes will be displayed to the right of the “Sleep Timer” option.

10. Power On Input: Allow you to set the initial input source after power on. It is recommended that you set this option only if you plan to use the player as a dedicated processor or per-amplifier.

 Blu-Ray (default) – Power on with the regular Blu-ray Home Menu. This choice is

recommended for regular use.

 Last Input – Power on with the last input source. Depending on the availability of the input

device, you may experience a blank screen on the display or “No signal” warning message.

11. Front Panel Brightness: Allows you to control the display intensity of the front panel Vacuum Fluorescent Display (VFD) information window and the Power indicator light. If you feel that the display becomes a distraction to your enjoyment of the video, this option allows you to dim it or turn it off.

 Standard (default) – The VFD window and the Power indicator light are at full brightness.  Dim – The VFD window and the Power indicator light are at reduced brightness.  Off – The VFD window is turned off and the Power indicator light is at dimmest brightness. In

this mode, the display and indicator light will resume momentarily if there is any user operation.

12. Persistent Storage: Allows you to manage the persistent storage for BD-Video content. The persistent storage is a data storage area that holds additional content for BonusView and BD-Live features. The data will be kept even if you turn off the player. The following persistent storage management options are available:

 Storage Device – Allows you to select which storage device should be used as the persistent

storage. There are also three USB ports on the player that can accept a USB drive to be used as the persistent storage. You may choose from the following:

 Internal Flash – Uses the internal flash memory for persistent storage.  USB Drive – Uses a USB drive for persistent storage. To meet the specification for BD-

Live, a USB flash drive of 1GB or larger is required. A USB hard drive is not recommended.

NOTE

 The new storage device choice becomes effective only after the player is restarted.

Please make sure that you turn off the player and then turn it back on after changing the Storage Device option.

modules and makes Wireless Setting, IP Setting, Proxy Setting and Connection Test options un-selectable.

4. Wireless Setting – Start the Wireless Setup Assistant. You can start the Wireless Setup

Assistant by selecting the Wireless Setting option, or by selecting Wireless in Internet Connection menu. The procedure is described as follows:

The player first searches for the previous wireless settings. If they exist, a message will pop up to remind you.

S E T U P M E N U O P T I O N S

 Use Previous – Uses the previous wireless settings. A summary of the previous wireless

settings will display, showing information such as the SSID (network name), Security Mode and Password.

After verifying the previous settings, the player will test the connection and display the results.

 Start New – Creates a new wireless configuration. The UDP-203 supports three wireless

configuration methods:

 Scan – Scans for an available wireless network. The player automatically scans for any

available wireless networks and displays the search results in a window. You can press the UP/DOWN ARROW buttons to highlight a network and then press the ENTER button to select it. If this network is secured, you will need to input the password using the remote control. The player will then test the connection and display the results.

 Manual – Allows you to manually enter the information for a wireless network. You need

to use the remote control to input the SSID, select the Security Mode and input the Password. The player will then test the connection and display the results.

 WPS – Starts the Wi-Fi Protected Setup. The UDP-203 supports the WPS standard to

provide an easy and secure establishment of a wireless home network. Configures the WPS using a PIN (Personal Identification Number). The UDP-203 will generate a PIN code and you will need to input it into the software control panel of your wireless router or access point. Please follow the on-screen instructions.

S E T U P M E N U O P T I O N S

NOTE

 SSID is short for Service Set Identifier. It is an identifier for each wireless router or

access point, and is also referred as a network name.

 WPS is short for Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS). It is the latest standard for easy

and secure wireless home network configuration. It is also named Wi-Fi Simple Config. To use WPS, a WPS compatible router or access point is required.

5. IP Setting: Determines how the player obtains its IP address.

 Auto (DHCP) – The player automatically obtains its IP address information using DHCP

(Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol). This is the default setting. In most cases, automatic IP configuration should be used.

 Manual – Allows you to manually enter the numeric IP address. Set the IP configuration

manually only when the router has no DHCP server functions or when the router’s DHCP

server function is disabled. For more information on how to manually configure the Internet connection and what values to use, please consult your broadband router/modem instruction manuals or call your Internet service provider.

 Internet Connection – Depending on the setting in Internet Connection, this can be

either “Wireless” or “Ethernet”.

 IP Address: The Internet Protocol address of the player. When IP Setting is set to Auto

(DHCP), the value displayed here is obtained using DHCP and cannot be changed.

 Subnet Mask: Each IP address has an associated subnet mask. It is used by the player to

decide whether to route network traffic through the router or directly to another device on the same network. When IP Setting is set to Auto (DHCP), the value displayed here is obtained using DHCP and cannot be changed.

 Gateway: The IP address of the router. It is also called “default gateway” or “default

router”. When IP Setting is set to Auto (DHCP), the value displayed here is obtained

using DHCP and cannot be changed.

 DNS 1: The IP address of the primary DNS (Domain Name System) server. DNS is the

mechanism used to translate human-readable addresses (such as www.oppodigital.com) to numeric IP addresses. When IP Setting is set to Auto (DHCP), the value displayed here is obtained using DHCP and cannot be changed.

 DNS 2: The IP address of the secondary DNS server. When IP Setting is set to Auto

(DHCP), the value displayed here is obtained using DHCP and cannot be changed.

6. Proxy Setting: Allows you to configure the proxy server settings. The proxy server works as an intermediary for network communication between clients and other servers, which can provide benefits like security, anonymity, or even circumvention of regional restrictions.

 On – Accesses the Internet via a proxy server.

 Proxy Host: Input the proxy host name using the remote control.  Proxy Port: Input the proxy host port number using the remote control.

 Off (default) – Disables the use of a proxy server. We recommend keeping Proxy Setting set to Off, unless you have a working Proxy Host and

Proxy Port, and have to use the proxy server in order to access the internet.

S E T U P M E N U O P T I O N S

7. Connection Test: Allows you to test the Internet connection. It is recommended that you test the connection when you initially connect the player to the Internet, or whenever changes to Connection Method, Wireless Setting, IP Setting and other network parameters are made.

8. BD-Live Network Access: Used to permit or restrict BD-Live content access.

 On – BD-Live access is permitted.  Limited – BD-Live access is permitted only for content that has a valid content owner

certificate. Internet access is prohibited if the BD-Live content does not have a certificate. This option ensures that you are accessing only authentic content, although it may block your access to smaller independent content providers.

 Off (default) – BD-Live access is prohibited.

9. My Network: Configures the My Network (in-home media sharing) client. My Network enables the player to stream audio, video, and photos from media servers within the home network.

 On (default) – Enables local network streaming. A broadband internet connection is required

(details on page 18), and special hardware/software configurations are required. The available media servers are listed inside the Network option of the Home Menu.

 Off – Disables local network streaming. No media servers will be shown in the Network menu,

and a warning message will pop up once you try to enter the Network menu.

RS-232 Control Protocol

The OPPO UDP-203 is equipped with an RS-232 port for wired remote control. The RS-232 port is configured as a DCE device using a female 9-pin D-Sub type connector.

RS-232 Pin Configuration:

The pin out of the UDP-203 RS-232C port is as the following:

This pin configuration allows a PC running a serial terminal program (such as Hyper Terminal) to communicate with the player using a straight-through DB9 9-pin RS-232 serial cable. Do NOT use a “Null-Modem” type cable for PC connection. For connection to a remote control system, please refer to the documentation that comes with the remote control system.

Communication Settings:

Command Structure:

Each command starts with a # sign (ASCII 0x23), followed by a 3-character command code. If there are any parameters for the command, the parameters are given in text format, separated by a space (ASCII 0x20) from the command code. The # character (ASCII 0x23) must never appear in the parameters. A carriage return (ASCII 0x0d) indicates the end of the command. A line feed (ASCII 0x0a) can optionally follow the carriage return and will be ignored. Each command generally may not exceed 25 bytes including the start of command and end of command bytes.

The illustration of the command structure is as the followings: <Command> = <Start of Command><Command Code>[<sp><Parameters>]<End of Command>

<Start of Command> = #, ASCII 0x23 <Command Code> = <byte><byte><byte> <sp> = space, ASCII 0x20 <Parameters> = command-specific <End of Command> = CR, ASCII 0x0d[LF, ASCII 0x0a]

Response Structure:

Upon receiving a command, the player shall try to execute the command and send back a response.

The response starts with an “@” sign (ASCII 0x23), followed by the original command code and a space

(ASCII 0x20), and a result code, either “OK” or “ER”. If there are any parameters or additional

message, the parameters or message is given in text format, separated by a space (ASCII 0x20) from the result code. The @ character (ASCII 0x40) must never appear in the parameters or message. A carriage return (ASCII 0x0d) indicates the end of response. Each response generally may not exceed 25 bytes including the start of response and the end of response bytes.

The illustration of the response structure is as the followings:

Status Update Messages Structure:

If the verbose mode is set to 2 or 3, the player will send status update messages automatically. These messages are not a response to any particular command. Any status change caused by commands from RS232 control, front panel buttons, IR remote control, or playback progress may trigger status update messages.

The status update messages have the following structure: <Update> = <Start of Update><Status Code>[<sp><Parameters>]<End of Update>

<Start of Update> = @, ASCII 0x40 <Status Code> = <byte><byte><byte> <sp> = space, ASCII 0x20 <Parameters> = status-specific <End of Response> = CR, ASCII 0x0d

Command Sequence:

Commands are executed in the order they are received. The control client should wait for a response from the player before sending the next command.

If the player receives a new command before executing the previous command, the player may execute the commands in sequence or discard the previous command, depending on the internal processing of the player. The control client should avoid sending multiple commands in sequence without waiting for a response.

If the host does not receive a response from the player 10 seconds after the command is issued, the host may consider the command or response lost during transmission, and can retransmit the command.

Command List:

A. Command that maps to a remote control button

This group of commands maps directly to the infrared remote control keys. No parameters are needed for these commands. The player handles the commands as if it receives the same IR remote commands. For actions that require a multiple-key sequence, such as go to a certain chapter (GOT command followed by multiple numeric key commands and the SEL command), the player responds to each command individually until the last command is received. At that time the player shall respond with either OK or ER depending on the result of the action.
