Disc care and handling

•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, become imbalanced or too thick, resulting in playback problems.

•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.

Setting the Remote Code

The remote control supports one of three remote codes. The default is “Code 1”. If you have other OPPO products placed close to the BDP-80, they may inadvertently respond to the BDP-80 remote control. In this case you can select a different remote code to avoid conflicts.

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 BDP-80 player is turned on and 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.

Method 1 – HDMI Connection Directly to TV

•If your TV has an HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) input, you can use the included HDMI cable to connect the player to the TV. This connection method delivers both video and audio in a pure digital format via a single cable. The HDMI video output of the player allows for the highest possible video quality and resolution.

•You may connect the composite video or S-Video cable to the TV for troubleshooting purposes, just in case there is a problem with HDMI. However it is not recommended to use the composite video or S-Video as the primary method of video delivery to the TV, because it only produces a standard definition video signal and forfeits the advantage of high definition video.

Method 2 – DVI Connection to TV

•If your TV has a DVI input that supports HDCP*, you can purchase an HDMI-DVI adapter cable to connect the player to the TV. This connection method delivers digital video to the TV without any signal degradation. The HDMI video output of the OPPO Blu-ray Disc player presents the highest possible video quality and resolution.

•Please use the Red/White audio cables to connect the STEREO AUDIO OUT terminals of the player to the TV. Make sure the audio cables are connected to the same input terminal group on the TV as the DVI input. Usually the input terminals are marked as “DVI Audio” or “PC Audio”. On some TVs you may need to use an RCA-3.5mm Mini-Jack adapter cable to connect the audio.

•You may connect the composite video or S-Video cable to the TV for trouble-shooting purpose, just in case there is a problem with DVI. However it is not recommended to use the composite video or S-Video as the primary method of video delivery to the TV, because it only produces a standard definition video signal and forfeits the advantage of high definition video.

*NOTE

HDCP stands for High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection. The HDMI output of the OPPO Blu-ray Disc player uses HDCP to encrypt the digital audio and video content. The TV needs to support HDCP so it can decrypt the content and properly display it.

Method 3 – Component Video Connection to TV

•If your TV has no digital video input but has component video inputs, please use a set of component video cables to connect the component video output of the player to the TV. The connectors are color coded, so please make sure the cable connections match on both ends. The component video connection will produce a very clear picture with high color accuracy.

•Please use the Red/White audio cables to connect the FL (Front Left) and FR (Front Right) terminals of the player to the TV. Make sure the audio cables are connected to the same input terminal group on the TV as the chosen component video input.

•When the Output Resolution is set to “Source Direct” (see page 19 for details), the component video connection will not output video when playing a Blu-ray Disc with 1080p 24Hz content. This is not a malfunction. You can set “Primary Output” in the “Video Setup” menu to “Component” (see page 46 for details) in order to properly use the component video connection.

•When playing a Blu-ray Disc, video resolution over the component output can be up to 1080i. 1080p content will be interlaced into 1080i signal for the component output.

•Video up-conversion over the component output is only available for unencrypted discs such as home video and consumer-created contents. Most commercially pressed DVD discs are CSSencrypted and will be limited to 480i/480p resolution. This restriction applies to the component output only. The HDMI output is protected with HDCP and has no such restriction.

•You may connect the composite video or S-Video cable to the TV for trouble-shooting purpose, just in case there is a problem with component video. However it is not recommended to use the composite video or S-Video as the primary method of video delivery to the TV, because it only produces a standard definition video signal and forfeits the advantage of high definition video.

Method 4 – HDMI Connection to Receiver and TV

•HDMI can transmit both audio and video signals over a single cable. If you have an HDMIcapable receiver that can support HDMI audio, you can simply run an HDMI cable from the player to your receiver and enable HDMI audio on the receiver (see your receiver’s owners’ manual for more information). The receiver usually has an HDMI output that you can connect to your TV to pass the video signal.

NOTE

HDMI is a wonderful thing. A single cable can transport both audio AND video from your player to your display. Be aware, however, that HDMI is an evolving standard, and there could 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.

In order to play multi-channel audio for all formats, the receiver must support HDMI v1.1 or later. For Blu-ray Disc, a receiver that supports HDMI v1.3 with decoding capability for Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio is preferred. Please check the specifications of your receiver to ensure that it meets the requirements.
