IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Precautions
• Before connecting the AC power cord to the appliance,
make sure the voltage designation of the appliance
corresponds to the local electrical supply. If you are
unsure of your power supply, contact your local power
company. The acceptable power input range is AC ~
100V-240V, 50/60Hz.
• The player is still receiving power from the AC power
source as long as it is connected to the wall outlet,
even if the player itself has been turned off.
• Unplug the power cord if you are not going to use the
product for an extended period of time. Hold the power
plug when unplugging. Do not pull on the cord.
• The main plug is used as the mechanism for cutting off
power, therefore make sure it is easy to unplug.

SACD
• Some DualDiscs: A DualDisc is a two sided disc with
DVD on one side and digital audio on the other side. The
digital audio side does not meet the technical
specifications of the Compact Disc Digital Audio (CD-DA)
format so playback is not guaranteed.
• Music discs encoded with copyright protection
technologies: if the discs do not conform to the CD
standard, they may not be playable on this player.
• 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.

Changing 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-93, they may inadvertently respond to the BDP-93 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-93 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.

CAUTIONS
• 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 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.

Composite Video Cable
(optional)
HDMI Cable (to HDMI 1 or 2)
Method 1 – HDMI Connection Directly to a single 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.
• There are two HDMI output terminals (HDMI 1 and HDMI 2) on the rear panel of BDP-93, both
of which can be connected to your TV. We recommend to use HDMI 1 since it benefits from the
dedicated Marvell QDEO video processor, and set the “Primary Output” option in the setup
menu to “HDMI 1” (please refer to page 52 for more details).
• You may connect the composite video cable to the TV for troubleshooting purposes, in the
event that there is a problem with HDMI video. However it is not recommended to use the
composite 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 –HDMI Connection Directly to two TVs
• The two HDMI outputs (HDMI 1 and HDMI 2) available on the rear panel of BDP-93 can be
connected to two TVs at the same time, and each output can deliver the digital video and audio
signals.
• We recommend to connect your main TV (the one with larger screen size or the one that you
would watch more often) to HDMI 1 thus to benefit from the dedicated video processor, and set
the “Primary Output” option in the setup menu to “HDMI 2” to make sure that the HDMI 2 can
output high bit rate audio signals (please see more details on page 52).
• You may connect the composite video cable to one of your TVs for trouble-shooting purpose,
please refer to page 10 for more details.

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. We recommend to use HDMI 1 since it can
benefit from the dedicated video processor, and set the “Primary Output” option in the setup
menu to “HDMI 1” (please see more details on page 52).
• 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 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

• You may connect the composite video cable to the TV for trouble-shooting purpose, please
refer to page 10 for more details.
*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

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, and
remember to set the “Primary Output” option in the setup menu to “Analog” (please see more
details on page 52). 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 on the rear panel 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 “Primary Output” option in the “Video Setup” section of the Setup menu is set to
“HDMI 1” or “HDMI 2” (see page 52 for details), the component video connection will not output
video when playing a Blu-ray Disc with 1080p 24Hz content, or will only output video with a low
resolution (480i/576i) when playing a DVD. This is not a malfunction. You must set “Primary
Output” to “Analog” 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 cable to the TV for trouble-shooting purpose, please

Method 4 – HDMI Connection to Receiver and TV
• If you have an HDMI-capable 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.
• Either of the HDMI output terminals (HDMI 1 and/or HDMI 2) on the rear panel of the BDP-93
can be connected to your receiver. Preference should be given to HDMI 1 for video since it’s the
only output on the machine to benefit from the superior Marvell QDEO video processing solution,
and set the “Primary Output” option in the setup menu to “HDMI 1” (please refer to page 52).
NOTE
HDMI 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 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.
The HDMI outputs on the BDP-93 are HDMI v1.4, which is compatible with HDMI v1.3 and
earlier versions.

page 61.
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

HDMI audio (see page 14) 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 SACD, please use the HDMI or analog audio
connections.

• BDP-93 provides a Dual HDMI connection to make sure you can enjoy the highest possible
video quality and resolution, in addition to the high bit rate audio content. You can use the
included HDMI cable to connect the HDMI 1 output to your HDTV and use another HDMI cable
(not included) to connect the HDMI 2 output to your receiver, also set the “Primary Output”
option in the Video Setup section of the Setup menu to “HDMI 1” (see page 52 for details). In
this way you can utilize the dedicated video processor available for HDMI 1 output, and allow
your receiver which has no HDMI 1.4 inputs to work without any loss on the digital audio signals.
• Keep in mind that while Dual HDMI connection is only a recommended method, in fact, both of
the HDMI outputs (HDMI 1 and 2) on the BDP-93 can send out digital audio and video signals at
the same time, and can be connected to your TV or receiver/amplifier separately (see page 10
and 14 for details).
NOTE
• Please refer to the notes of HDMI connection available on page 14.
• If your receiver does not have audio input capability, please try alternate connection
methods discussed on pages 15 to 17.
