Highly Recommended
I have had the Oppo DV-981HD for a few months now, and have been extremely pleased with it's performance. It simply does everything it is supposed to do with ease. I love being able to view PAL DVDs as well as NTSC. Super color, amazing on-screen picture. You won't be disappointed.
HIghly recommended.
Great in USA, tough when travel
Before you think I'm really down on this player, let me mention I have bought two 981HD's and two 980H's for myself and some family members. All through Amazon. Our use of these players in the U.S. has been without problem. I have not been able to judge it against other players on really good video equipment, so I'll just say it is good enough for all of us.

Oppo Review
This Oppo DVD player is quite excellent. Very, very useful as it extends the life of your
old style DVD collection - competitive with Blu-Ray.

Since I have yet to purchase a Blu Ray, I couldn't imagine how much different it would be. You have an abundant amount of control over your picture & sound. Though I did wish they had another output but I could have gone to the next model & don't let the OSD fool you. It's different from the other name brands and takes some getting use to but once you see the picture, you'll see why its a wolf in sheeps clothing. I'm impressed. Now let's see how much is the oppo Blu Ray when it becomes available....Heh, Heh, Heh....
Would not play homemade DVDs
I bought this two weeks ago and looked forward to getting it. However I was very disappointed that it would not play my homemade movie collection. The only discs it would play are store bought movies. Everything else freezes up within minutes of starting. Picture quality was good and I thought the menus, remote, and general ease of use was fine, but that is besides the point if you can't watch your movie.
