FBI warning and previews I've read that with the 981 you can skip the FBI warning and previews. Can you do the same with the 970?

Nope - that still doesn't work. I turned PBC off, because yes it was on previously, and I still don't have the ability to skip the FBI warnings etc. I'm assuming you should be able to just fast forward when the FBI warnings appear, correct?

I've tried this, and unless I'm doing it wrong, it does NOT work - it was one of the reasons I purchased this unit as well.

I think its a timing situation - basically, this doesn't feel like a feature more like a loophole (one which will be gladly exploited; I don't bootleg movies, I get it that its serious, and I don't need it forced, I mean, vcr's had FF>>). I may incorrect again, but then I'm guessing I'm still doing it wrong :-/

No.you must press STOP, then MENUIf you don't press those two buttons in that order, you will not get direct play.

Yes, press Stop button then press Menu button as soon as the DVD loads. I think it's called Direct Play feature.

You may have to disable PlayBack Control (PBC) in the Preferences menu on the player for this to work.Press "Stop"Go to "Preferences" in the setup menuSet Playback Control to "Off"That may do it.

Press then in quickly. I wouldn't wait over 1 second. Press one, then the other right away.

Get a 970 or if your feeling dangerous get a 980. sli makes both cards run at handicapped speeds and programs need to be coded for it so in almost every case 1 is better than 2.

The 990 is the newer model. As far as I can tell, there really isn't any difference except the price.

like many said go with AB800 or if you can afford it go with Einstein and you may not need to upgrade, ever. google einstein and you will see why. it is also made by Paul buff

There's a good compare of 970 and (worse than 4820) 4770K and 4770K is already better than 970. check cpuboss dot com. I'd run for the new one. Mine is simply amazing. I'm thinking about exchanging the HD to solid state. I work with audio (homestudio) and the CPU performs amazingly.

You might not care yet as a beginner, but the Digic II processor (but NOT the Digic III) can be modified with the third-party CHDK firmware. This means that, down the line, you can turn on all sorts of advanced features in the 710is (live histogram, RAW format, intervalometer, etc, etc, etc) but not in the 720.I have a 710 and absolutely love it.

Here is the comparison page from Oppo's website:http://www.oppodigital.com/dv981hd/dv981hd_comp.htmlThe main advantage of the 981 is the Faroudja chip, which delivers better-quality upscaling on non-DLP displays. The 981 also offers better-quality PAL->NTSC conversion than Oppo's other two models. Otherwise, as you pointed out, the other two models offer a lot of additional features (I wish my 981 had a memory-stick or USB input!). However, since you have a DLP, you probably want to get the 980 anyway (as the chart indicates). The Faroudja has a notorious "macroblocking" problem when used in conjunction with a lot of DLP displays.

Get the 981 for sure...It's the best quality one, for your quality set. Isn't that what you want, quality? Ijust got my Oppo 981HD and I'm telling you I'm amazed ....You can buy standard DVD's now and watch them in 1080P. . . My new 5271F 120 hz series from Sammy is Mind Blowing clear picture quality, almost 3D at times...Now I have this to go with it . What are you waiting for? Later . . .

No, only the 950XL. This was annoying as it that information was buried in the descriptions. It was, however, a relatively cheap lesson in caveat emptor.

I'm wondering this too. I don't think upconverting was a feature on the previous generation until you got up to the 919. Maybe we're seeing some feature trickle down. I sure hope so...

No. NO Netflix and NO Pandora. = NO SALE for me. :(I would stick with a Popcorn Hour A-200 or WD Live(if you don't care about menu aesthetics)

They send the Rev 1.0, so be careful if you need it for some of the FX series.

Thanks guys for the update. I ended up in buying nuvi 2460LMT and I liked voice command, bluetooth connection with my iphone4. I didn't like Jill's terrible voice and missing map details.When I cross speed limit then I see a blinking red notification on screen. Does you nuvi2460 LMT gives an audible warning when you cross speed limit?Thx

I'm glad you warned me. I notice there are firmware upgrades on their site. But why would I have to upgrade a brand new player? One of them said it was necessary to listen to audible books? I hope not. I may very well get back to you with questions. Thank you again!

I went for the dn1000 instead of the 810, because of the GUI. Other than that I really didnt see much of a difference in spec wise. My friend has the 810 and I will be receiving mine next week.

I have two SB-910's, no problems. Much better refresh time than the SB-700 I have. I will keep up with the D800 fps with no problem.

Awesome J.Ausfeld! When you get this figured out - please let us know. My wife tried to get me the 2550 for Christmas, but got confused and I ended up with a 2500. Meanwhile, I *love* the netflix streaming... it works great. Now if I can only add Pandora! (Also, I've been thinking that with web-enabled content, all kinds of applications could theoretically be programmed on a disc...).
