"As Far as Video Processing Goes, This Player Is Nearly Without Equal"

MOUNTAIN VIEW, CA--(Marketwire - April 15, 2008) - OPPO Digital (www.oppodigital.com), a
renowned leader in
up-converting DVD
players, today announced that its newly launched DV-983H Universal DVD Player has
received the highest recommendation from Secrets of Home Theater and
Fidelity, the online source for in-depth home theater reviews. In
fact, OPPO's flagship up-converting DVD player earned the first perfect
score in the Secrets DVD
Player Benchmark™, taking home top marks in more than twenty video
decoding and processing tests. The entire review and benchmark results can
be found here.
The DV-983H features an HDMI
output, 7.1-channel
audio and 1080p
up-conversion, making standard DVDs look and sound their best on today's
large screen, high resolution displays. The player incorporates Anchor
Bay's leading video processing technology to generate a clearer, smoother,
and true-to-life picture free of artifacts. There's a rich array of
features for serious home theater enthusiasts, including aspect ratio
conversion, multi-level zooming, special stretch modes, along with
source-adaptive, motion-adaptive, and edge-adaptive techniques.
Reviewer Kris Deering stated, "As far as video processing goes, this player
is nearly without equal. The ABT-102 solution [from Anchor
Bay], combined with the custom Mediatek decoder gives the 983H a level of
performance that we've only seen from designs costing a lot more than the
983H... The 983 passed every test we threw at it (and a few more that
aren't part of our Benchmark) with flying colors."
"We're excited to receive this distinct honor from the highly respected
voices at Secrets of Home Theater and High Fidelity," said Jason Liao,
vice-president of product development at OPPO Digital. "It underscores our
mission to develop innovative solutions that change the home theater
experience, while pushing the envelope of price/performance."
While the Secrets DVD Player Benchmark™ focused on video processing
performance, the DV-983H also offers a compelling audio experience with
support for 7.1 channel audio with Dolby Digital Surround EX decoding, DTS
Digital Surround, Dolby Digital, and Dolby Pro-Logic II, and support for
CD, Super Audio CD and DVD-Audio formats. The player features a USB 2.0
interface that lets users play audio and video from a USB device or enjoy a
high-resolution photo slide on their large screen television.
The DV-983H is available today for an estimated retail price of $399, and
can be ordered directly from OPPO Digital's web site www.oppodigital.com
and authorized resellers.
