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.  
To ensure proper ventilation around this product, do not  
place this product on a sofa, bed or rug. When installing  
this product on a wall or bookshelf, you need to provide  
appropriate space.  
High temperature will lead to abnormal operation of this  
unit. Do not expose this unit or batteries to direct sunlight  
or near other heating objects.  
When moving the player from a cold location to a warm  
one, or vice versa, moisture may condense on the laser  
pickup unit inside the player. Should this occur, the  
player may not operate properly. In such a case please  
turn the unit on for 1-2 hours (without a disc) to facilitate  
moisture evaporation.

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: among such discs, some do not conform to  
the CD standard and may not be usable on this player.  
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.  
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.  
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.  
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.  
Warped or cracked discs.  
Irregularly shaped discs, such as heart or business  
card shapes.  
o
o
Do not use record cleaning sprays or solvents such as  
benzene, thinner and anti-static spray.

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 CSS-  
encrypted 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 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.  
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.

Select the Best Output Resolution  
One of the major advantages of the OPPO Blu-Ray Disc Player is its ability to play high-definition Blu-Ray  
video and also up-convert standard definition video stored on DVD discs to high definition. The sophisticated  
video processor inside the player ensures that the video will have the best possible color, detail and motion.  
The player offers several standard and high definition video output resolutions. To get the best visual result, it  
is important to select an output resolution that best matches your TV or display device.  
The rule of thumb when selecting an output resolution is to match the “native resolution” of your TV or display  
device as closely as possible. The “native resolution” is the resolution of the actual display component in the  
TV, such as the Plasma panel, LCD panel, or DLP™ chip. The TV may accept input signals with lower or  
higher resolutions than its native resolution. In such cases the electronics in the TV will up-scale or down-  
scale the video to fit its display component. Unfortunately many TVs on the market only do an average job  
scaling the video. On the other hand, if you set the OPPO Blu-ray Disc Player to output a resolution that  
matches or is very close to the native resolution of the TV, you are more likely to get a great picture.  
For the latest generation of 1080p, “Full HD” or “True HD” displays, the best output resolution will naturally be  
1080p. (A few early model 1080p displays do not accept 1080p signal. For these displays the best output  
resolution to use is 1080i.) For all other digital televisions this will likely be 720p. For CRT tube or rear  
projection televisions this will likely be 1080i. For EDTV displays (very rare if they have HDMI or DVI) this will  
be 480p. These are general recommendations that work for most users, but there can be exceptions.  
Advanced users may want to try all supported resolutions and choose the one that provides the best visual  
result.  
The OPPO Blu-ray Disc Player supports a special “Source Direct” output resolution on its HDMI output. This  
resolution is recommended for use with external video processors or high-end TVs. In “Source Direct” mode,  
the player works as a “transport”. It decodes video from the discs and then sends the raw video signal in its  
native resolution and format, without extra processing, to the external video processor or TV. The actual  
output resolution varies by content:  
Content  
Source Direct Output Resolution  
NTSC DVD  
480i  
PAL DVD  
576i  
Most Blu-ray Movies (film-source)  
Most Blu-ray TV shows or Concerts  
(video-source)  
1080p 23.976Hz or 1080p 24Hz  
1080i  
SACD and DVD-Audio  
1080i  
Depending on your selection of “Primary Video  
Output”, the available output resolution selections  
will differ. For the HDMI output, the following  
output resolutions are available: Auto, 1080p,  
1080i, 720p, 480p/576p, 480i/576i, and Source  
Direct. If Auto” is selected, the player will  
determine its output resolution based on the best  
signal resolution that the TV can display.

NOTE  
In case you are not able to get a picture using the HDMI or component output, please  
connect the player to the TV using the composite video or S-Video output, and then  
use the Setup Menu to adjust the player settings.  
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 CSS-encrypted 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.  
Determine the Display Aspect Ratio  
Standard Definition, or 4:3 TV  
Wide screen, or 16:9 TV  
The aspect ratio is the proportional ratio of a TV screens width and height. Older television sets generally  
have a 4:3 aspect ratio – the width is 4/3 (or 1.33) times the height. Newer wide screen television sets have a  
16:9 aspect ratio – the width is 16/9 (or 1.78) times the height. For best performance, the video output of your  
player needs to match the screen aspect ratio of your TV. Since almost all Blu-ray Discs and many DVD discs  
are released in the wide screen format, it is highly recommended that you use a wide screen TV with the  
player.  
The Aspect Ratio selections are 4:3 Letterbox, 4:3 Pan & Scan, 16:9 Wide, and 16:9 Wide/Auto.  
Depending on your selection and the video format recorded on the discs, image appearance on the TV screen  
can be one of the following:

This function is available only when the discs are recorded with secondary video and  
audio programs.  
Discs may not always be played back according to the PIP and SAP buttons. Certain  
discs can ignore or override the remote control commands.  
The PIP and SAP Marks on the screen can be turned off using the Setup Menu of the  
player. (see page 44)  
BD-Live  
Some Blu-ray Disc titles are released with the BD-Live feature. BD-Live offers extra  
downloadable contents and additional online interactive programs. The available BD-Live  
contents vary by discs and studios, and may include additional subtitles, commentaries,  
preview trailers, games, and online chat. The player needs to be connected to the Internet in order to play  
BD-Live contents. (See page 17)  
Depending on how the studios organize their BD-Live contents, some Blu-ray Discs may start downloading  
BD-Live contents when playback starts; some have a BD-Live selection on its main menu; some may show a  
prompt to ask whether you would like to start downloading; and some may ask you to sign up for a  
membership or account. Please follow the instructions that come with the disc to enjoy BD-Live contents.  
Your Internet connection speed, the overall Internet traffic situation and the capacity of the BD-Live content  
servers can all affect how fast BD-Live contents can be downloaded. If you encounter slow downloading or  
intermittent playback, please play the disc without accessing the BD-Live features, or try again at a different  
time.  
When you use the BD-Live feature, the player or disc ID and your IP (Internet Protocol) address may be sent  
to the content provider via the Internet. Generally, no personally identifiable information is sent. However  
technologies exist to match your IP address to a certain geographical area or service provider. Your Internet  
service provider also has the knowledge of who is using which IP address. If the BD-Live content provider  
requires you to login using a membership or account, the content provider will have access to your  
membership or account information. Please check with your Internet service provider and the BD-Live content  
providers for their privacy policy.  
You can choose to restrict BD-Live access using the player’s Setup Menu (See page 63).

ADVANCED OPERATIONS  
TV System Selection  
While you may want to set the video output system (NTSC/PAL) to the same  
as that supported by your TV, realize that the OPPO Blu-ray Disc Player will  
convert any content that is not in the correct format your TV understands. The  
default output is NTSC for North America.  
P/N  
Press and hold the P/N button for 5 seconds on the remote control to cycle the  
video output to PAL, NTSC or “Multi” system. The TV screen displays the  
selected system name.  
Some points to keep in mind:  
When the video output is set to PAL or NTSC system, the player will convert the disc content to  
the selected system.  
When the video output is set to “Multi”, the player will not perform system conversion. The  
“Multi” mode is only to be used if your TV supports both NTSC and PAL systems.  
Most TV sets only support one of the NTSC or PAL systems. If the wrong output is selected,  
the TV may not display a picture. In this case repeatedly press the P/N button until a supported  
system is selected.  
The output system selected with the P/N button will be remembered when the player is turned  
off. The output system selection can also be done by setting the “TV System” item in the  
Video Setup” section of the player’s Setup Menu. (Refer to page 46 for details.)  
Output Resolution  
The OPPO BDP-80 Blu-ray Disc Player supports multiple output  
resolutions. For detailed discussion on how to choose the best output  
on page 19 of this manual.  
RESOLUTION  
If you would like to change the output resolution, you may do so by  
pressing the RESOLUTION button on the remote control:  
1. Make sure the video cable is properly connected.  
2. Turn on the TV. Adjust the TV to use the proper input (HDMI, DVI or Component).  
3. Make sure that the player is turned on. Although the output resolution can be changed “on the  
fly”, it is recommended that you stop playback and take out the disc before changing the output  
resolution. Press the RESOLUTION button. A “Resolution Setting” menu appears on the TV  
screen. In case the TV does not support the current resolution and you cannot see the  
“Resolution Setting” menu, the current resolution is also displayed on the front panel.  
4. Use the UP/DOWN ARROW buttons to select the new output resolution. You may also press  
the RESOLUTION button multiple times to cycle through the available output resolutions. The  
new resolution is displayed on the front panel just in case you cannot see the “Resolution  
Setting” menu.  
5. Press the ENTER button to apply the selected output resolution. Or, if you do not want to  
change the output resolution, press the RETURN button to exit.

NOTE  
Some TV sets do not support one or more output resolutions (particularly 1080p). If  
an incompatible output resolution is selected, you will get a blank screen or an error  
message. In this case please select an output resolution that is supported by the TV.  
In case you are not able to get a picture using the HDMI or component output, please  
connect the player to the TV using the composite video output, then use the Setup  
Menu to adjust the player settings.  
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 CSS-encrypted 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.  
Zooming and Aspect Ratio Control  
This feature zooms in or out of the displayed frame and also changes the  
aspect ratio (image width vs. height).

NOTE  
Some early DVD titles (released from 1997 until early 2000’s) use a 4:3 non-anamorphic  
widescreen aspect ratio. When played on a 16:9 display, the content is shown in a small  
window with black borders on all four sides. The top and bottom borders are encoded  
into the video. The left and right borders are added by the player to maintain the correct  
aspect ratio. For this type of discs the “x1.33” zoom mode can be used to eliminate the  
borders.  
4) Playing 16:9 BD or DVD on a 4:3 TV  
1:1 – The player maintains the correct 16:9 aspect ratio and adds borders to the top and bottom  
of the image.

MEDIA FILE PLAYBACK  
In addition to playing standard disc-based formats such as Blu-ray Disc, DVD, CD and SACD, the  
OPPO BDP-80 Blu-ray Disc Player can play media files. You can enjoy digital music, movies and  
photos stored on an optical disc (recordable CD or DVD) or a USB drive. Due to the variation of media,  
encoding software and techniques used, compatibility cannot be guaranteed for all user-created or  
downloaded contents. Support for such contents is on a best effort basis.  
Playback from a USB Drive  
The OPPO BDP-80 Blu-ray Disc Player is equipped with two USB ports, one  
on the front panel and the other on the back. You may use either to plug in a  
USB drive stored with digital music, movie and photo files.  
USB  
Device  
The USB ports are rated to provide a maximum of 5V, 500mA power to the USB drive. It is sufficient for  
all USB thumb drives and flash memory card readers, but may not be sufficient for USB hard disks. It is  
recommended that you use a USB hard disk with an external power supply.  
NOTE  
This unit supports “USB Mass Storage Class Bulk-Only Transport” devices only. Most  
USB thumbs drives, portable hard disk drives and card readers conform to this device  
class. Other USB devices such as MP3 players, digital cameras, and mobile phones  
may not be compatible.  
Supported USB drives must be formatted with the FAT (File Allocation Table) or FAT32  
file system. Drives formatted with NTFS file system are not supported.  
In some cases, an incompatible USB device may cause the player to stop responding. If  
this occurs simply turn off the power, remove the USB device, and turn the player back  
on.  
The player accesses the USB drive in read-only mode. In order to minimize the risk of  
data corruption, it is recommended that you only unplug the USB device when playback  
is completely stopped.  
The Home Menu  
When a USB drive or an optical disc stored with media files is inserted, the player presents a “Home Menu” to  
assist you in navigating and playing the files. You can also bring up the Home Menu with the HOME button  
on the remote control. The Home Menu is the starting point for accessing media files.

SETUP MENU OPTIONS  
The Setup Menu of the OPPO Blu-ray Disc Player presents many setup and configuration options. For  
most users, the default configuration will be sufficient and will not require any changes to the settings.  
However if you need to configure the player to perfectly match your home theater setup and viewing  
preferences, please refer to the following sections for details about each configuration option.  
Using the Setup Menu System  
In many places of this guide, the player’s Setup Menu needs to be adjusted to match your specific audio/video  
configuration. When performing menu adjustments, we will use the following terminology to indicate the  
location of the desired function:  
Setup Menu Section > Menu Item > Selection  
Setup Menu Section is the uppermost Setup Menu level. With the OPPO BDP-80 there are six (6) Setup  
Menu sections listed in the left column of the Setup Menu screen. They are: Playback Setup, Video Setup,  
Audio Format Setup, Audio Processing, Device Setup, and Network Setup.  
Menu Item is the parameter to be adjusted which appears in the center column of the Setup Menu. Once you  
enter a Setup Menu Section, the list of Menu Items and their current value are displayed in a box.  
Selection is the actual numeric or descriptive element that represents the change being made to the selected  
parameter. It is the item located to the right of its corresponding Menu Item.  
A Scroll Mark appears at the top or bottom of the menu when there are more Menu Items or Selections  
than what can fit in a screen. You may use the UP and DOWN ARROW buttons to scroll the display in order  
to access additional items.

The preceding diagram should give a good description of the various elements and their context. In this  
screen we could, for example, instruct you to set the Auto Play Mode parameter to Off in the Playback  
Setup section. To indicate where we were, you would see the following: Playback Setup > Auto Play Mode  
> Off.  
NOTE  
It is possible that some setup items or selections are grayed-out and inaccessible. This can  
be caused by the disc still being played back or interlocking with mutually exclusive setup  
items. Please stop playback or eject the disc before trying to change these setup items. If  
you still cannot access the setup item, please check for configuration conflicts and  
consistency. For example, if “Video Setup > Primary Output” is set to “Component”, the  
Output Resolution” menu selections “Auto” and “Source Direct” will be grayed-out.  
Setting “Primary Output” to “HDMI” will enable the “Auto” and “Source Direct” selections.  
To access the player’s Setup Menu simply press the SETUP button on the remote control. Since some Setup  
Menu options can become inaccessible when the player is playing a disc, it is recommended that you operate  
the Setup Menu when playback is fully stopped or when there is no disc in the player.

1. Picture Adjustment: To adjust picture control parameters. The OPPO BDP-80 Blu-ray Disc  
Player provides an array of picture controls. Please refer to the Picture Adjustment section on  
page 49 of this manual for details of each control.  
2. Primary Output: To select the primary video output port. The options are:  
HDMI – Use HDMI as the primary video output port. This setting will ensure that the HDMI  
output gets the best possible picture quality. Component, composite video and S-Video  
output may not be available or may be limited to a lower resolution based on content source  
limitations.  
Component – Use component video as the primary video output port. This setting will  
ensure that the component output will always be available and displays proper video  
signals.  
NOTE  
Copyright control mechanisms encoded on the disc may limit the output resolution of the  
component video output. For DVD, if CSS encryption is in use the output resolution is limited  
to no more than 480p/576p; for Blu-ray Discs, the output resolution is limited to no more than  
1080i, and could be lower if the disc contains the Image Constraint Token.  
3. TV Aspect Ratio: To set the aspect ratio of the player’s output image. The options are :  
4:3 Letterbox – Choose this when the display is standard 4:3. Widescreen video is  
displayed in “letterbox” format with black borders on top and bottom.  
4:3 Pan & Scan – Choose this when the display is standard 4:3. Widescreen video with the  
“Pan & Scan” flag will be cropped to fit the display.  
16:9 Wide – Choose this when the display is widescreen 16:9. 16:9 materials will be  
displayed in its native aspect ratio, and 4:3 materials will be stretched horizontally.  
16:9 Wide/Auto – Choose this when the display is widescreen 16:9. 16:9 materials will be  
displayed in its native aspect ratio, and 4:3 materials will be displayed with black borders on  
both sides in order to maintain the original 4:3 aspect ratio.

S E T U P M E N U O P T I O N S  
For a detailed description on how to choose a proper TV Aspect Ratio, please refer to the  
4. TV System: To choose the output video system or broadcast standard (PAL/NTSC) to match  
the type of TV. The options are:  
NTSC (default) – When playing NTSC-encoded discs, no system conversion is performed.  
PAL-encoded contents are converted to NTSC output. Blu-ray Discs encoded with 24Hz  
frame rate are converted to 60Hz frame rate if neither 1080p24 Output nor Source Direct  
output resolution is enabled.  
PAL – When playing PAL-encoded discs, no system conversion is performed. NTSC-  
encoded contents are converted to PAL output. Blu-ray Discs encoded with 24Hz frame  
rate are converted to 50Hz frame rate if neither 1080p24 Output nor Source Direct output  
resolution is enabled.  
Multi-system – No system conversion is performed. The output video system is the same  
as that encoded on the disc. Blu-ray Discs encoded with 24Hz frame rate are converted to  
60Hz frame rate if neither 1080p24 Output nor Source Direct output resolution is enabled.  
Requires a TV that supports both NTSC and PAL systems.  
NOTE  
Do not select “Multi-system” if your TV does not support both NTSC and PAL systems. The  
TV display may become a black screen upon inserting a disc encoded in a different system  
than your TV supports. Should this happen, you can press the OPEN button to eject the disc  
tray, and then use the Setup Menu to correct the “TV System” setting.  
5. Output Resolution: To choose the output resolution that best matches your television’s native  
resolution. For a detailed description on how to choose a proper output resolution, please refer  
to the Select the Best Output Resolution section on page 19 of this manual.  
6. 1080p24 Output: To set 1080p 24Hz output options. This option only applies to the HDMI  
output at 1080p resolution. Many Blu-ray Discs that originated from theatrical movies are  
encoded using 24Hz frame rate, the same number of frames per second as the original  
theatrical film. If the TV properly supports 1080p 24Hz, smoother motion can be achieved by  
enabling 1080p24 Output for such discs. The available options are:  
Auto – Video encoded in 24Hz frame rate will be output as 1080p 24Hz if the TV informs  
the player that it can support the 1080p24 signal.  
On – Video encoded in 24Hz frame rate will be output as 1080p 24Hz without regard to  
whether the TV can support the 1080p24 signal or not. This is useful if the TV can actually  
support 1080p24 but does not properly state its capability. Please note that if the TV  
cannot support 1080p24, selecting this option will result in no video.  
Off (default) – Video encoded in 24Hz frame rate will be converted to 60Hz (NTSC) or  
50Hz (PAL)  
7. Color Space: To select the color space for the HDMI output. The available options are:  
Auto (Recommended) – The player checks with the display device to automatically  
determine what color space to use. If the display device supports YCbCr 4:4:4, then it will  
be used to avoid extra color space conversion.  
RGB Video Level – The HDMI output uses RGB color space and normal signal range  
suitable for video displays. Video signal level below reference black or above reference  
white in the original content is preserved without clipping or alteration.  
YCbCr 4:4:4 – The HDMI output uses YCbCr 4:4:4 color space.  
47  
 
 
S E T U P M E N U O P T I O N S  
YCbCr 4:2:2 – The HDMI output uses YCbCr 4:2:2 color space. Generally this is the color  
space that is closest to the color space encoded on the discs. (All discs are encoded in  
YCbCr 4:2:0 color space, and the video decoder decodes it into YCbCr 4:2:2.)  
8. HDMI Deep Color: Deep Color is an OPTION for some TVs or projectors that feature HDMI  
v1.3 inputs. Normally, each pixel of the video image is transmitted using 24-bit data (8-bit per  
channel for R, G, B or Y, Cb, Cr). If Deep Color is supported, each pixel of the video image can  
be transmitted using 30-bit (10-bit per channel) or 36-bit (12-bit per channel) data. The  
increased bit depth should result in smoother color transitions and better gradients. The  
available options are:  
30 Bits – Use the 30-bit per pixel Deep Color mode.  
36 Bits – Use the 36-bit per pixel Deep Color mode.  
Off (default) – Do not use Deep Color.  
NOTE  
Since the Deep Color feature is OPTIONAL and may not be supported by all TVs, enabling  
Deep Color while connected to a TV without this feature may result in no effect or no video.  
At this time, no disc is encoded with Deep Color. Enabling Deep Color will not magically  
make colors richer, but will help preserve the maximum precision as a result of video  
processing and picture control adjustment.  
9. Display Options: To configure the options for displaying on-screen information. The following  
display options are available:  
Subtitle Shift – To set the display position for subtitles. When the “Subtitle Shift” is set at 0  
(default), subtitles are displayed at the original position as specified on the disc. When it is  
set at a value between 1 and 5, subtitles are shifted up. When it is set at a value between -  
1 and -5, subtitles are shifted down. This feature is helpful to customers using a 2.35:1  
“Constant Image Height” video projection system. Subtitles can be shifted to the active  
video area so they do not get cut off.  
OSD Position – To set the display position for on-screen display (OSD). When the “OSD  
Position” is set at 0, OSD is shown at the top and bottom of the video screen. When it is set  
at a value between 1 and 5, OSD is shifted towards the vertical center line of the video  
screen. Similar to the subtitle shift setting above, the “OSD Position” feature is helpful to  
customers using a 2.35:1 “Constant Image Height” video projection system.  
OSD Mode – To select how long the on-screen display information, such as elapsed or  
remaining time, stays on the TV screen. The available options are:  
Normal – On-screen display information stays on the TV screen until the user cancels  
it.  
Silent – On-screen display information shows on the TV screen for a few seconds and  
then disappears. The front panel display still maintains the selected display  
information.  
Remaining – On-screen display information stays on the TV screen until the user  
cancels it. By default display remaining time instead of elapsed time.  
Angle Mark (on/off) – To turn on/off the display of an angle mark when a DVD or Blu-ray  
Disc with multiple available angles is played. Keeping the angle mark off avoids distraction  
from normal movie watching.  
48  
 
S E T U P M E N U O P T I O N S  
PIP Mark (on/off) – To turn on/off the display of a Picture-in-Picture mark when a Blu-ray  
Disc with secondary video is played. Keeping the PIP mark off avoids distraction from  
normal movie watching.  
SAP Mark (on/off) – To turn on/off the display of a Secondary Audio Program mark when a  
Blu-ray Disc with secondary video and audio is played. Keeping the SAP mark off avoids  
distraction from normal movie watching.  
Screen Saver – To turn on/off the screen saver function. The screen saver is designed to  
minimize burn-in concerns for plasma and CRT display devices. The available options are:  
On – After about 3 minutes of inactivity, the player will show an animated OPPO logo  
moving on a black background. This allows most areas of the screen to rest and gives  
all areas an equal opportunity to refresh.  
Off – The screen saver will not be activated. Use this option if your TV does not have a  
burn-in issue.  
Energy Saver – Video output will be turned off after 3 minutes of inactivity. Many  
projectors and LCD TVs will go into a standby or sleep mode and turn off their  
projection lamp or LCD backlight lamp, thus saving energy and prolonging the lamp life.  
When you press any button on the OPPO remote control or the player’s front panel, the  
screen saver will be cancelled and video output will be restored. If your TV is already in  
standby or sleep mode, you may need to wake up the TV by pressing a button on its  
remote or control panel.  
Picture Adjustment  
Picture Adjustment is a special section of the Video Setup menu. It allows you to fine tune many picture  
control parameters in order to achieve the optimal picture quality and visual result. To use Picture Adjustment,  
press the SETUP button on the remote control to enter the player’s Setup Menu, and then choose “Video  
Setup” – “Picture Adjustment”. The Setup Menu will be replaced by the Picture Adjustment menu:

To exit the Picture Adjustment menu and return to the Setup Menu, either select “Exit” or press the  
RETURN button.  
The following picture adjustment controls are available:  
1. Brightness: To adjust the brightness (black level) of the video output.  
2. Contrast: To adjust the contrast (white level) of the video output.  
NOTE  
Proper brightness and contrast settings are necessary for a quality video output. If you do not  
have the correct black and white levels, your images can appear washed out or can lose  
detail in shadows when watching darker scenes. Televisions have brightness (black level)  
and contrast (white level) controls; however it may require a combination of tweaking both the  
player and your television to get the optimal result. We recommend using a calibration disc  
such as the Spears & Munsil™ High Definition Benchmark Blu-ray Edition or Digital Video  
Essentials HD Basics as aids for adjusting. First adjust the television’s picture controls for  
the best possible picture. Once that is done, try changing the player’s settings to further  
refine the picture to the optimal result.  
3. Hue: To adjust the hue (tint) of the video output.  
4. Saturation: To adjust the saturation (color intensity level) of the video output.  
5. Sharpness: To set the sharpness of video output. The Sharpness level can be set between 0  
and +2. The default is level 0. The higher the level, the sharper the video details are. However  
too high a sharpness level may cause white line etching around objects.

1. Secondary Audio: To set the Secondary Audio Program mixing option. Some Blu-ray Discs  
contain a secondary audio and video program, such as the director’s commentary. Some Blu-  
ray Discs have a sound effect when you make menu choices. This Setup Menu item allows you  
to decide whether to mix the Secondary Audio Program and menu clicking sound into the  
primary audio. The options are:  
On – The Secondary Audio Program and menu clicking sound are mixed into the primary  
audio. Usually this will cause the primary audio volume to be slightly reduced. High  
resolution primary audio will be converted to a normal resolution in order to mix with the  
secondary audio.  
Off – The Secondary Audio Program and menu clicking sound are not mixed into the  
primary audio and you cannot hear the secondary audio or menu clicking sound. This  
setting preserves the highest possible audio quality for the primary audio.  
2. HDMI Audio: To select digital audio output format from the HDMI port. The options are:  
LPCM – Digital audio output via HDMI will be multi-channel Linear PCM format. When this  
option is selected, compressed audio bit streams will be decoded by the player. This  
setting is recommended when connecting the HDMI output directly to a TV or to a receiver  
without advanced audio decoding capabilities.  
Bitstream – Digital audio output via HDMI will be in bitstream format. This option is  
recommended when connecting the HDMI output to an A/V receiver or processor that  
supports advanced audio decoding, such as Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio.  
Off – No digital audio output via HDMI.  
NOTE  
If you use HDMI to connect audio to an HDMI A/V receiver or audio processor, it is important  
that you choose 720p or higher HDMI output resolution when playing high resolution audio  
content (DVD-Audio, SACD, Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio). According to the  
HDMI specification, the bandwidth available for audio is proportional to the total bandwidth  
used by video. At 480p/576p resolution, the HDMI specification can only support 2 channels

S E T U P M E N U O P T I O N S  
of audio with high sample rate (up to 192kHz), or 8 channels of audio with standard sample  
rate (up to 48kHz). If you play high resolution audio content at the 480p/576p resolution, you  
may get reduced audio resolution, incomplete audio channels, or even no audio/video output  
at all. Choosing a higher output resolution such as 720p or above allows enough bandwidth  
for all high sample rate audio channels.  
3. SACD Output: To select audio output format for SACD. The options are:  
PCM – SACD Direct Stream Digital (DSD) data is converted into multi-channel, high-  
resolution PCM data. The converted PCM data is then output through HDMI or the internal  
DAC (Digital to Analog Converter) for the analog audio output ports. If you use a receiver  
that supports HDMI v1.1 to listen to SACD, or if you use the analog 7.1CH/5.1CH audio  
output from the player, please select this option. You may also want to select this option if  
you prefer the sound quality of the DSD-to-PCM conversion.  
DSD – SACD DSD data is output over HDMI without any conversion. If you use a receiver  
that supports HDMI v1.2a with DSD over HDMI, you may select this option. Please note  
that when DSD is chosen, audio from SACD playback is only available through the HDMI  
output. There is no audio signal from the analog 7.1CH/5.1CH audio output terminals.  
4. HDCD Decoding: To set the audio decoding option for HDCD (High Definition Compatible  
Digital) discs. The options are:  
On – HDCD is decoded by the player. User can enjoy expanded dynamic range and  
improved audio resolution.  
Off – HDCD is treated as regular CD. This is useful when the player is connected to an  
HDCD-capable A/V receiver via a digital audio output link (Coaxial, Optical, or HDMI) so the  
A/V receiver can perform HDCD decoding.  
5. Coaxial/Optical Output: To set the output format for the coaxial/optical digital audio output for  
use with Dolby Digital and DTS-compatible receivers. The options are:  
LPCM – Forces down-mixed 2-channel digital audio output. Choose this setting if your  
receiver/amplifier only supports stereo digital (PCM) audio.  
Bitstream – Passes audio as compressed bitstream format to the receiver/amplifier.  
Choose this setting if your receiver/amplifier is capable of decoding Dolby Digital and/or  
DTS.  
6. LPCM Rate Limit: To set the maximum Linear PCM output frequency for the coaxial/optical  
digital output. This menu item is intended to ensure that the audio output is compatible with  
equipment that cannot support high sample rates. It sets an upper limit to decide whether the  
player shall down-sample audio. The player does not up-sample audio to higher sample rates.  
The options are:  
48K – Supported by most equipment.  
96K – Allows a higher sampling rate and frequency response. It can result in better audio  
quality. Ensure that the receiver/amplifier can support it.  
192K – Allows the highest sampling rate and frequency response. It can result in the best  
audio quality. Ensure that the receiver/amplifier can support it.

Down Mix Mode  
Down mix is the process of converting multi-channel audio to a lesser number of channels. For  
example, converting a 5.1ch source to stereo or converting a 7.1ch source to 5.1ch. Down mixing  
allows the audio output from the player to match the exact number of speakers available in your home  
theater.  
The current down mix mode is displayed in the lower right corner of the speaker placement illustration.  
To change the audio down mix setting, press the ENTER button while the cursor is over the “Down Mix”  
option. The following down mix modes are available:

LT/RT – Left Total/Right Total. The center and surround channels are mixed into the two front  
channels according to the LT/RT matrix. A receiver that supports Dolby Pro Logic or similar  
surround audio decoding technology will decode the two-channel audio into surround audio.  
Stereo - This mode down-mixes multi-channel audio to 2-channel stereo output. For original  
stereo content the output will not change. For original multi-channel content the surround and  
center channels will be mixed with the left and right front channels. Recommended for use with  
TV sets or stereo receiver/amplifiers.  
5.1Ch – This mode enables 5.1ch decoded audio output. The number of actual output  
channels depends on the disc. If the source content has more channels, the surround back  
channels will be mixed into the surround channels.  
7.1Ch – This mode enables 7.1ch decoded audio output. The number of actual output  
channels depends on the disc. For 6.1ch contents, the left and right surround back speakers  
will both output the same surround back audio channel.  
Speaker Settings  
For each speaker in the home theater system, you can set its size, distance and trim level. To configure  
a speaker, move the cursor to highlight the speaker and press the ENTER button. The Speaker

The following speaker parameters can be configured:  
1. Size: The speaker size parameter sets bass filtering control for the speakers. The bass crossover  
frequency is fixed at 80Hz. The options are:  
Large – Bass frequencies are passed to the speakers.  
Small – Bass frequencies are not passed to the speakers to reduce possible distortion. If the  
subwoofer is available, bass frequencies are redirected to the subwoofer. If there is no  
subwoofer, bass frequencies are discarded.  
On (for subwoofer only) – Specify that a subwoofer is available.  
Off – Speaker for the corresponding position does not exist. Audio for the missing speaker is  
redirected to other speakers or discarded if redirection is not possible.  
NOTE  
The front, surround and surround back speakers are configured as pairs. Changes to the  
size of one speaker will automatically change the other speaker of the pair.  
2. Distance: The speaker distance parameters sets delay control for the corresponding audio channel.  
The delay is to compensate for the audio propagation time difference caused by the placement of  
speakers.  
Speaker distance compensation is not required if the A/V receiver has the capability to adjust  
channel delay and compensate for speaker distance differences. However, if your receiver does  
not have such functions (most receivers do not offer these functions for their multi-channel analog  
input), you may adjust them through the player. Speaker distance delay is only applied if the player  
is decoding multi-channel audio. If you use bitstream audio output to your A/V receiver, the  
bitstream audio is not adjusted for speaker distance delay.  
Since the delay is calculated based on the distance difference from each speaker to the listener’s  
position, it is important to set the distance for the front speakers first and then the other speakers.  
Anytime you change the distance of the front speakers, the distance of the other speakers will be  
automatically adjusted to maintain the same distance difference.

For example, in the above diagram, measure the distance (in feet) from the primary listening  
position to the Front Left or Front Right Speaker. Your Front Right and Left speakers should  
measure the same distance. If they do not, please adjust them if possible. Enter the distance of the  
Front Speakers (n in the above picture) into the “Speaker Configuration” menu.  
Next, measure the distance (in feet) from center speaker (o) to the listening position. Move the  
cursor to highlight the Center speaker in the Channel Delay setup page, and enter the distance (as  
close as possible) in feet. Repeat for each speaker in the system (Center, Surround Left, Surround  
Right, Surround Back Left, Surround Back Right and Subwoofer) as available. The player will insert  
appropriate delay to the center, subwoofer and surround channels to make sure sound waves from  
different speakers arrive at the listener at the same time.

Distance between the surround speakers and the listener must be shorter than or equal to that  
between the front speakers and the listener.  
In case the channel delay settings cannot match your speaker configuration, please set all  
distances to the same and use your receiver/amplifier to set the channel delay.  
NOTE  
The front, surround and surround back speakers are configured as pairs. Changes to the  
distance of one speaker will automatically change the other speaker of the pair.  
3. Trim Level: The speaker trim level parameters sets the volume of each individual channel.  
Channel trim is generally not required since most A/V receivers have the capability to adjust  
channel trim and compensate for speaker sensitivity differences. However, if your receiver does not  
have such functions (many receivers do not support channel trim for their multi-channel analog  
inputs), you may adjust channel trim through the player. For most accurate results, it is  
recommended that you use test tones from a calibration disc, such as AIX Records Audio  
Calibration Disc and HD Music Sampler or Digital Video Essentials HD Basics, and a SPL (Sound  
Pressure Level) meter. The trim level can be set to +/- 10dB in 0.5dB increments.  
Other Audio Processing Settings  
In addition to Speaker Configuration, Dynamic Range Control is another audio processing setting  
that can be configured:  
1. Dynamic Range Control: To set the Dynamic Range Compression (DRC). DRC can smooth out  
the sonic peaks and valleys common with wide-range digital audio. Enabling DRC may make low  
level audio more audible during low-level listening. Turning off DRC restores the sonic energy  
present in the original recording. The available options are:  
Auto – Play at the dynamic range specified by the disc. This option applies to Blu-ray  
Discs only. For other disc types no dynamic range compression is applied.  
On – Turn on dynamic range compression.  
Off – Turn off dynamic range compression.

1. Firmware Information: To display the currently installed firmware version.  
2. Firmware Upgrade: To upgrade the player’s firmware. This operation is only available when the  
playback is completely stopped or when there is no disc loaded.  
The firmware is the system software that controls the features and functions of the player. Since  
the Blu-ray Disc specifications are new and evolving, it is possible that a Blu-ray disc manufactured  
after the player was manufactured uses certain new features of the Blu-ray Disc specifications. To  
ensure the best possible viewing experience, the player may need a firmware update from time to  
time. Please visit the OPPO Digital web site www.oppodigital.com to check for firmware updates  
and instructions on installing the updates.  
There are three ways to upgrade the player’s firmware. The options are:  
Via Disc – You may requests a firmware upgrade disc from OPPO Digital or download a  
disc image from the OPPO Digital web site and burn an upgrade disc. Please follow the  
instructions that come with the upgrade disc.  
Via USB – You may download the firmware files from the OPPO Digital web site to a USB  
drive and then use the USB drive to upgrade the player. Please follow the instructions on  
the firmware download web page.  
Via Network – If the player has a working Internet connection (see page 17 and 63), you  
may upgrade the player directly over the Internet. Please follow the instructions on your TV  
screen.  
3. Firmware Notification: To set whether the player should automatically check if new firmware  
versions are available on the Internet server and notify the user about new firmware. The options  
are:  
On – Check for new firmware version automatically and notify the user about new firmware.  
Requires a working network connection.  
Off – Do not check for new firmware version automatically.  
4. Remote Control Code: The OPPO BDP-80 Blu-ray Disc Player can respond to one of 4 sets of  
remote control codes. The default is “Code 1”. If you have other OPPO products placed close to the  
61  
 
 
S E T U P M E N U O P T I O N S  
BDP-80, the other products may respond to the BDP-80 remote control. In this case you can select  
a different remote code to avoid conflicts. The available codes are:  
Code 1 – OPPO disc player remote code set 1. This is the default remote code.  
Code 2 – OPPO disc player remote code set 2. Use this code if you have other OPPO  
products placed close to the BDP-80.  
Code 3 – OPPO disc player remote code set 3. Use this code if you have other OPPO  
products placed close to the BDP-80.  
Alt. Code – Alternative remote code. The alternative remote control code enables  
users to program their universal remote controls that come with TV, projector or A/V  
receiver to operate the OPPO player. If the universal remote control has a DVD player  
control function, please program it with the code for TOSHIBA, PHILIPS, MAGNAVOX,  
MARANTZ or ZENITH DVD players. Since each brand of remote control may have  
several sets of codes, you may need to try several times using different codes to find a  
working code.  
If you have selected a new remote code, you must set the remote control handset to use the same code.  
Please refer to the Setting the Remote Code section on page 9 of this manual for details. If you have  
selected “Alt. Code”, the supplied handset will not operate the player, and you must use a universal  
remote control with the properly configured code set.  
5. HDMI CEC: To set HDMI Consumer Electronics Control (CEC) mode. CEC is an optional HDMI  
feature that enables convenient remote control and automatic setup of consumer electronics over  
the HDMI connection. The remote control function allows you to use a single remote handset to  
operate multiple devices connected via HDMI. For example, you may use the TV remote to control  
playback of the Blu-ray Disc player. The automatic setup function can automatically turn on the TV  
and change to the proper input when you start playing a disc in the Blu-ray Disc player. It can also  
turn off the player automatically when you turn off the TV. The implementation and compatibility of  
this feature varies by device manufacturer. Each may only implement part of the features or add  
their own proprietary functions. The manufacturer-specific implementation of the HDMI CEC  
function is often given a proprietary name of “…Link” or “…Sync”. The OPPO BDP-80 Blu-ray Disc  
Player provides three modes for the HDMI CEC function:  
On – HDMI CEC is enabled. Use this mode if your other devices are compatible with the  
player.  
Limited – HDMI CEC is enabled but the BDP-80 will only respond to playback control  
commands. It will not respond or issue power on/off and input selection commands. Use  
this mode if you do not want the automatic setup function to turn on/off your devices.

Storage Device – To select which storage device should be used as the persistent storage.  
The OPPO BDP-80 is equipped with 1GB of internal flash memory. There are two USB ports  
on the player that can accept a USB drive to be used as the persistent storage. The choices  
are:  
Internal Flash – Use the internal flash memory for persistent storage.  
USB Drive – Use a USB drive for persistent storage. To meet the specification for BD-Live,  
a USB drive of 1GB or larger is required. A USB hard disk is not recommended.  
NOTE  
The new storage device choice becomes effective only after the player is restarted. Please  
make sure that you turn off the player and then turn it back on after changing the “Storage  
Device” option.  
Total Space – To display the total space of the persistent storage.  
Available Space – To display the currently available space of the persistent storage. If the  
available space becomes too low, some Blu-ray Discs may not play properly.  
Erase BD-Video Data – To erase the BD-Video data from the persistent storage.  
8. Reset Factory Defaults: To reset all settings to the factory default value. The remote control code,  
parental control password and ratings will not be reset. This operation is only available when the

1. IP Configuration: To determine how the player obtains its IP address. The available options are:  
Auto (DHCP) - The player automatically obtains its IP address information using DHCP  
(Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol). This is the default setting. In most cases,  
automatic IP configuration can be used.  
Manual – Manually enter the numeric IP address information. Set the IP configuration  
manually only when the router has no DHCP server functions or when the router’s

S E T U P M E N U O P T I O N S  
DHCP server function is disabled. For more information on how to manually configure  
the Internet connection and what values to use, please consult your broadband  
router/modem instruction manuals or call your Internet service provider.  
2. IP Address: The Internet Protocol address of the player. When “IP Configuration” is set to “Auto  
(DHCP)”, the value displayed here is obtained using DHCP and cannot be changed.  
3. Subnet Mask: Each IP address has an associated subnet mask. It is used by the player to decide  
whether to route network traffic through the router or directly to another device on the same  
network. When “IP Configuration” is set to “Auto (DHCP)”, the value displayed here is obtained  
using DHCP and cannot be changed.  
4. Gateway: The IP address of the router. It is also called “default gateway” or “default router”. When  
“IP Configuration” is set to “Auto (DHCP)”, the value displayed here is obtained using DHCP and  
cannot be changed.  
5. DNS 1: The IP address of the first (primary) DNS (Domain Name System) server. DNS is the  
mechanism to translate human-readable addresses (such as www.oppodigital.com) to numeric IP  
addresses. When “IP Configuration” is set to “Auto (DHCP)”, the value displayed here is obtained  
using DHCP and cannot be changed.  
6. DNS 2: The IP address of the second (secondary) DNS server. When “IP Configuration” is set to  
“Auto (DHCP)”, the value displayed here is obtained using DHCP and cannot be changed.  
7. BD-Live Network Access: To restrict BD-Live content access. The available options are:  
On – BD-Live access is permitted.  
Limited – BD-Live access is permitted only for contents that have a valid content owner  
certificate. Internet access is prohibited if the BD-Live contents do not have a  
certificate. This option ensures that you are accessing only authentic content, although  
it may block your access to smaller independent content providers.  
Off – BD-Live access is prohibited.  
8. Connection Test: To test the Internet connection. It is recommended that you test the connection  
when you initially connect the player to the Internet, or whenever changes to “IP Configuration” and  
other network parameters are made.  
9. MAC Address: This read-only field displays the MAC (Media Access Control) address of the player.  
Each player has a unique MAC address. It is used by networking devices (such as a router or PC)  
on the same network to provide identification and facilitate communication.
