Home audio & video: Is Oppo OPDV971H & Philips DVP5960/37 the same dvd player?
Is Oppo OPDV971H & Philips DVP5960/37 the same dvd player?
by jeroque - 9/9/06 9:39 AMIf you take a look at these 2 up-converting players their faceplate look the same and even their features. Both are also Divx player. The only difference is their digital cable output; Oppo has DVI while Philips uses HDMI. Are they made by one company but with different name badge? Any help on this?
Look at the Oppo 970HD

Not sure if Oppo makes the Phillips player. It could also be that Oppo and Phillips use another companies shell and they install their own electronics. If that's the case, I personally would go with Oppo. I own the 970HD and so far I am very happy with everything but the remote. The print on the remote is too tiny. I have a tough time seeing it in a dimmed room. I loved the remote on my Toshiba, but the Tosh was inferior on layer changes and had trouble playing some DVDs.
Optimal settings for 971.

Oppo settings

I need to spend more time analyzing the setups I have with my Video Essentials DVD, but in a quick initial setup, these settings are what I have.
