Of course, the really funny thing is that the best player was probably the Popcorn pero syempre may daya yun kasi 720p material. 

napabili tuloy ako ng popcorn because of this EB/Shoot out    bad influence talaga tong si sir mark

@Moks
Yes, I am also very curious about the Toshiba Super upconverting DVD players.
I'm holding out on the 980 for now. 

@Saxman
I'm not too into the popcorn hour honestly.
It's impressive Yes, Sound was killer.

However, I'm the type who wants to hold something tangible.
I like looking at my DVD's

bro juancho. i think sd and hd ripped contents being played from hard disks will be the wave of the future. i like you want to hold on to something tangible. but i think i might get myself one too in the near future if only to watch hd rips of tv series. which can be a clutter in terms of number of discs season per season. movies for me (as of now) will always be disc-based.

Yes, I share your sentiments.
Even though it is hard to accept, HD rips will become more common place in the future.

After the shoot-out, I am now actually seriously considering the Oppo 980

I agree with your opinion. The shoot-out result just confirm that Oppo980 is to be considered in getting new DVD player.

[otepsy]

saan po ba makakabili ng oppo980 and how much? thanks

[audiojunkie]

saan po ba makakabili ng oppo980 and how much? thanks

sir online; either oppodigital.com or amazon.com

[juanch]

otepsy, bili ka ng Oppo 980
It's worth it. I think it costs only $169.95

[frootloops]

bakit nga ba walang nagbebenta dito nyan? or meron na?

[ert]

sayang wasn't able to come sa shootout.. 

[otepsy]

wala pa ba dito sa phils na nagbbenta nyan? sayang naman

[Moks007]

I read somewhere here a shop in rockwell sells these units ata, could be the one near the theater. By the way anybody know if they have these in Hong Kong. If yes, which shop sell these units. Thanks

[milken]

Nice, very interested.    Pabalita kung san available locally or in HK.  Mura na plane fare ngayon. 

[leomar]

Hehe. But I don't think you'll regret it. Post mo lang feedback mo. 

PCH is great piece of equipment  I can't anything negative to it, simply amazing

ot but have to be said, seeing it in action, i believe it is a great piece of av equipment. reserved a unit from ert. out of stock sya ngayon. i think a lot of pdvders are starting to hear or read about this small but terrible gear.

Sayang. Sana nakita at narinig mo PCH. One of the stars. Hehe.

Any major factor to consider in regards to the difference of  980 and 983?  TIA

I think the major difference is the chipset used for deinterlacing/scaling. 983 has more advanced chipset. That's why nanalo sya sa shoot-out.

Having said that, the 980 is also pretty good, or at least better than the Pio 600. On a smaller screen, say 42" and below, I think it will be very hard to tell the difference between the 2.

Paul Chin should chime in since he has the 983. Also the other guys who attended the shoot-out

[ericgnu]

sir streetsmart,

would you say na pareho na halos ang pq ng 980 and dv600 on a 32" lcd (panny)?

I have a lx77 32" and am doing a lot of research... whether getting the 980 would be worth it.. or is the dv600 good enough na?

your comment much appreciated.

How about for pj with 70-90" screen? Would you still suggest the 980 or better get the 983 instead? Many thanks sir mark.

If your screen is 32", I don't think it will be worth it to get a 980. Ok na ang Pio 600.

For that size of screen, I would say that the 983 is worth it.

Agree with Mark. For display size 50" and below, OPPO 980 should be sufficient to meet your requirement esp after considering the price of OPPO 983 which is overkill IMO.

For those who have big display screen or own projectors then I'd say go for OPPO 983 if there's no objection on the price.

hi. to Oppo users/experts.... sorry is dumb question but i just got my Oppo 981.  is it ideal to connect the HDMI connection directly to the TV or receiver? i used a Pioneer LX-50 receiver?     was thinking if the upconverting capabilities of the receiver would conflict with the Oppo.

thanks!

It's normally not recommended to have dual upconverting, i.e., upconverting at the player and then upconverting at the receiver. Therefore, connecting the 981 directly to the TV is probably correct because of the advanced upconverting capability of the player.

If you want to experiment, try to send a raw video signal (480i) from the 981 to your receiver. Activate the upconverting feature of the receiver and connect it to the TV.

You can choose which one you prefer. You will likely prefer the 981 direct to the TV.
