OPPO DV-983H Upconverting DVD Player

Posted by Sheila Franklin Categories: HDTV, Home Entertainment, Misc. Tech, Movies

OPPO dv-983h

Just in time for Father’s Day, has released another upconverting DVD player. The DV-983H produces even better details, color, and a picture closer to HD. Hook it up to your HDTV and turn standard DVDs into high-def 1080p. The player can also convert PAL to NTSC and is multi-level zoom capable. And for those music videos, the DV offers 7.1 channel audio with Dolby Digital Surround EX. Your dad will probably hand you the keys to his vacation home if you present him with this as a gift at a price of $399.99, which can be purchased online at the OPPO store.

By the way, we got a look at the OPPO 980H PL unit and were incredibly impressed with it and all its features. However, if you do not have an it will not upconvert your standard DVDs.

(Thanks, Noe)

I’d better get a bluray player to enjoy a “real” HD 1080p.  DVD can’t compete with bluray, even this device seems to be imitating the function of “good codec”?

I can see why someone would buy an upconverting DVD player if it was cheaper, because blu-ray players are quite expensive now.  But this one is the same cost as a blu-ray player, so why not go with the real HD instead of the pseudo-upconverted-HD!

OPPO makes great products. Think of this as the last standard up-converting players you will need until OPPO finally comes out with one of their own designed bluray boxes.
Their players will read just about any format too.
