I don’t mean to be a party-pooper, or to post this ad nauseam and in other threads even though it clearly warrants it.
Nevertheless, the question (please allow some poetic license here) remains that if the Oppo UDP-205 can’t get it right when you tell it not to alter video and simply provide native/raw format, how could anyone expect it to do anything - audio or video - right when you ask it to *process* whatever it is you play back through it?
It is my view at this time (wasn't the case before the latest firmware) that *everything audio AND video* about the Oppo UDP-250 is "unfaithful". And we know what happens in that kind of marriage.
How can the Oppo be "trusted" to faithfully, accurately and correctly reproduce our cherished music when it cannot do same for video - its primary purpose?
Yes, they are investigating. Yes, they acknowledge (verbal and in writing) the issue.
Yes, people including me make mistakes, but I don't have months of beta testers and endless QA time and dollars to check every last detail. They do, and have not. BIG LET DOWN.
Even if they "fix" what was previously working (can not even be sure of that anymore), why should Oppo be trusted with any firmware? Regression testing is software 101. Obviously they don't do it.
Every owner of any Oppo gear should call, email, write, boy cot and basically use another product until they get *source direct* correct.
Thank you.
