suggest good amp in rs 40000 range

Hi Audiodelic,
Thanks a lot for your suggestion.
You seems to be an expert on OPPO.
I just burn a CD and after inserting back it is showing file name as 983.
So it appears I got it right.
Now i will do rest of the procedure tomorrow as it is late in the night here.
Actually I bought my 983 from Bangkok where I am living also. I have a home in Delhi and I travel 3 or 4 times in a year,
. I took my OPPO to the shop who is my friend also from whom I had bought this unit and there it was working OK with other LCD players like Sony Samsung etc. So he told me it could be a HDMI problem with my Philips LCD.
Now I will try your recommendation and let you know.
Where are u from. Delhi or Bombay or Banglore? See I could benefit straight away by joining this forum.
Thanks and regards

Hi Audiodelic,
luckily there are no power cuts here like in Delhi.
So that way i am safe while upgrading the software
SKR

Pls let me know the results in detail.
Any kind of improvements you noticed...

I'm from Hyderabad, Andhra Pradesh but im in canada presently at university.
P.S - I have a house in delhi and there are power cuts sometimes.
Or maybe times have changed last i was there was year back.

I hope you do know if on the Oppo 983H your not using HDMI then your not using the advanced anchor bay chipset at all, that only works via HDMI.
If the firmware upgrade doesnt work i suggest you sell it and buy another player that would work for your situation. Maybe the Oppo 981HD.

Hi Audiodelic,
Nice to know you are from Hyderabad as I also lived there for 6 years and love that city and biryani.
In my OPPO 983 the upgrade software failed. It is showing "CHECKSUM FAIL"
So do you think there is a problem in my 983 or is it a software issue.
Since the dealer is my friend he will change and give me another piece of 983 but I hope i don't get same problem again. And i don't want to bother my dealer friend in case problem is not with the player.
as an alternative i can take this player to india as I have to buy a new LCD TV there. May be it will work with newer 1.3 LCD TV's.
You mean the Anchor Bay chipset does not work even with COMPONENT connection.
Do let me know. Where are u located in Canada and are u a student or a faculty.
From your forum name it appears you are a dedicated audiophile.
Thanks and regards

Consult this link and recheck if you did anything wrong and try again(alternatively with a usb drive if you have one) :-

Try burning with this software:-
We recommend the easy to use BurnAtOnce software, available for downloading at burnatonce.net. You can use it to burn the firmware CD from the .iso file. After you install and start the BurnAtOnce software, do the following:

1. Click on "File".
2. Choose "Load New Image..."
3. Choose the saved firmware image file from your computer.
4. Load a blank CD-R disc and click the big "Write" button.
5. Verify that the burned CD has a "983.bin" file.

The file name should be 983.bin

OPPO DV-983H DVD Player Firmware Update

If you read the release notes it says they have addressed a fix for hdmi audio/video drop out issues.
Which im guessing is the problem in your case.

If it again gives you an error email oppo about it, theyre very helpful.
service@oppodigital.com.

Hi Audiodelic,
Thanks for your advice again. But some how I could not complete the process may be due to lack of computer knowledge .
I could down load the software and go till point no.2 "LOAD NEW IMAGE", and a new window opens asking firmware image file name.

But there after i could not proceed. Where do I get this file name. I typed 983 and few others but could not get success.
If u don't mind can you please explain me the steps from here. May be you can try it yourself and let me know.
What do i type in this window and do i need to close it before going to point No.4 to load a CD and click on WRITE.
Sorry for bothering you again.
Thanks
SKR

Ok Try This step by step

1.Download the cd image file from here.
http://www.oppodigital.com/dv983h/do...3H-06-0430.iso

2.Download Imageburn from here.
FileForum | ImgBurn

3. Install Image Burn. Once installed run it. Choose option burn image to cd.
Choose the oppo file you downloaded in step 1 as the image file.

# Be sure to burn the CD as an ISO image file, not a data file. The CD should contain a 983.BIN file if you burned it successfully.

# Turn on your TV display and the OPPO player. Open the player tray and insert the firmware CD, and then close the tray.

# As soon as the CD is loaded, you will see "Press Play To Start" on your TV display. Press the PLAY key on the remote or the player once. The TV display shows "File Copying" and then "UPGRADING"

# In about 8 seconds, the CD will be ejected. Remove the CD quickly; DO NOT DO ANYTHING ELSE. What follows is the process when the player will reboot itself.

# DO NOT PRESS ANY BUTTONS NOR ATTEMPT TO CLOSE THE TRAY NOR UNPLUG THE POWER DURING THE REMAINING UPGRADE PROCESS.

# After approximately 1 - 2 minutes, the player reboots itself and closes the tray automatically to complete the process. The update process is completed when the front panel of the DVD player shows "No Disc".

# Press the "OSD" button on the remote control to verify the new firmware version.

# The new firmware may affect your HDMI output resolution and setup menu settings. To ensure you have the correct settings, turn off and then turn on the player. Press the HDMI button on the remote control to set the desired output resolution. Adjust the setup menu settings if necessary.

# Congratulations! You have just completed the firmware upgrade.

Hi Audiodelic,
Thanks for your efforts.
I was finally able to install the upgraded software.Let me use it for a few days and see how it works. IS THE PICTURE QUALITY OF SAME ANCHOR BAY LEVEL OR NOT.

The main problem was that my OPPO was not able to take the upgrade software from the CD. I tried copying CD 3 times and played the 3 CD's as directed but every time it failed. So i thought there was some copying or download problem.
But finally I tried the process using Thumb drive and was able to load the new software. Immediately I tried a DVD movie which started working OK and I was getting both audio and vedio. OPPO HAS ANOTHER PROCESS FOR USING THUMB DRIVE UPGRADE.
Thanks a lot
Regards
