In Topic: Oppo Blu-Ray Player Bdp83 Firmware Updates

2011-07-01 14:59:55

Hi,

Sorry I forgot to update the forum with what happened.

The firmware available at www.oppodigital.com is for the US players and is not comptible with the Thai version; i.e. players that have the Thai firmware that includes the letter T e.g. BDP83T-09-0424.
When attemping to upgrade using the US firmware, it appears that the update is successful BUT when checking the firmware version, the old (pre-upgrade) versions are still present.

I tried contacting www.oppodigital.com but they were unhelpful.


You will need to to contact the reseller from whom you bought the player from. They will be able to give you a newer firmware which is designed for the Thai (T) players.

OPPO Digital, Inc only supports the North American player, so we do not have access to this firmware.


Best Regards,

I did eventually take the player to the room where my pc and router are situated. I then re-tried the firmware upgrade but it failed with a 'Cannot connect to server' error. Note that blu-ray online content worked so the problem was not being able to connect to oppo.

Since I bought the player at Paragon, I didn't have much faith in getting any support there so I looked around the 'net.

In the end I found thewww.htg2.net forum in google and sent an email to the admin of the forum to request a message to be posted (English and Thai translation via google) since registration seemed to require a Thai id.

It seemed that quite a few people were experiencing the same problems I had, i.e. the Thai oppo website is always down (I just checked and it is STILL down - Oppo-bluray.com/) meaning that it is impossible to get the firmware updates.

Someone posted the latest firmware which seems to have come from Soken (Thailand).

ianwrd4 - I see that you mention the BDP-93 and I am interested in getting either a BDP-93 or BDP-95 in the future, I wonder if you bought your's in Thailand and if it has Thai firmware because I am concerned with the lack of support from Oppo if I buy in Thailand again. The Thai website always seems to be down so no firmware updates are available.

Thanks

I and most of the extended family have used  Yanhee Hospital , they may not be the cheapest but they are friendly and have specialists that deal with braces.

iphone 4 uses micro sim cards that are smaller than the normal sim cards so there's a good chance that your current sim card won't work ....

In Topic: Looking For Cd Single Cases (J-Card Type)

2010-07-05 09:37:56

Thanks for the replies but the cases at Tesco/ Lotus and also the shops at Fortune Town are not the same cases I am looking for. The ones they sell are the Ultra slim cases which are 5.2mm thick and case front does wrap around with a spine therefore the J card inserts will not fit ....    I've not got around to Pantip yet.

This website gives a good description of the different types of slim cd case:   slim cd cases

I am only looking for the 7mm maxi slim cases that a J card insert will fit into. i.e. the front is a in the shape of a letter J

Cheers
