Connecting to the Internet

The OPPO BDP-93 Blu-Ray Disc Player has significantly improved its internet exploration capabilities compared to its predecessors. Currently it supports both Netflix and Blockbuster for instant online media streaming, as well as in-home network media sharing via My Network which is functionally equivalent to DLNA. Additional network applications may be added with future firmware updates.

The BDP-93 also supports the BD-Live feature offered on some Blu-ray Disc titles. BD-Live offers extra downloadable content and additional online interactive programs. Content available on BD-Live vary by discs and studios, and may include additional subtitles, commentaries, movie trailers, games, or online chat.

Connecting the player to the Internet will also allow the player to obtain firmware updates via the Internet. (See pages 4 and 72 for more information regarding firmware updates.)

In order to utilize the BD-Live feature or update firmware via the Internet, the player needs to be connected to a broadband Internet connection. It is not necessary to connect to the Internet if you do not intend to use the network streaming, BD-Live and online firmware updating functionality.

The BDP-93 provides two network connection methods: through Ethernet cable or through the external wireless adaptor included with the player. For the fastest and most stable network connection, we recommend using Ethernet cable whenever it is possible.
