I also have an OPPO BDP-93 and it is not without issues. I had to send back under warranty the original one.It would stick on the "loading" step and, another issue, it would start freezing after playing for close to two hours. OPPO replaced it but even the replacing unit will once in awhile stick on the "loading" step.It is very annoying because when it happens the unit does not respond to command from the remote; the only way to solve the issue is to turn it off and on again. I tought the freezing issue was heat related so I moved the unit by itself on a separate shelf with plenty of space. This freezing issue is not totally resolved. When it happens again the unit does not espond to the remote control. I have to open the drawer remove the disc and turn off the unit. Then after powering on again, I re-insert the disc and it plays fine.

OPPO told me that the original player had no fault found according to their tests and that there was a long hair which could have been the cause.
