Yep. So whatever problems you are having, should not be what I’m dealing with.

And to be clear, this audio drop out thing I'm talking about is not "just" Atmos. It's this new “seamless branching” thing. I have had audio drop outs during intense (re: action) sound tracks on every single Atmos blueray disk so far. If I change the audio output on my bdp-93 to LPCM, from Bitstream (or auto), the drop outs do not occur. I called Oppo and they confirmed this, but it wouldn’t be a bad idea to call Oppo yourself and make sure your issues are not what I’m dealing with. Actually, it would be very helpful to know your drop outs are being caused by “seamless branching”, and not something else, so I don’t waste another $500 on a player that has the same limitations as the player I have now.
