My understanding is that the Oppo can send the same signals to component or DVI outputs, but the output quality is extraordinary on DVI and only average on component out.

I have a new OPPO OPDV971H player. It has DVI output as well as component, S-video and "regular" output.

On page 20 it talks about the DVI output of 480P, 720P or 1080I. It can/ will output any one of the three.

Yes.

The Oppo does progressive/upconverting on the DVI output only. For the analog component/s-video/composite output, it's 480i only.

I know this is a stupid question, but is there a DVI to componant adapter? Or, could that even work?

I'm sure there is something, but it's not a straight through passive connector. DVI is digital, and component is analog. So basically it would be an outboard D/A converter.

mdrew: don't think so. Previous post covers it pretty well.

OPPO supplied an additional HDMI to DVI cable at no additional cost.
