Secondary audio already off.

Has latest version of firmware.

Man I hate to have to send it back. My only player. Bought through Amazon.

The guys at AVS say the 100 series Oppo players do not have this problem. For whatever that's worth......

That sucks. FWIW I have a PS4, bitstream Atmos soundtracks without issues.

Mine is a 103D. Isn't that the 100 series?

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.

I experienced another audio dropout yesterday, watching the 2nd half of Lawrence of Arabia. It was during a rather quiet scene. I hit the chapter back button, and audio was back.

Which film company put that movie out brian. From what I have read its Lions Gate that's getting the finger wag. I watched MockingJay yesterday and it had multiple audio glitches though the onscreen menu did not pop up like it does when audio is changed or interrupted.

We watched that one the other night. About five minutes into it, I got audio drop outs. I went into the Oppo menu, changed the audio output from Auto to LPCM and had no further drop outs.

I suppose it’s not that big of a deal really. Just an inconvenience. I think I may just hold off on buying a new player for a while. My luck, I’d buy one tomorrow, then Oppo will announce a new player two weeks from now…..

Lawrence of Arabia is Columbia Pictures.

I'll try the LPCM setting and see what happens.
