[QUOTE="KenMasters, post: 795323, member: 517"] There is no processing required, you read the disc, you pass on the info. As for an Oppo vs a JVC BD player, if the JVC's output is correct, then yes, picture quality will be the same with native content. What you're paying for with Oppo is the advanced video processing that allows you to get the most out of DVDs and such, not native resolution content. With the even more expensive models it's the Sabre analogue section you're paying for. If it does anything to those ones and zeroes, it's a bad BD player. A player should pass on that data exactly as it is. There were issues with older Samsung players and undefeatable noise reduction, but if it wasn't one of those players, likely you were mistaken - or missed a setting. The image processors in these players don't generally affect standard playback, they come into play with things like deinterlacing and upscaling DVDs - or if you choose to engage image adjustment or "enhancement" settings. The only area in which they're of consequence with standard playback is in colour space conversion, but these days manufacturers have that side of things pretty well sorted. If there are differences, they aren't of real consequence. EDIT: There's a very good comparison video done by Vincent Teoh between the Oppo and Panasonic in which he discusses colour space conversion differences: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Ys6mpdhaZI [/QUOTE]
