Press Release Summary = OPPO up-converting DVD player puts out a solid 1080p picture
- plus it sounds great

Press Release Body = MOUNTAIN VIEW, CALIF. July 26, 2007 - OPPO Digital, Inc.
(www.oppodigital.com), an award winning consumer electronics manufacturer, today
announced that its flagship DV-981HD up-converting DVD player has been recognized
yet again from the audio and video community - this time from Sound & Vision
magazine. In a recent test, the magazine awarded the DV-981HD as "Certified and
Recommended," a rating that is sure to hold water with home theatre enthusiasts
everywhere.

The OPPO DV-981HD converts standard DVDs to high definition output such as 720p,
1080i and even true HD 1080p, making DVD watching on large screen flat panel TV a
pleasant experience. Featuring an HDMI output and the award-winning DCDiŽ video
processing technology by Faroudja, the player delivers a spectacular picture with
vivid color, fine details, and life-like picture quality. And as Sound & Vision
quickly realized, the DV-981HD offers an equally impressive audio experience,
playing high-resolution audio formats such as DVD-Audio and Super Audio CD (SACD).

What's even more impressive - the DV-981HD retails at just $229, meaning there's no
reason to sink a large investment prematurely into a Blu-Ray or HD-DVD solution.

As Al Griffin of Sound & Vision explains, "With HD DVD and Blu-ray Disc continuing
to battle for the title of sole next-generation video format, alternatives such as
the OPPO DV-981HD up-converting DVD player are an excellent option for HDTV owners
who, either through a shortage of cash or an excess of good sense, prefer to wait
things out on the sidelines. The DV-981HD provided consistently solid-looking 1080p
pictures, as well as fine-sounding audio from DVDs, DVD-Audio discs, SACDs, and
regular CDs. When you add in the player\'s ability to handle additional disc and
multimedia file formats such as Picture CDs and DivX, it totals up to a pretty great
deal."

\"We're continually trying to push the boundaries of the price-performance barrier
and provide enthusiasts with high quality, value and versatility," explained Jason
Liao, vice-president of product development at OPPO Digital. "So, we take great
pride in any industry honor - and especially one from the respected Sound & Vision
editors."

The DV-981HD is available today at an estimated retail price of $229 and can be
ordered directly from OPPO Digital\'s web site www.oppodigital.com or through an
authorized reseller.
