Why are the menus on some DVD-A discs not working properly?
On some DVD-A discs the player does not properly display the cursor or highlighting on the disc menu. Sometimes it’s invisible, sometimes it appears intermittently. This seems to happen when the player aspect ratio is set to Wide/Auto. The workaround is to use a different setting (Wide, for example) when playing these discs. OPPO support says: This is something that we can investigate for a future firmware release, but in our experience with DVD-Audio media this is likely something that won’t be addressed. The DVD-Audio authoring was designed for 4:3 (originally) and was only in its late cycle changed to 16:9. This is why compatibility issues exist with some DVD-Audio discs. We have other samples of media which exhibit similar issues which we are working with MTK in resolving through future firmware upgrades.
