even though the above symptoms and video artifacts sounds bad like chroma bug etc, in most cases people don't really notice them.. they just show up when playing test discs or only on certain movie discs at certain parts of the movie. main upgrades like full HD TV or projector will bring more improvement to visual quality than nitpicking on the current crop of BD player's minor visual flaws..
hence why I said the oppo doesn't really bring much food to the table compared to a RM900 BD60... cos 90-95% of the time the image comes out just well (using BD-60 as reference compared to oppo) especially with people using 42-50 inch screens..
while a dune is totally different set of capabilities although it's within USD100 price range from this oppo while probably within the same 90-95% visual performance of standard BD players like BD-60..

I agree. My advise as earlier is for people only viewing BD, get the Panny BD60, it more than enuf.
If u have larger screens and you are a person who is detailed and fussy, get the Oppo or Pioneer players (heck even the Denon USD4000 is ok for u).
If u need SACD, DVD-A and want good DVD upscaling get the Denon or the Oppo.
If u need a media player and a BD player, no question get the Dune!
Display is the primary component of the HT, BD players and all are secondary.
