Afternoon boys,
I am looking for a code for my Oppo 971 that will work for my remote. I just got my 990 a couple of weeks ago and am trying to get everything on one remote. I did a search and found some codes for other Oppos but not for the 971. Any help would be greatly appreciated. And yes, I LOVE my new 990 quite a bit more than my 970

As far as I know, there are no codes in the 990's remote that will control the 971H. There are a couple UEI codes that have reportedly worked with the 971H and other UEI remotes (maybe 0226?), but the codes apparently didn't get included in the Cat48's used with the 990's.

I would give one of the other Oppo codes a try. Many times the remote codes for different models by the same manufacturer are the same.

All of OPPO's remotes use the same basic code set - a code set that, as far as I've ever heard, the 990's remote doesn't contain.

Thanx guys, I tried the 3 different codes(including 0226 from above) with no success. For now I will have to live with using 2 remotes. I can't justify the price of a Harmony yet! LOL

The Outlaw remote is regular SW remote. It can be programmed to accept the Oppo codes.
I’m using it for couple years. What you need is: PC running the programming software with parallel port, interface cable and the Oppo codes.
I can provide all the above except the interface cable which you can buy or made you self. I have diagram.

Hey guys, I just hooked up my Oppo 971 to my Samsung LN-S3251. The picture looks great, but I can't program my Samsnung remote to work the Oppo. I've tried all the codes I can find but no luck so far. I've sent an email to Oppo and maybe they'll respond after new years but thought I'd take a chance on someone having a suggestion here.
Thanks!

OPPO may know something, but the truth is that very few remotes will provide support for smaller manufacturers like Outlaw and OPPO. This is one reason that OPPO has provided firmware updates for their newer players to add support for some generic DVD player codes so that remotes with even basic DVD player support can probably work. Unfortunately, I haven't seen an update to the 971H that covers this.

Read my previous post.

You are correct, kris - the Cat48 remote used by the 990 is a JP1 type remote. JP1 remotes can be modified with a computer quite extensively, although not everyone is up for the challenge. On the other hand, I doubt that jcb62's Samsung remote is a JP1.
