Yes I could watch the dvd on the oppo. I think there is something wrong here. I'm starting to wish I would have gotten a different pre/pro. I went and got a small black and white tv with a composite input. I hooked it up to video 4 then video 5. Now I can't even turn on the menu at all. No matter what input I have the 990 on, the menu doesn't click over at all. Another thing that drives me crazy is that when I have the 990 set to certain inputs I can't switch to another via remote, or the face. I had the 990 set to video 4 trying to get the osd working and I couldn't switch it back to TV for some reason. This is not how I like to spend my saturdays.
