You can place the dongle directly in the player or use this included extension While it lets you select between the MHL front input and the HDMI back input, it also gives you control over whether you are using HDMI output 1 or 2 to provide ARC audio from your TV. It also has another use and that's for audio return channel (ARC) control. This means you can use the BDP-103 in-line with the another device - and that's going to be good for people who don't have an AV receiver or who just have a couple of source devices but they don't have another HDMI cable running to their television. Then you can select the source device via the player's Input button at the top of the remote. The HDMI input actually lets you set up a cable box or some other source device that will then feed into the player. You can also use them as true dual outputs, sending both audio and video to 2 different displays at once. Same goes for the eventual issues we'll have with 4K. This is good if you have a 3D television but a receiver that can't pass 3D. The two HDMI outs can be split so that one sends just audio to an AV receiver and the other goes to your display. Now let's go back again to the dual HDMI outputs and HDMI input on the back of player. Or you can use the Oppo as a switch of sorts to feed just one HDMI cable to your television. HDMI "in" means that you can make up for a lack of a receiver or enough HDMI inputs. Since Oppo didn't think it would be a great idea to have to re-adjust the hardware on their player mid-production, I'd say this was a good advance call. These are now officially, as of 2013 at least, disallowed under the new analogue sunset rules which state that no licensed player that passes decrypted AACS content to analog video outputs may be manufactured or sold by a Blu-ray adopter after December 31, 2013. What you WON'T see are any analog video outputs. The BDP-103, like the former BDP-93, includes an RS-232C connection for home control systems. Of course if you have legacy audio connections you can still use the optical or coax digital output of the player to connect it to your AV receiver.

There are dual USB inputs and also full 7.1 audio outputs.

In fact, the front panel is almost entirely identical save for more robust-looking buttons and slight modifications to the LCD display. At first glance the new Oppo looks both very similar and very different than the existing BDP-93.
