Oppo just released a firmware update for the BDP-93 as well as the BDP-95, for those of you having freezing issues on netflix this should fix it.

Here is the link for the firmware update, if you are unsure about it, give us a call and we'll come out and update your player.
http://www.oppodigital.com/blu-ray-bdp-93/blu-ray-BDP-93-Support.aspx

Here are the update notes:

Release date: July 31, 2012
Category: Latest Public Beta Release

Main Version: BDP9x-71-0723B
Loader Version: CN0900
Sub Version: MCU93-09-0218 (BDP-93), MCU95-08-0218 (BDP-95)

1. Added "DVD 24p Conversion". This feature restores the original 24 film frames from DVD-Video and outputs it as 1080p/24Hz. To enable this feature, enter the Video Setup in the Setup Menu, set the "1080p24 Output" to be "Auto" or "On", and set the "DVD 24p Conversion" to be "On". Note: the actual DVD 24Hz conversion quality can be affected by the display’s processing and video source, especially for a non-3:2 pulldown cadence source.
2. Resolved random freezing issue while streaming from Netflix. Previously, customers reported that after installing the last Official firmware (BDP9x-66-0413), Netflix streaming could be unreliable, and in some cases, even result in the player completely freezing until a power cycle was performed. This firmware has resolved these issues.
3. Resolved the audio decoding failure on the "Volume Sixteen" DTS Blu-ray Demo Disc (released CES 2012). Customers reported clips for "Tron" and "Lion King" were improperly decoded when HDMI was set to LPCM. This firmware upgrades the DTS SDK to correct changes in the encoding standards for these kind of soundtracks.
4. Improved general disc compatibility based on recent and upcoming Blu-ray releases as well as user-submitted disc samples, such as "Dexter (BD, Season 4)".

Someone recently ended up on our page by googling the title above. I wanted to possibly give some insight to why pandora would not work on Zone 2. Most AV receivers will not send a digital signal to zone 2, you need analog. Depending on your source for the Pandora will determine if it can be sent to your Zone 2.

Via BluRay players with apps:  your blue ray player should have analog outs, you would simply need to install a cable from the analog outs on the player to the corresponding input on your a/v receiver.

Via Smart TV's:  Some smart TV's do not have analog outs, only digital, if you only have optical available  you cannot get Pandora in Zone2. There may be an 1/8" mini jack audio out though, if you have one of these you will need a cable that has 1/8" mini jack on one end and rca's on the other, then you can plug the RCA's into the receiver to get internet audio on Zone2.

Via Apple TV: Apple TV only has Digital outs, there is no work around to get audio on Zone2 (AppleTV doesn't have Pandora right now anyways).

Via Roku: Most Roku's come with a supplied break out cable (1/8" mini jack to three RCAs - composite video, and audio). You would simply install the breakout cable & route just the audio jacks to the same input on your receiver. 

Via Sonos: Sonos has it all figured out, you should easily get Pandora on your Zone2, no work around needed! yay. 

If you use any of the above work arounds, remember that the analog audio needs to be plugged into the same input on your receiver, for example if you have pandora on your blue ray player, and the blue ray is using input one on your receiver, then the analog audio needs to be plugged into input one. That way if you have independent zone source switching, everything will be correct.

I cannot give much insight into the settings of the reciever, as everyone will have a different a/v reciever.

Audio Video Systems will be soon offering OnControls!  Turn your iPad, iPhone, Android phone/tablet or Kindle Fire into a remote!
