I've talked with Oppo regarding this feature on other models and I believe it has been a feature of all models they have released. If you are curious about using the built-in remote volume control, contact Ric Shultze at EVS. He mods the Oppos and is a proponent of using the built-in VC. www.tweakaudio.com Enjoy, TIC

It does turn on where you last left it, so be careful with volume. I would suggest you turn on the Oppo first, turn down the volume, then turn on the amp...... BTW, I think the volume control is in the digital domain, so you will lose resolution as you turn down the volume. I'm using a mod'd Oppo DV-970 direct to amp and it works great.
