Can't help, but must be some kind of sync problem, since the sync signal is on the green (typically, it's "standard") and you have to hook it up first to get a pic. With the Oppo connected to the display via component, will you get a pic if you turn the Oppo on first? How about if you start the Oppo playing a disc then turn on the TV? (Just as tests, inconvenient for regular use I know.)

[Edit: deleted some stuff. Here's exactly what I was thinking of from Oppo at the *] Note that the next gen of BDPs (anybody's, legal ones anyway) most likely won't put out ANY BD video on component. Note that component output for ANY BD since day one could be disabled by the disc author, but very few were. I don't think these last two things are your problem now, just mentioning them as points of interest for the future of playing BD via component, from the perspective of both the new software and new hardware.

* When the “Primary Output” Setup Menu item in the “Video Setup” section is set to “HDMI” (see page 49 for details), the component video connection will not output video when playing a Blu-ray Disc with 1080p 24Hz content, or will only output video with a low resolution (480i/576i)
when playing a DVD. This is not a malfunction. You must set “Primary Output” to “Component” in order to properly use the component video connection.
