Nah, I don't have many other ideas. Perhaps they were just poorly done pans, or at just the wrong speed that they look a bit jerky at 24fps, maybe they just turned out crappy on BD at 24fps but look fine/better at 30fps (DVD - BD based on same "old" artifacty or non-optimal transfer??). I haven't seen the Pleasantville BD (have the DVD...). But I have seen the jerky pans before (last Kuro plasma display). I'll pay attention for it now, but I have to say I am not that sensitive to it.
Do the FW update for sure. But, one thing to sort of get in the habit of with the 83 is to clear the persistant storage whenever something seems wrong. The 83 seems to really need that occasionally, especially so if you have BD-Live enabled...all sorts of strangeness can happen when the persistant storage mechanism goes south.
Edit: sorry, forgot about the synch. I have no experience running HDMI video and analog audio here, I actually had HDMI audio well before HDMI video... All I know is the obvious A/V synch setting on the Oppo (AVRs have it too). The synch setting could vary with the disc/source being played...I *am* extremely sensitive to lip synch issues, which I've never seen with HDMI A/V here.
