The 5.1 analog outputs of the Oppo, are mainly for sacd and dvd-a playback. For movies, it's better to use the digital connection (optical or digital coax). Try that..........

When using the 5.1 analog outputs, the Oppo is doing the processing. When using one of the digital connections, the receiver does the processing.

There may be a setting in the Oppo's menus, to bypass it's volume control? My friends that have Denons, control their volume with the receiver's control, even when using the 5.1 (EXT. IN) inputs of receiver. But, they don't have Oppo players.
Good luck!
