Any DVD player would work. make sure the DVD has HDMI connection for best picture. i currently own a SONY Bluray and works perfect!

I have a Toshiba that believe it or not, is a VCR/DVD player and recorder that works really good. I also have a Technics that is good quality also

I am fuming also! Where is the Blue Ray or HD DVD player that won't obsolete my collection high definition audio disks? I want something that includes DVD-Audio, SACD, and HDCD.

Get a free Sony BluRay player is the only deal..

Brian, I did purchase this DVD player and it will not upscale through component, only through HDMI. I guess I have to live with 480p for now until I get a TV with HDMI inputs.

Alright, thanks for answering! I think I'll have to get a hdmi to vga converter to at least have the picture in HD then buy a bluray player later on.

Actually, LG has a hybrid player that plays both HD-DVD and BLU-RAY for $ 1,000.00. It is now available to pre-order.Hope this was helpful.

R. Viegas...Any upconverting DVD will do just fine just make sure it has an HDMI cable (does not need to be in the box because you can buy the for a couple of bucks on monoprice)But The PS3 in my opinion is a great upconverting DVD player that also allows for internet browsing DIVX playback and Will never go out of date if you have a Wireless connection and do firmware updates. Oh and if someone wants to play games it does that too. If you wanna PS3 they have bundles that include a Remote and free blu-ray rentals at blockbuster Sorry for the rant but IMHO the real cool HD is Blu-ray R.

I've tried a few different video types but all through a smart bluray player. What are you playing? based on how it seems to function id say that should work.

I have his same Sony dvd player. Picture and sound are fabulous...but you need a Samsung or Sony (same screen) to see the quality diffI.

By far, the majority of my high def wish list is on HD DVD exclusively. For me, the question was never "should I buy HD DVD" it was "should I buy a player that will allow me to play the odd BD too". Both formats will be around for years to come, and I think that smart buyers are among the early adopters of the universal/dual player formats.

Any DVD player will work, it is the projector that will really matter, there are many options and price ranges for projectors.

I was also wondering, as I got my tv yesterday and hi def time warner cable today. I also put it on 120hz. So, can anyone tell me when and how to benefit from this feature? Also would appeciate any recs on sound system- not too expensive to add to tv, and what to go with blue-ray or other high def DVD player..thanks.

Mine plays DVDs better than any DVD player. Return your unit and get another one.

I went with the Sharp BD player, and it's working fine now. I already have a PS3, but I wanted a second player for a smaller tv I have in my household (which is a Sharp Aquous too).

Did they just forget these features when they made Blue ray players? I doubt it, they just left room for improvement so we would have a reason to buy newer models. The proof in this is to ask yourself how many DVD players you have boughtt over the years, and how many of them were bought because the old one stopped working, versus you just wanted some of the cool upgraded features they offered?

Yeah, guess I'll be living with my old multiregion DVD player (a CyberHome) as well for a while yet... still hoping to reduce the number of remotes we have to deal with (I was happy that LG included program codes for a whole bunch of TVs, so I could get the LG remote to control my TV [a Philips LCD], at least!). Thanks for the pointer: here's hoping...!
