DVD Player for 1080p HDTV

[Apex]

Depends on what you're most sensitive to. As long as you're ok with a bit of chroma upsampling error, the Denon DVD-3930CI would be my favorite. If you can't have that, then the DVD-5910 is better, though more costly.

I've looked at upconverting DVD players and they're useless. You're simply not going to get HD quality, since the detail was never there to begin with.

Some TVs can really suck at converting 480i sources to their native res though, which is where the big advantages can be had.

I have a 720p upconverting DVD player, but I actually like the results I get from letting my display to the conversion than the player.

Some DVD players suck at converting too. I guess it's a matter of what has the better scaler.

The Silicon Optix HQV processor in the 3930CI rocks. There are better implementations, but for the price, it's hard to beat for a standalone player. Of course, it's still rather costly.
