Hey, do any of you have a DVD player with the upconversion through the DVI? I've been searching for a quality one under $500 for a couple months now, but every one seems to have something wrong with them. Best Buy sells a Sammy HD841, but this thing is crappy according to all its reviews. The new wave of them are HDMI players now, I'm hoping they will be better than the straight DVI ones. I don't have a HDMI input on my TV, but they make the HDMI to DVI cables. You just gotta have a optical or coaxical digital audio cable, which I already have on my setup now, so that's no big deal. Anyway, I'm trying to find a good one. I recently bought the Denon 1910 DVD player that has the upconversion through the DVI, but I didn't like it too much. For some reason it has some conflicts with some TVs, my Sammy is one of them, so it reacts a little flakey. So I had to send it back.
Right now I'm waiting on the new Sony DVP-NS975V DVD Player to become available. And I've seen the new Toshiba SD-5970 DVD Player but I've heard mixed reviews on it as well. Although I've heard more good things than bad things about it. And it is $100 cheaper than the Sony.
I was also interested in the new Sammy HD941 expected out by the end of the year. But it keeps getting delayed and now isn't even at samsung.com anymore. That's not good!
So basically, I was wondering if anyone here can recommend a good upconversion player that is less than $500 that you have had some contact with. Thanks.
