like hi-def dvd players and blutooth dvd players a hi-definition dvds wats the deal?
Answer
High definition DVD players will play HD-DVD or Blu-Ray DVD movies, which are recorded in 720p or 1080i or 1080p format. This means higher resolution, clearer picture and better movie experience.
The more traditional DVD players will play standard DVD's, which output at 480p.
Upconverting DVD players will play standard DVD's and scale the movies to 720p or 1080i. Quasi-high def. It's more marketing hype.
Side note, it takes approximately 10GB for an hour of high definition video. Original DVD's only store up to 8.4GB, where the high definition DVD's can store more than 50GB. Hence the need for a new format like HD-DVD or Blu-Ray, in order to support high def movies.

DVD Player w/1080p up-scaling questions..?
math geek
Ok, I just bought myself my first HDTV with 1080p resolution. And I want to try to get the most out of the DVD's I already have, and I have to be honest, I don't know too much about this stuff. I eventually want to get a Blue-Ray player, but it's out of my budget at the moment. So I was thinking about getting a DVD player with 1080p up-scaling capabilities.
My question is, does it really make a noticeable difference versus just watching DVDs with a DVD that is only capable of using composite cables? Is the difference noticeable enough to justify buying a DVD with 1080p up-scaling capabilities, or is this something that will hardly be noticeable and I would be better off saving the money for the Blue-ray player? Thanks in advance.
Answer
A dvd player that uses only yellow/red/white composite cables will send the lowest form of quality pic to your new tv. Check the back of your dvd player to see if it has red/green/blue component cables. If so, you can use those and go into your dvd player's set up menu and adjust the pic to 16:9 and the brightness and contrast and get a decent pic out of it. Your tv will upscale any signal it gets to 1080p anyway, all HD tvs display at their native resolution only. So you don't need an up scaling dvd player.
There are some very cheap blu rays out now and some people are selling first generation blu rays on craigslist, so I'd go blu ray if you are upgrading.
