Spinning CDs with a Blu-ray Player

Does anyone know of a Blu-ray player that has a "repeat" indicator on its display that is typical of CD players?

I recently purchased a Samsung BD-P2500 and the indicator only shows up on the on-screen-display. Turning off the TV stops the player and it loses the repeat setting. There is no track number on its display either. Bottom line is that the Samsung is not useful to me for playing CDs.

Anyone know if the future Oppo Blu-ray player will be more CD friendly?

Albert: How do you get the TV signal into the tiny TV?
My Dolby True-HD music disk requires using the TV (to select menu options).
I looked at portable DVD players (the only small TV screens I can find other than car TVs) but couldn't find one with HDMI, S-video, composite etc. inputs.
How are you doing this?
Also, what is the brand/model of your TTV?

Thanks Albert. Very useful info!
I saw a few portable DVD players with the yellow mini-jack for "video in" (one even had a USB connector).
Question: Is there some kind of converter cable that takes an RCA video-out and reduces to the mini-jack video-in?
Is this how to do it?
