Universal DVD Player

Hi all!

I am looking for a new universal DVD player. I want to buy a DVD player that can handle SACD and DVD Audio. I also want the best quality picture and I have heard of 1080p but not sure what that means.

If I buy a DVD player that can handle the 1080p picture quality, do I need to have a TV that has 1080p capability as well? I believe my TV has the 1080p and it also has HDMI connection.

What some reasonable price universal DVD players out there that can do what I want?

Thanks for any advice!!!

Would a Blu Ray player picture quality look good on a DLP projection TV. I have a Samsung 50 inch DLP projection TV. It has HDMI connection but it does not do 1080p. It will do 1080i and I am not sure if I need to buy a player now with 1080p since my TV can only handle 1080i.

Anyone out there have a blu ray player and use it on a DLP projection TV? If yes, does it even look good? Or should I stick with a regular universal DVD player for now and upgrade to a Plasma TV later with blu ray player that has 1080p?

Here is a stupid question. Can you play a regular DVD movie on a Blu Ray player? If yes, can you still get the DTS and Dolby Digital sounds on the regular DVD discs?

I understand that the Blu Ray disc has Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD. I am sure if it will detect the regular DVD discs for DTS and Dolby Digital.
