I think this is what HDTV is sent over. DVD players dont do HD signals yet... the only purpose i see for them is on the reciever for video switching, the HDTV tuner, and the HDTV I could be 100 wrong on this though.

Now DVI is being incorporated into satellite boxes, TV's and DVD players The DVI connection allows transmission in the "digital" format from your source(Sat/Box DVD/player)to your TV. There is 2 version of the DVI connection, an early (or First version) and a revised version. You "CAN NOT" mix and match You must use the first version source with a first version TV and a revised version source with a revised version TV HTH Dave
