This one should be easy - for a DVI out DVD player get the Oppo 971H DVD. It upconverts over DVI to 720p and 1080i. Absolutely stunning picture on my Infocus 4805. No layer switch time at all. If it's something you look at, it currently resides at the top of the "Secrets of Home Theater and High Fidelity" DVD Shootout charts. This measures compatibility, chroma, layer changes and not really picture quality per se - but the Oppo finished above the ENTIRE Denon line including their flagship the DVD-5910.
The player is firmware upgradeable too - and Oppo has been fixing all kinds of things in response to feedback. Has a Faroudja deinterlacer in it also if you look for that.
It'll set you back $200.
