is that we finally have a company willing to take advantage of the promise of HDMI -- one cable, one output (the DVD-2500BTCI). It's sad that this capability was available with DVD players, but no one had the balls to do it.

It it were up to me, the higher quality video processor would also be used in the transport (for a few dollars more, of course). Denon's probably targeting this one to the Home Theater crowd that uses a video processor.

The transport still requires both an external audio and video processor. - oscar 17:26:01 12/16/07 (0)
It's main target is probably still the "traditional" Receiver and/or preamp/processor. In a few years, I would expect most HD media players to be little more than transports with HDMI connections, after all, what else would you need (unless you are the oddball like me who's "stuck" with a multichannel analog preamp) ?

I'm curious how much value added a video processor would be if you had a 1080p/24 source player and display ?
