Your Oppo will not play the HD DVD format. You need the regular DVD version of Digital Video Essentials, not the HD version.

Thank you.
I feel a bit stupid but here is another question. Since the Oppo upconverts, will the standard definition DVEs disc help me optimize my HDTV? it is a sony XBR960 34" CRT HDTV. The picture is already really nice but I just want to make sure I am getting the best possible outcome with the set-up I have. It uses an HDMI cable direct from the Oppo to the HDTV and the sound uses a digital optical out into my H/K receiver. (The H/k does not have HDMI inputs, only component).

  The standard-version DVE can be a very useful tool, even on an HD set. After all, your Oppo player is connected to the set, and it only plays standard DVDs. Improve the TV setup using standard DVE, and you will improve your enjoyment of those standard DVDs. It should also improve your overall enjoyment of other sources, even HD signals from OTA, sat, or cable.
