Try to understand DTS96/24

Reading the pdf file for DTS96/24 http://www.dtsonline.com/9624.pdf
it stated that:

*****
DTS 96/24 offers the following:
- Sound quality transparent to the original 96/24 master.
- Full backward compatibility with all existing decoders. (Existing
decoders will output a 48 kHz signal.)
- No new player required: DTS 96/24 can be carried on DVD-video, or in
the video zone of DVD-audio, accessible to all DVD players.
- 96/24 5.1-channel sound with full-quality full-motion video, for music
programs and motion picture soundtracks on DVD-video.
- 96/24 through the S/P-DIF output. DTS 96/24 allows the use of external,
very high quality D/A converters and associated analog electronics
chosen by the user.
***********

Base on point number 2 & 3. I am reading that all current DVD player will be able to play DTS96/24 format DVD. Am I correct?
What about the decoder or HT receiver. Will I need to have something that support DTS95/24 or any current player can do?

TIA,
Sam
