Oppo BDP-83 question


If you have a standard DVD player with better audio capabilities than the Oppo BDP-83 blu-ray player, could you play a standard DVD in the DVD player and then run the video through the 83's internal video upscaling, does the 83 have an video input to do this or does the company sell any attachment for this?

My standard dvd player is a Marantz DV12S1. I believe it used to retail for around $2-3,000; I bought it for $1,000 about 7 yrs ago. Built very well, and heavy for a player. I suspect it has far better audio circuitry than the Oppo BDP-83, but it doesn't output HDMI.
Oppo BDP-83 SE or Nuforce Edition will outperform the Marantz in audio performance.
heres a question for you SE knowledgeable types. Can I run the video out the HDMI and the audio out the analog outs at the same time. I ask because it has rca video outs and I find nothing that actually says you can do that. Likely a dumb question but it that would be a nasty surprise for me!

sorry to jump the thread.
Yes...like Kal said. I run hdmi to my pj and analog outs to my prepro and digi to my prepro with my 83.
