I'm looking to buy a new DVD player and need to find one with ALL of the following capabilities:

1) The player needs to be able to output a signal through both its digital and analog outputs at the same time. (I want to connect the digital output to my preamp and connect the analog L & R outputs to my video modulator, so I can see and hear my DVD player on any TV in the house. My current Toshiba 3107 only outputs through either the digital or analog outputs at one time, not both.)

2) The player must have a coax digital output. I would prefer both coax and optical, but my Toslink inputs on my preamp are already in use.

3) The DVD player must be able to output a DTS bitstream from a DVD.

4) The DVD player must have discrete "power on" and "power off" remote codes. The remote doesn't need to have separate buttons for on and off, but the codes must be available so I can program my Philips Pronto with the discrete codes. (Note: Toshiba doesn't use discrete codes, so they are not an option.)

If anybody knows of any DVD players that meet all of these criteria, I would greatly appreciate hearing about them. I don't want to buy another DVD player until I make sure that all of the specifications can be met.

Thanks!

Mark

Well as far as I know the DVP-S7700 fits this description although I DON'T know if it can output via the digital and analog outputs at the same time. That is the only requirement in question.. Anyone know about this?

The 7700 does indeed output the digital and the analog at the same time. In fact, I beleive that all of the new sony dvd players(dvps330, 530, 550, 650...) will fit all of the requirements that you listed above.
