What Difference Will A 4k Capable DVD Player Make?

.
I do not use a television. I only use a projector as stated in the original post.

Well then, what's the point of 4k capable pre-pros and dvd players? There are no televisions and projectors to speak of with 4k resolution. If the 4k feature doesn't improve the picture on tv's & projectors without 4k, the feature is useless.

According to Projector Central, $24,000 is the lowest starting price for any projector with 4k resolution, ....hardly in the realm of the everyday consumer.

Nah Tom, my projector is five years old and out of production, I doubt any rep wants to talk to me about it. I posted this to see if anyone with a 4k dvd player or a 4k capable pre-pro got a better image on their 1080p projector.

By the time 4k becomes commonplace in tv's and projectors, all of the current dvd players will be out of production and the new models will be out. So, I think it's like Mateored above said..the whole 4k hubub is about bragging rights, because currently, there is no practical use for it if it doesn't improve the image on 1080p tv's and projectors.

Bummer.

Thanks guys, I thought I'd get a quantum leap in image quality on the cheap with one of the new Oppo machines.

I took a closer look at the PJ on the Projector Central site. The PJ listed at $24k wouldn't even be bright enough to work on my screen. The next price listed for a 4k projector is $150,000. At these prices, the 4k feature is not an option for me.

Zydo, I guess this makes me an everyday consumer.

Imhififan, I think my quantum leap in picture quality lies in your suggestion. I found a BenQ projector with 50,000:1 contrast ratio, 4,000 lumens and 1920 x 1080. All for under $3,000. This is a good deal for me.

My current projector throws a beautiful picture, but its specs are nowhere near those of the above projector. My current projector is only 2,000:1 contrast ratio, 3,000 lumens and 1024 x 768.

..thanks,
