Does anyone know if I would buy an HD-DVD player now with hdmi 1.1 now and then upgrade to a new player with hdmi 1.3 is it compatible with the same wire that I am using now? and if the HD-TV is 1.1 and the player is 1.3 are there any problems coming from this?

Check out the article sfrom Rodolfo for specs and an in depth understanding. Article 1 of a 10 part series...

The quick answer is 1.1 is fully compatible with 1.3 and you can use the same cables. You do not gain additional features or capability over 1.1.

A 1.1 display will only accept 1.1 features and capability from a 1.3 source.
