If you want Composite output you will have to look for a slightly older Bluray player, nothing made now has anything but HDMI.

It's not a HD-DVD player, the obsolete format you refer to.
The "HD" is it's ability to up-convert standard DVDs with its built in Faroudja processor to "HD Quality". One of the best in its day. But soon fell out of demand when blu-ray discs came out.
I don't need a blu-ray player for playing audio CDs, HDCDs, and DVD-Audio discs, and it normally wouldn't be connected to a TV, just the stereo. The Oppo does all those audio formats. And is has a volume control on the remote that I use all the time, another rarity.
