simplify. just buy a blu ray player & connect it directly to your tv. don't make it so complicated. btw, calling a blu ray player a ''''''blu ray dvd player'''''' makes as much sense as calling a dvd player a ''''''dvd cd player''''''. blu ray disks are not dvd's; just as dvd's are not cd's.

how about rip blue-ray dvd to hd video first, and play the ripped video on mac mini with your hdmi cable connected to hdtv? you may try this free blu-ray ripperhttp://www.playvideomobile.com/windows/free-blu-ray-dvd-ripper.html but it can only run on windows pc
