Except for the $2000 list Denon DVD5900 DVD player and the $1600 list Pioneer DV-59i, you're not going to get a DVD player with a built-in decoder that also gives you a DVI-HDCP output. If that's what you want, either player should do nicely.Right now, the under $300 DVI DVD player options are limited. You may want to see what's going to be offered in Q1 2004. If you can't wait, there's the Bravo D1 from VInc and the HD931 from Samsung. There are also a few others, like the Momitsu V880 and a new LiteOn model with a DVI output. You can do a search for all of these players in the DVD Hardware section at www.avsforum.com to see what others think of them.
You didn't mention anything about price, so I'll just recommend Denon for the processing function, should you choose to go this route. Actually, starting with the AVR2803 and working your way up, take a look at their receivers. They have preamp outputs and decode just about every format that's available for DVD movies (DTS ES 6.1, DTS 5.1, Dolby Digital EX 5.1, Dolby Digital 5.1, Dolby Pro-Logic II, etc). They start off at $799 list. You can see them here:

You need a DVI-D male to DVI-D male cable. The Pacific Cable model is only $16 for the 1m/3ft version (DVISL-1). Other lengths are available, but keep it less than 5m/16ft.
