Can you play Blu-ray discs on regular DVD player?
BluRay discs carry high definition television and therefore store data in a high density format. A standard definition DVD player will not recognise a BluRay disc and will simply report an error if one is loaded. On the other hand, a BluRay player will not only play BluRay discs but will also handle standard DVDs. Most will also recognise and play CD format discs. Most Bluray players will also down convert the HD signal from a BluRay disc so that it can be viewed on a standard definition television. In this case, of course, the image quality will be the same as any other standard definition signal. To benefit from the high definition signal, an HD television is also required.

Can I watch High Definition video without a blu ray player?
Yes you can. If you mean cable as in the broadcast feed from a cable supplier, then Bluray player operates independently of the broadcast feed. If, by high def cable, you mean the cable from the player to the television, it would be an HDMI cable. Even without an HDMI cable, almost all Bluray players have a composite video interface that will deliver a standard definition version of the output.
