Use a Blu-ray player, ideally a 4K unit but HD is still pretty good.

 

Even the cheapest Blu-ray player from Argos is hugely better than a DVD player.

If you want a high quality viewing experience.... why did buy the cheapest possible SD device for connection to an UHD TV?

 

It's time to replace that DVD collection with Blu-ray😉

Just a note that dvd s as well as well as Blu-ray disks play on a blu ray player 

 

in most cases a blu ray player will upscale the dvds so they a look a little sharper ....

That only be the case if the upscaler in the player is better than that in the TV😉

 

Many high quality TVs will be better than blu-ray players🤔

Which TVs do anyway and usually better if it is a good quality TV😉

 

The OP also wants best possible quality which can not be supplied by DVD😁
