The first generation PS3 is the only player I know of that is. It just needed a firmware upgrade to bring it to compliance. The later PS3 don't have this ability. However, you can bet going forward that some Bluray players going forward with have some level of BDXL compatibility as this does add value to the player.

As with the display resolution you could choose how you want to save the rip.
And of course you have to live with the artifacts of that process as well. No data reduction process is perfect.
