Want a cheap one as it hardly gets used should I get one with HDMI output?
Old one used SCART. TV has the sockets.

They probably all have HDMI now and SCART has likely disappeared from

Even though you use it very little, it might be worth considering paying
a bit more and getting a blue-ray player instead. It'll still play DVDs,
but gives you the option for blue-ray as well in the future - mainly for
if you can't get hold of what you want on DVD.
