Then you can just hook up your HDMI cable from any old player and let the receiver handle the audio decoding.

Yes...I wish...
Well, first, I'm in Canada...so import/shipping is selective (i.e. can't use Amazon)
Second, persuading my significant other that after spending some 1,200-1,300 CAD (even if it was 5 years ago) for an HK receiver...to upgrade now to another...it's a bit of a difficult task. (Not sure if I could get anything valuable from selling the HK 430 model...even if in perfect condition as it is)
Third...already purchased an HDMI switch and cables for this set-up (my TV also had only one HDMI input)....not expensive...but still.

But thanks anyway for the suggestion....perhaps one of my friends will want an older set-up for less...
