I do have HDMI on the receiver though, and on my motherboard, but am still going directly from the graphics card (DVI) to HDMI on the TV. I was then hoping to make another connection from the optical audio out on the motherboard, to the optical audio in (both coax) on the AV Receiver. I am also using an on-board Realtek Audio. I will let you know how I get on today, as I am spending some time on this. Out of interest, would you output from HDMI on your HTPC into the AV Receiver, and then HDMI from Receiver on to the TV? I am wondering if this is a better way of doing it, by outputting video and audio over HDMI into the receiver, and then sending video on to the TV< while the audio is outputed over the speakers.
