HR20-700 HDMI audio???

[goldwing]

I have had my hr20 since sept 06 and have been using hdmi for video and optical out for audio and i am just wondering if this receiver will do both video and audio with the hdmi or is it just video? I have a Denon 4308ci receiver coming and trying to map out how i am going to wire it all up.

Thanks

HDMI will handle both.

Agree with goldwing. For my system I have a direct HDMI connection to the TV and use the optical output to my AVR so I have the option of watching DirecTV with or without the AVR turned on (I don't need want to power-up my AVR just to watch the news..).
