Will this work???

Purchasing 52" Sony Bravia .... Denon 5.1 system without hdmi inputs. Undecided on Oppo 940H??? or PS3 for new DVD player??? Switching from Direct TV to DISH TV for HD. Can I run fiber optics from satellite receiver to Denon and coax from DVD player to Denon and get both full audio and video capability from both sources to the TV?? Plan on running HDMI from both satellite receiver and DVD player directly to TV. Secondly I'd like to ask if 40G on the PS3 would be all I need should I decide to go with that player (not a big gamer ... maybe guitar hero or similar game(s). Any advice much appreciated ... thanks ... Patrick

For a non-gamer the 40G PS3 is plenty...and you get Blu-Ray with it. I would try for HDMI when going for the 5.1.

Also, even without HDMI you can get really good Hi-Def signals from the PS3 to the Denon as most DVDs are not yet protected, albeit the "handshake" can be annoying. Even then, without HDMI you can the that cute device called 'HDFURY'---google it.
