    [quote=bigscarymike]I resolved it by running the HDMI straight to the TV for video, and optical audio to the receiver, using my Harmony remote to switch the inputs accordingly.

    Optical doesn’t support all formats.  My TV only sends 2 channel audio to the receiver this way (can do Dolby Pro Logic, but not digital).  If the TV supports ARC via HDMI, you can do the same setup with the ARC HDMI cable running to the receiver and keep all the audio formats.
