Default Watching TV without the Receiver

I think I know the answer to this question, but I'm not sure.

Right now I have my DirectTv DVR and Blu-Ray Player connected to my receiver through two HDMI inputs and one output HDMI to my TV. Every time I watch the TV I have been using my HT. I wanted to know if there was a way to use the TV without the receiver like for watching the news or my daughter watching cartoons where my HT isn't necessary. I was thinking about using a optical cable from my Directtv receiver to the TV for audio, but I won't get video if my receiver is not on. I think I would have to use the regular coax cable if I want video.

Any ideas would be helpful.
