I think the DAV-X1 is an integrated DVD upscaler and receiver together. It looks like you should be able to get everything hooked up video wise and get the best PQ you can expect to get. Simply plug the Blu-ray and DAV-X1 directly into the XBR via HDMI and the DirecTV in via component video. No need to use HDMI on satellite. Then plug the Blu-ray and the DirecTV HD-20 audio into the coaxial digital inputs on the DAV-X1 (marked Video 1/SAT 1, Video 2/SAT 2). You wont be using the DAV-X1 to switch video inputs only audio. Since there is no component video in or HDMI in on the DAV-X1 you wouldn't get HD if you put your video through the DAV-X1 only if you connect directly to the TV. The only issue is that the DAV-X1 doesn't support the latest and greatest audio formats that Blu-ray has to offer (Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD.) and since it only accepts coaxial/optical digital in the best you can do is two channel PCM, or lossy DTS or Dolby Digital.
