Hookup questions-Newbie

[tdharley]

Alright here we go


I have a blue ray player (Panasonic BD30k) that needs HDMI & 5.1 channel out put,,,,,a DVD player (Sony DVP-CX985V) that needs HDMI & 5.1 channel out put,,,,,and a cable box that needs a HDMI output & finally a TV with only 2 HDMI inputs. What receiver should I look at to get 2 5.1 inputs & 2 HDMI to 1 outputs.

The problems are, the DVD players both need HDMI inputs and the cable box needs an HDMI input, I only have 2 on the Pioneer Plasma. Also I would like to hookup the DVD players to 5.1 surround sound which my current A/V receiver handles ony one input., need two. Hmmmmmmm new receiver or any better wiring suggestions.

Please advise
Thanks
Tom
