Hello,

I am looking for an A/V receiver capable of switching HDMI from my HR10-250
DirecTV DVR and DVD player to a single HDMI input on my Samsung HDTV.

Does anyone know of problems/success with switching HDMI output from the
HR10-250,
or DVD player (I haven't selected a DVD player yet) ?

I have googled reports of switching problems with some hardware (e.g. cable
boxes) and issues with HDCP and was wondering if anyone had some direct
experience with the HR10-250.

Also, a recommendation on a AV receiver with HDMI would be nice (< $1500).

Thanks for any help.

The new Samsung units seem to all have 2 selectable HDMI inputs (in
addition to several other inputs).
