I figured comcast had an HDMI box, but DVI-HDMI works too 
My other HD box was HDMI, but the primary tuner had issues. So I returned it.

ordered the Oppo... The Denon is, how should I say... less than inspiring? The menus, usability, etc leave me feeling dirty and about 10 years in the past
The Oppo doesn't have component out, but I don't give a damn at this point. I want DIGITAL (AND it comes with a friggin' HDMI cable - imagine that!).

I have lost audio when I hooked up HDMI through DVI adapter--is this normal? Does audio make it through DVI?
I use my reciever for audio, so this is not a big problem, just rounding out some knowledge.

The HDMI box costs $5 per month more than the regular box. My bro in AZ has the same box, though, and a similar setup (50-in Panasonic), so I know it works well. I'll find out for sure tonight when I plug in that very expensive HDMI cable!!

Pretty sure DVI is a video-only format, which would explain it. I'm planning on a coax or optical audio connection, anyway.
