More gadgets that rule

Got a DVR this week from cablevision just in time for Lost to come back to the airwaves. It’s a much better box than we had, the SD channels look a lot better. It also has an HDMI and optical audio out port so I ordered a new optical cable from monoprice (4 bucks shipped! Eat a bag of dicks Monster). Since there is only 1 HDMI port on the tv, I’m going to switch the HDMI from the DVD player to the cablebox, put the DVD player on Component and add the optical to the cablebox. All audio sources will then have high quality connections. Hope I don’t have to change anything on the reciever for the new optical because I can’t find the stupid instruction manual.
