You can check the receiver and DVD player ... maybe there is an option to set the audio to AUTO, or maybe the PCM is the correct option ...

You don't need the optical cable for the DVD ... HDMI carry the audio and video with the same cable

What cable did you use to connect the XBox??? ... remember that id you use HDMI you don't need any other ... are you changing the source on the receiver (DVD, Video 1, Video 2, TV., etc.) maybe you have to change something in the receiver set up ...

.... what's the best way to run this all to get the best sound...

I'm not familiar with HD or Blue Ray (I have an upconverting DVD player ...
) ... but I can tell you that all video connections don't go thru the receiver ( I read that is possible to have problems with the conversion from DVD to receiver and receiver to TV) ...so I do it directly to TV and just connect the sound to the receiver using optical or coaxial cables.
Have you played with the receiver calibration??? ... you need to adjust the speaker levels, bass, treble, etc to get the sound you're looking for ...
Don't be affraid of playing with the control ... if you don't like something you can reset and start from scratch ...
