I am trying to set up my audio with my HDTV and DirecTV receiver (non-HD yet) & DVD player. Should I have the audio (both satellite & DVD) go right to the A/V receiver or to the TV then out to the A/V receiver? Does it make a difference? If I go direct to audio receiver, than TV speakers are not in use. This is what I am trying to do :

I have 3 Infinity speakers & a subwoofer, plus my HDTV has internal speakers. I am wondering if I can use the HDTV internal speakers as "front", 1 of my other speakers as center and the other 2 speakers as surround sound speaker r & l (plus subwoofer of course). Will that work? Or should I just bite the bullet and buy another pair of speakers?
