New HDTV Haven't got a clue for best setup!

Recently purchased Panasonic 42PX75U, Currently BEV customer with 4100 receiver and using Toshiba vcr/dvd (SD-394SC).My limited knowledge is that the recommended connection to use is HDMI however both Sat and dvd/vcr are only S-video capable. Would greatly appreciate any info/help towards making the most of my setup. I fully expect to have to do some upgrading.
