Of course it depends on what kind of video cables you plan to input and output. I'm using a DVDO Edge video processor and switcher that accepts various kinds of inputs, but only outputs HDMI. AVS had a group buy on the Edge, and I've been very pleased with it -- a single button lets me switch both audio and video between my DirecTV HD-DVR and PS3-80. If your video display accepts HDMI, I can recommend the DVDO Edge.

Thank you for your recommendation.

Do you know the basic differences (about decoder) between PAV/PDSD and AVP ?
I just bought a Amp2 and now I´m looking for a pre-processor (AVP or PRE+DAC).
Thanks,

I replaced my Proceed PAV/PDSD with a Cary Cinema 11a for the lossless codecs and HDMI connectivity. I now have an Oppo BDP-105 that has an HDMI port for the HD-DVR and an asynchronous USB port for the Mac Mini. I use the balanced stereo and unbalanced 7.1 analog outputs from the Oppo, and the Cary inputs are set to bypass. I'm wondering about reinstalling the PAV/PDSD in the same configuration to replace the Cary. I don't care about the rear channels, 6 & 7, the Oppo processes the lossless codecs, and I don't use the HDMI inputs of the Cary. I assume that providing the tether to the PAV is in place, the PDSD will accept unbalanced analog from the Oppo; I think balanced stereo could go through the PAV.
