"The digital signal for sound is still fed to the receiver."
Do you mean that the digital signal is fed to the receiver via the HDMI cable, or via the separate digital audio cable (either coax or optical)? (Or perhaps via several analog PCM RCA cables?)
In other words, can you pass compressed digital audio via the HDMI cable and the receiver will decode it? If so, then does the receiver decompress the high-def audio formats on high-def DVDs?
