Hooking up components to Panasonic AE900 or Sanyo PLV-Z4

I'm still debating which projector to purchase. I'm also planning on getting the Denon 3806 A/V receiver. Since both of these projectors has 1 HDMI and 2 component inputs, how can I hook up a DirecTV H20-600 (has HDMI output), AND a progressive DVD player like an Oppo 971 or Denon 2109, both of which have HDMI outputs?

Use a receiver with HDMI switching and run the HDMI through that or pick up a HDMI switcher which is HDCP compliant such as this one.

Under 150 bucks, and room for you to upgrade to the HD disc player later this year!

The Denon 3806 has two HDMI inputs. Use one for the DVD player (I suggest the denon over the Oppo) and the other for your HD DBS.
