Pioneer Elite BDP-05FD

Hello, I have the Pioneer Elite BDP-05FD. When I hooked up this player to my receiver and to the TV, I getting very grainy and fuzzy picture quality when using HDMI connection. Watching blu-ray movies looks great but NOT regular DVD movies though.

If I hook it up from the player to TV, it might improve picture quality. But the problem is that I can not get DTS-HD Master Audio if I am not using HDMI cables correct? Can I still get DTS-HD Master Audio sound format if I am using either coaxial or optical cables?

Thanks for any advice!!!

I have this player feeding through an Elite 07 receiver then onto an Elite FD151 display. DVD's look better than they did with my old system but that's hardly a fair comparison. I saw very little, if any, difference between high dollar Audio Quest HDMI and my current Blue Jean HDMI cable.

If DVD's look worse than you previous player I'd guess there's a problem with the 05 player.
