While you system isn't quite "state of the art" I would say that connecting everything with HDMI (from DVD to Receiver to TV) is going to produce a great system that you will enjoy for many years.

The HDMI will make the most of all of the components and even the older version shouldn't cause too much grief in this case. If your Satellite box is capable of HDMI use that too connected to your receiver.
