To integrate all this, many have to go get a RECEIVER with enough inputs to accommodate all the other gear.

It's that simple.

My Sony Blu-Ray player is also a receiver.

Add more switched or change out to a receiver that can do the job.

This area is getting worse, not better as folk add more boxes. What I did does not help you but I'll share. I kicked all the game machines out of the HDTV viewing area. It's much easier to configure now.
