I had non-HDMI receiver (Yamaha) for quite a while, which I recently replaced to HDMI 1.3-receiver (also Yamaha, v1800). Certain problems "solved".

If you only want HDMI-receiver (1.1/1.2), they´re quite cheap at the moment. So personally I would upgrade the receiver, rather than focusing on these "player has to have analog-out" problems). Like I said, the HDMI-receiver doesn´t have to be "1.3" (1.1/1.2 are cheaper).

This is obviously IMO.
