Wheez I was lookng at the manual last night and I could not find how to disable the scaler for the HDMI port on the 3808 that the Oppo is assigned to.

I'm not familiar with the Denon, but look for a setting for video processing, and see if it can be disabled. Hopefully someone else can tell you exactly what it is called.

Make sure that under HDMI Setup->i/p scaler is set to "off". For each input, "Video Convert" should also be set to "off". I just came across this Denon to English dictionary and states- "i/p SCALER: This setting turns the analog-to-digital scaling functions of the receiver on or off. Note that all models dicussed on this website (i.e. below the 3808ci) will NOT do any video processing on HDMI video! There is no scaling or processing at all on HDMI inputs, these settings and all the other video processor settings apply ONLY to analog-to-HDMI transcoding. "

If the Denon doesn't do any processing of the HDMI port, and the Oppo is being connected by HDMI, then no setting needs to be changed.
Note to Cam: Since you were talking about connecting your satellite, you'll want to use the processing of the Denon's ADC to convert the component input to HDMI along with scaling it to match the native res of your display and possible adjust the black/white levels along with color and tint.

" Wait a second; so if I connect my rank cable signal to the 3808 via HDMI, the 3808 will not scale that signal up to 1080p because it arrived via HDMI??????  WTF. What is the point of 150 HDMI inputs if I still need to hook up 3 video cables to use the scaler.  Anybody know if this issue was fixed for the 4310?

On the 3808 the i/p scaler can be set to [Off], [A to H], or [A to H & H to H].
A=analog
H=HDMI

Sure; if you read every word you get that impression. But if you just read most of the words you get to freak out about an impending purchase and add one to your long line of 1/32 informed posts. Tomato, "Tom oto".

Ah, so [A to H], is what Cam (and anyone else wanting to scale/deinterlace the analog inputs, but not touch the HDMI) should pick.
It would be nice if that was per-input. So something like the Oppo could be untouched, but a lesser DVD player could take advantage of a pretty good scaler in the Denon. As it is now, you'd have to connect that DVD player by analog if you wanted it scaled, while not touching the Oppo. Oh well...
