It's digital audio out, which should support whatever format it was received in. That said, most television sets don't exactly have stunning sound systems built in to them, so it's not really a useful solution for a home theater.

If your receiver has an HDMI in.
My receiver is about 6 years old now, just when HDMI was becoming the Big New Thing and DRM kept it from working correctly 90% of the time anyhow.
Personally I think HDMI is more of a hassle than it's worth. Yes, you need it for HD video, but carrying the video and audio signal in the same cable just isn't that useful.

I just bought an HDMI capable receiver a few months ago.
It's the greatest thing ever. One single cable from each device cleans up the back of the stereo rack very nicely.

A better idea is to have your RX connect to your network and play it that way. If you cannot do that most BlueRay players have a USB slot now. Get an external drive and play your movies off of that.
