We can't make assumptions about proper and complete setup if you don't explicitly mention the steps involved, so... did you assign and select the digital inputs properly?

Page 23 etc
BTW: I concur with your decision to send the video directly to the TV from the BD even though Denon and others expect it to make a hop through the receiver first.
Get into your BD and find its audio out setup. Make sure its settings for digital audio output bit rates, speaker presence, type, size, distance and bass-handling are set correctly.
Yes, everything is setup properly on the setup screens but regardless of what input I choose on the receiver, it always states Analog. It never recognizes a Digital signal. I tried the steps on page 42-43 and had no luck. Excuse the ignorance but what is BD?
BD=Bluray Disk.
Clearly your receiver is not seeing the optical audio or assigning it to the input correctly. Is ther good 'light' coming in from the BLURAY and the SAT?
Evaluate the front panel indicstors and understand what each one means in the context of NO SOUND. Pay particular attention to EXT IN. (Page 44).
Another assumption to verify. Does the receiver produce audio from anything? Say, FM?
thanks, I'll double check the BD. Strange though that the Dish receiver doesn't produce sounds either! Yes, I get sound from FM, 2nd DVD/CD and MP3.
Well, that proves our failure is in the digital domain and EXT IN, MUTE, Tape are NOT the problem.
Don't look directly into the fibre. Shine it onto a piece of paper.
