I have a Sagem dtr94500 that is connected to a Sony DAV330 surround sound system, and if you read the Sagem instruction manual it tells you to either use the analogue phono audio connectors or, better still, use the coaxial (toslink) audio connection. If the Denon only has an optical input there are a number of coax to optical converters that work fine (its what I use for the Sony).
ps donīt forget that you need to set the TV for HDMI input selection otherwise you get nuffink. Otherwise use the Scart connectors.
