OK.
Connect a component Video wire from your DVD Player component video output to the TV component Video input.
Connect an audio (L/R) wire from the DVD Player output to the TV (L/R) audio input.
That will allow you to watch your DVD movies getting sound directly from the TV speakers.

Now, Connect an audio wire (L/R) from the TV Audio output to an Audio input of the receiver so that you'll be routing the sound from your TV thru the receiver utilizing the speakers attached to it, but you have to turn the TV volume control down all the way. When you want to use the TV speakers, shut the receiver off.
