Help in getting surround sound from my system?

Hi, I have just bought a Bravia KDL 40 EX503 and Sony BDPS370 - absolutely fantastic, but I am having problems connecting.

I have Sony STR-DA 1200ES AV receiver and Sony DVD recorder RDR DX D860.

I have not used HDMI before, but bought 3 new cables and connected the BD and RDR into the 2 HDMI inputs on back of AV amp with 2 of these leads (inputs say DVD and other TV/sat) and last HDMI cable from HDMI monitor output on back of amp  to TV input. There is NO sound via amp Yes I altered tv speakers to amp)

Also BD would not play.

The only way I can get the BD to work is by connecting it directly to TV  via HDMI and running a digital coaxial from it to my AMP.

The DVD recorder will deliver sound and pictures to the TV, but cannot get the Amp to work??

Also how can I put sound from my new TV (with built in Freeview) through the amp.

Am I missing somethig??

Thank you so much for any advice

JB
