From the Blu-Ray player, you're fine with just the one HDMI cable. When you use the Netflix app on the TV, the sound is coming from the TV, so you have to add another cable from the TV to the receiver. Some have an optical output and others only have a mini-plug for it. You can't use an HDMI to get from TV to the receiver because those are only inputs from other sources.
