Why Won't This Receiver Pass Stachoice Video Via Hdmi?

Hello, I have a brand new Starchoice dsr530 as well as Panasonic 58in V series plasma tv. (pioneer amp is also new) I am unable to get video or audio to pass through the amp via HDMI input and HDMI output.  It has been suggested that the starchoice DVI to HDMI cable desgn may be the issue. Video passes through to the tv just fine without the Pioneer amp inbetween.
