“if I connect the hdmi output of the receiver to an hdmi input of my tv, and a dvd player to the receiver, then when I select dvd as the input of the receiver, I will get both picture and sound from tv? Will I get sound on tv if I select USB/FM/phono?”

No, the AVR will process the audio to the theater speakers by default. You can go into the AVR's menu and select Video - HDMI Setup - HDMI Audio Out. Changing that to "TV" will pass the HDMI input audio (DVD player) to the TV speakers. At that point, the AVR will not process the DVD audio, but just pass it to the TV speakers. For the USB, AM/FM or Phono sources, these sources are internal only and they cannot be passed to the TV speakers.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes, but why invest in A/V receiver if you want to use TV speakers for sound output? If you have a newer TV you could connect almost anything directly to TV inputs.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes, any hdmi input signals (audio and video) will be sent through the hdmi out. I have my bluray hooked up this way. You may have to select tv speakers for audio output in your TV's audio menu if you don't have surround speakers. I can switch between full surround from the receiver and just the TV speakers in the TV menu.
