Would I get the new audio formats (Dolby True HD, and DTS HD) If I connected a Blue-Ray player HDMI to a processor that does not have these logo's on the front of the unit?

Here's the equipment in question

If the BDP is set up to output 7.1 channel LPCM (looks like it does), and the processor can accept a 7.1 channel LPCM stream (looks like it does), then yes.

Also if the Lexicon does not support it as is, you may be able to get those by using the 7.1 analogue outputs from the BluRay to the Processor. Also, in my experience in the past with Lexicon, if a new audio format wasn't built in, we were typically able to upgrade them via a chip change (contact your dealer). We used to do this many times with the Lexicon DC-1 and DC-2 when new audio formats were coming available.
