How to choose a reciever that can upconvert hdmi

I recently remodeled my lower level and wired an hdmi cable (and coax) to an outlet on the wall for a flat screen TV. I would like to purchase a receiver that can supply an hdmi signal to the tv from sources that include an old VCR (when needed), my local cable company's box, and various other analog sources if needed. I have no budget, but want to get the best bang for my buck!
Thanks
