How do I reassign the audio input source labels on a Sony HTIB system?

I have a Sony STR-KS2300 Home Theater in a Box (HTIB) 5.1 system, and I've connected a Dish Network receiver, an XBox360 and a PS3 to it via a coaxial and 2 optical audio cables, respectively.
It works fine, but the source labels are tied to the inputs on the back of the receiver, such that the Dish Network is the DVD source, the PS3 is the TV source, and the XBox360 is the Video2 source.
This is very annoying, as it's hard to remember which source button to press to watch which input, and is near impossible to explain to anyone else.

Is there a way to reassign the input labels to different sources for this HTIB receiver? If not specifically for this, than for any Sony HTIB?

The tip is for the correct answer for my specific system, or the best explanation as to why this is not possible to do.
Thanks!

I've read through the manual for your system: http://esupport.sony.com/US/perl/model-documents.pl?mdl=HTSS2300 and it appears that the newer Sony receivers in the HTIB do not come with the ability to rename the source displayed in the LED window.

I'm familiar with what you were looking for, as I have a STR-K840P that does allow renaming.

Sorry I couldn't be of more help.
