Discrepancy with LA - HD Locals

[smyrna]

I was wanting to "move" my Dish network to my LA Apartment because I just got D* in my Atlanta Apt. But in doing my research about the LA locals i found a discrepancy between "The List!" and Lyngsat. One says its MPEG-2 the other MPEG-4 and there is only 5 days difference between the updates, both were last week and the channel numbers match. Can anyone definitively tell me if its MPEG-2 or MPEG-4?

If I'm correct the LA Locals are MPEG-2 but with MPEG-4 headers so they can only be seen by MPEG-4 receivers.

What does that mean? Does it mean its a mgep2 picture?

Yes it is a MPEG-2 picture, but it cannot be seen by MPEG-2 receivers, only MPEG-4 receivers.
