pduncan SatelliteGuys Pro Original poster Jul 13, 2006 278 3 Sep 26, 2006 #1 Strange question out of curiosity. I have a VIP211, which is MPEG4. Is dish transmitting anything in MPEG4 or is everything still MPEG2 right now? If they aren't, does anyone know why?

D Dish-Direc SatelliteGuys Pro Jan 23, 2006 216 1 Sep 26, 2006 #2 Transmitting in both at the moment. Most of the equipment is still only capable of MPEG-2. I believe since the dish pre-paid is using only MPEG-2, that will be around for a long time to come. I think it is a bad move, considering the piracy issue.
