I know there's a MPEG 4 HD PVR for dish 622? I think?not sure of the model #). I presently have the 3200(only 1 receiver), I'm looking to upgrade it to eithere a SD MPEG 4 receiver(if there is one? if so whats it called?), if not can the MPEG 4 HD PVR receiver 622? or just the HD MPEG 4 receiver ??? can both get MPEG 4 for SD or is that only for HD?

Thanks.

So there is no MPEG 4 SD receiver? then So then I'm assuming the SD channels on Dish are MPEG 2> if not then then my only choice would the 622 which then I assume can do MPEG 4 for SD or am mistaken in this answer?

Currently there is no sd mpeg4 receiver. Not sure when it will be made available, there have been several sd mpeg4 channels uplinked but none are available yet.

Dish has many MPEG4 receivers.

Receiver only - ViP211 and ViP222.
DVR Receivers - ViP612, ViP622, ViP722

All 5 are HD and SD, there is no MPEG4 SD receiver because presently there is no MPEG4 SD being transmitted to any customers.

All the Dish MPEG-4 receivers will also decode MPEG-2, HD and SD.
