I suppose that VM only actively support 4 box types at present, the 2 new cisco boxes including TiVo and fault replacement for both Samsung V+ and it's SD counterpart! For all other boxes once faulty are decommissioned!

In the future I wonder if VM could transmit in 2 different video compressions simultaneously, mpeg4 to newer boxes and Mpeg2 to the older ones?
