IIRC the samsung supported MPEG4 but the SciAtlanta only did MPEG2.

You are correct that the Samsung V+ supports MPEG4. The last of the Scientific-Atlanta ones were decommissioned a few months ago. VM hasn't switched to MPEG4 yet simply because there hasn't been any need to.

The Pace boxes are SD-only, so switching the HD channels to MPEG4 wouldn't affect them. There is little benefit in switching the SD channels to MPEG4.
