Re: Verizon is Offering to Change STB because of Lineup changes

said by fredct:

Just wondering because I have a Tivo with cablecard. And switched video would break compatibility or at least require an adapter.

From what I've read, Premiere models will handle this switch just fine. I guess we're about to find out first hand.

We already know first hand. FiOS started using MPEG4 channels last year. Yes, TiVo Premieres handle the current FiOS MPEG4 channels just fine.(If you have a Series 3 box then you are SOL).

This is great news. Hopefully they start switching even more channels to MPEG4 and then adding some more HD MPEG 4 channels as well.

I only wish the change would occur on March 15th instead of April 15th. The sooner the better.
