This means that you have to have an MPEG2 decoder there, which no other connector requires. This adds cost, and reduces flexibility (DBS is going MPEG4 as fast as they can in order to save/shave bandwidth and offer more HD, but if they had to use AV/C over FW, they'd have to transcode MPEG4 into MPEG2, rather than just decode).<br><br>I think it was just a cost issue.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Erik]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 13th 2006 11:24AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Vista to support 1394b, aka FireWire 800]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2006/05/10/vista-to-support-1394b-aka-firewire-800/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2006/05/10/vista-to-support-1394b-aka-firewire-800/</guid><description><![CDATA[1394 is the only way you can record HDTV to D-VHS .
