Cyfrowy Polsat moves to MPEG-4



Poland’s Cyfrowy Polsat will switch entirely to MPEG-4 compression for the delivery of its TV services at the beginning of October.

It adds that the transition will take place in stages up until the end of September and almost 100% of its subscribers already use HD decoders enabled to receive MPEG-4 signals.

Those that don’t will be able to exchange their current ones free of charge.

Cyfrowy Polsat is the largest provider of integrated multimedia services in Poland.

So it does look like SD is on the way to being phased out in Poland at least. I wonder if this will lead to the pairing of cards & receivers and thus the loss of another shareable.
