Hi, was looking for help on deciding which High Def DVR (or PVR) is recommended.
Requirements:
JTAG (even if spread out like 510)
not cardless
I was looking at the 921 but don't know if it is jtagable.
Thanks for the help.

The 921 is not cardless, mine is subbed with a yellow 103. The newer HD DVRs (942, 622) are cardless.
No HD DVRs are jtagable and there is no public way to test any of them at this time.

You could wait for the 622 to come out and then sub with Mili.
The Vip 622 dual tuner will be out in March.
You should watch the Charlie chat 2nite and find out what the future of HD is going to be on Dish and Mpeg4.

No joke Legenda1a see copy and paste below

SatelliteGuys.US has learned that at CES Dish Network will be introducing two new receivers.
The ViP622 DVR is a Dual Tuner MPEG 2/4 High Definition DVR with a 320GB Hard Drive.)
The unit will have an ethernet connection for future use.
The specs I have list 180 hours of SD and 25 Hours of HD which does not seem correct to me
It will be like the 942 with Single and Dual Modes. Most of the other specs match the 942 almost exactly.
- Single Ota Tuner (Only used by TV1)
- Single / Dual Modes
- Component Video & HDMI output for TV1 HDTV
- Shared MTS Stereo Agile modulated output, sends TV1 & TV2 signals out on 1 RF port on 2 different channels. (This is cool!)
Note - No RF Output for TV1 (ie; ch3/4)
In addition Dish will be releasing the ViP 322 which is a dual tuner NON DVR receiver.
It is MPEG 2/4 SD / HD (Tuner 2 is only 480i)
Ethernet for future use
OTA Tuner (Only used by TV 1)
- Single / Dual Modes
- Component Video & HDMI output for TV1 HDTV
- Shared Mono Agile modulated output, sends TV1 & TV2 signals out on 1 RF port on 2 different channels. (Again I love this feature!)
Ch 3/4 RF Output for TV1 is also available
Sounds like two exciting models.
Remember where you heard about them first.
