Question quick Q on sv & kv - h.d. support

hi all, just noticed the achievement of getting channels back though lan and carling bin files - sounds great.

been doin some digging about the features on the new boxes but couldn't find some h.d. details.

i know u can get sv7 for around £100 - less support or sometime more outage from servers (or so peps say)
then theres the kv a780 (or somethin) - better support less outage, same features but cost around £150
then the v hd combo for around £200 - great its hd but with a sat tuner i dont even want.

anywayz the combo will find vm h.d. channels that are avaliable from vm and the server and play them. i'm guessing the first 2 boxes don't support h.d. channels?

if so do either of them do any upscaling at all - couldn't find this info anywhere.

thanks for any help

correct me if i am wrong but any cable reciever can not actually decrypt HD channels. (except for legit v+/vhd) since the rsa is not available from these stbs
