The Need:

The video processor market for fixed-pixel TVs is a huge opportunity that will grow to nearly $2B by 2009. This fast growth, combined with rapid technological advances has fostered a complex array of solutions offered by ever more numerous participants. Which companies will offer the best array of price-performance products to meet the rapidly changing needs of the TV market? Which can adapt their technology to serve a host of related products with similar needs? The answers to these questions will help define future winners and losers.

However, there is not yet a comprehensive integrated solution, as the three major market segments (graphics, monitors and TV?) increasingly overlap functionality of their neighbors and a few players dominate. Meanwhile, video processing remains a key differentiator in delivering better image quality at lower cost to flat panel LCD and PDP TVs and DLP, HTPS-LCD and LCOS rear projection TVs. Finding the right combination of features, price and performance is the key need for all players in the industry.

Report Objective:

The Advanced Television Report enables an understanding of the functional elements of a modern TV’s video processing, who the providers are and how they are differentiated. An analysis of the market dynamics helps determine what Is driving growth. The report also considers potential new directions in the industry and who the winners and losers might be.

This report investigates the following three segments of video processing component manufacturers and assesses the challenges for each:

The report profiles 38 semiconductor manufacturers from ATI to Zoran, from startups to large multinational companies, including specific products they currently offer.

The Advanced Television Report explores the dynamics of the TV market and how it affects semiconductor for ATVs. Some key answers are provided to the following questions:

  1. What year will the MPEG-based Video Processor overtake conventional NTSC/PAL Video Processors?
  2. What are the major challenges for semiconductor companies?
  3. How does the ATSC conversion in the US affect these semiconductor companies’ plans and decisions?
  4. Who are the market leaders and what is their market share?
  5. Is integration onto a single chip the ultimate solution or are there other major factors that will determine the winners?
  6. What is the ATV forecast for pixel-related semiconductor content for 2005 to 2009?

Highlights:

The Advanced TV Report gives the reader a fresh look at the functions of a state-of-the-art TV and how the market is segmented to provide these functions. It also details the lost list of current providers within each segment. The report describes the direction the market is moving and the challenges facing the chipset providers in each of these segments.

The report looks at questions surrounding worldwide digital conversion and trends associated with digital broadcast and IPTV. It investigates the crowded and complex landscape and looks at the opportunities and challenges the market presents.

Following the company profiles is a market forecast to the year 2009 that shows an annual growth of 37% to $1.9B for ATV semiconductors. The market forecast is broken down by region and by market segment.

Over 45 figures and tables illustrate functional diagrams of comparative product offerings, product shipments, market forecasts details, global digital conversions status, worldwide DTV and broadcast standards, codec suppliers and other key information to an overall understanding of the global video processing market opportunity.
