Brand New Report Looks At The Most Widely Used MPEG Standards, the IC Products Available, and the Companies Supplying Them.DUBLIN, Ireland -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c62655) has announced the addition of MPEG (Moving Pictures Experts Group) An ISO/ITU standard for compressing digital video. Pronounced "em-peg," it is the universal standard for digital terrestrial, cable and satellite TV, DVDs and digital video recorders (DVRs). Video ICs: H.264 in the Limelight to their offering. The expansion of the MPEG video IC market continues as markets for devices that need to encode or decode MPEG video continue to grow. Overall, though, different markets are changing at different rates. This report looks at the most widely used MPEG standards, the IC products available, and the companies supplying them. This report contains 2006 unit and revenue share, as well as five-year unit, ASP, and revenue forecasts for the following MPEG video IC categories: -Consumer MPEG-2 Encoder/Codec ICs -MPEG Decoder ICs for DVD Players -MP@ML MPEG Decoder ICs for Online Networks -MPEG-2 MP@HL MP@HL Main Profile At High Level Decoder ICs -MPEG-4 ICs for Mobile Applications -H.264 Decoder ICs for Line-Powered Applications Five-year unit, ASP, and revenue forecasts are also provided for Consumer H.264 Encoder/Transcoder/Codec ICs.

All SDTV formats are interlaced, and SDTV pictures are not as sharp as progressive scan EDTV or HDTV (Enhanced Definition or High Definition). SDTV Vs. Sets Other Digital Set Top Boxes Forecast MPEG-2 MP@HL Decoders for HDTV (High Definition TV) A set of digital television (DTV) standards that offer the highest resolution and sharpest picture. Although some HDTV sets are available in standard (rather square) screen sizes, the overwhelming majority of sets are wide screen, which eliminates AMD (Advanced Micro Devices, Inc., Sunnyvale, CA, www.amd.com) A major manufacturer of semiconductor devices including x86-compatible CPUs, embedded processors, flash memories, programmable logic devices and networking chips.
