With total exports for 2003 exceeding 5 million units, mainland China accounted for 12 percent to 14 percent of the worldwide market of 35 million to 40 million satellite receivers last year. The country's overall production during the same period reached more than 6 million units. This year, mainland China makers are blueprinting an increase of 83 percent in production volume and 100 percent in exports. This will translate to 11 million satellite receivers, about 10 million of which will be for shipping overseas. At this export volume, mainland China will take up 22 percent of the forecast worldwide shipment of 45 million satellite receivers. Currently, the mainland has 50 manufacturers of satellite receivers, most of which are export-oriented companies shipping 50 percent to 90 percent of their output. Production is mainly carried out in Guangdong and Fujian provinces, although some large volume manufacturing is also done in Sichuan, Wuhan and Jiangsu provinces. Shenzhen is the center of activity and home to seven of the companies profiled in this report. Meanwhile, Taiwan's satellite receiver market had a rather lackluster performance over recent years. Being largely dependent on OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) The rebranding of equipment and selling it.

Modern decoders are typically compliant with the MPEG-2/DVB-S standard for digital television, while older FTA receivers relied on analog satellite transmissions which have , but there will also be a rising supply of CA and CI receivers, as well as FTA+CI and FTA+CA versions. Next-generation satellite receivers will integrate DVD player A stand-alone device that plays DVDs. It contains a DVD drive and the electronics to decode the digital video. The device may play only manufactured DVDs, or it may be able to play DVD-R, DVD-RW and DVD+RW discs. DVD players are cabled to a TV or home theater system for display. and personal video recorder See DVR. (PVR See DVR. ) functionality. DVB-S See DVB. 2-compliant units may not be available for mass-production by the end of 2004, but makers certainly are looking to develop such products in the near term.
