In-Stat Reports Growing MPEG IC Market Finds New Applications.SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. -- With video capture and playback now appearing in previously untapped markets, the 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 IC market has plenty of room for growth, reports In-Stat (http://www.in-stat.com). MPEG IC unit shipments will grow from 649 million in 2006 to 1.6 billion in 2011, the high-tech market research firm says. MPEG video ICs are used in the compression and decompression of video streams in many consumer devices from small mobile handsets to large digital TV sets. "Unit shipments for MPEG-2/4 ASP encoder and decoder ICs will grow slowly if at all in the future as H.264 encoder and decoder ICs experience much higher growth rates Growth Rates The compounded annualized rate of growth of a company's revenues, earnings, dividends, or other figures. Notes: Remember, historically high growth rates don't always mean a high rate of growth looking into the future. ," says Michelle Abraham, In-Stat analyst.
