Abstract
Summary
Real-time broadcast MPEG encoders are used to compress video and audio content
so that less bandwidth is required to transmit the signal. There are many
transitions affecting the market for real-time broadcast MPEG encoders.
Besides analog transmission systems moving to digital, more content is
produced in HD, as opposed to SD. More content transmission platforms are also
using H.264 (MPEG-4 AVC Part 10) instead of MPEG-2. All of these are affecting
each segment of the market: contribution, distribution, and redistribution or
distribution to home.
Overall, the MPEG encoder market will grow in terms of video streams, some
years more dramatically than others. Revenues will grow through 2007 with the
boost provided by one-time events. Declining ASPs will continue to negatively
impact MPEG encoder revenues without large shipment increases to offset them.
This report contains worldwide five-year unit, ASP, and revenue forecasts by
region and compression technology (HD MPEG-2, SD MPEG-2, HD H.264, and SD
H.264) for the contribution, distribution, and redistribution segments of the
real-time broadcast MPEG encoder market. The redistribution segment is further
divided into cable, satellite, mobile, telco, and terrestrial.
