Chinese Digital TV and DVD Markets

Trends and Forecasts for CRT, LCD, Plasma, OLED, HD DVD and Other Emerging TV Technologies in China

The Chinese TV market is facing three dramatic changes: the migration from CRT to flat panel TVs, and the similar moves from analog to digital TV broadcasting and from traditional distribution to networking. Corresponding to these changes are the establishment of Chinese audio and video-related standards, including the high definition code standard, high definition display standard, 3C standard, digital home standard and digital TV broadcasting standard.

The Chinese DVD market has maintained its structure with little change. However the national high definition standard is facing tremendous challenges both domestically and overseas.

In this study, ABI Research studies the changes in Chinese TV and DVD markets and surveys the status of standards evolution. The report also analyzes the strategies of the Chinese vendors and forecasts the future development of a number of technologies and markets.
