HDTV Technology Review 2007
By Rodolfo La Maestra May 2007
Introduction
As with every year, this report reviews the state of HDTV technology for consumers,
its implementation, industry matters, government affairs, and the industry behind it.
This year, in addition to this report, I have produced a more comprehensive Industry
Edition distributed by Display Search (almost 600 pages). On this Consumer Edition,
I concentrate most of the material on what the readers of the HDTV Magazine
usually devote more interest to: HDTV hardware, especially TVs.
Additionally, to round up the presentation, I provide a brief review of the main
subjects related to DTV. However, due to space considerations, the full coverage of
those subjects, such as digital connectivity, multi-channel audio for HD, content
protection, satellite/cable/broadcast, IPTV, DTV implementation, etc. will be released
in separate editions.
The review includes future products and technologies announced as of May 2007,
with information supplied directly by manufacturers, or gathered at HDTV
conferences, CEDIA, NAB, CEATEC, and the International CES (Consumer Electronics
Show), where the industry also introduce innovations, prototypes, and technology
statements.
If you are looking for a previously released product or technology that is not
mentioned in this report, please consult the other annual reports available at no cost
published by the HDTV Magazine:
http://www.hdtvmagazine.com/reports/hdtv-technology-review.php
These reports also provide a historical background of government mandates,
industry agreements, satellite/cable plans, and descriptions of the technologies
introduced during the covered year, including some previously reported products
that are current to
facilitate reading and
comparison analysis
within the same
document.
2
The group of reports
can be used as a
research tool for past,
present, and future
products and
technologies, and to
analyze the evolution of
HDTV.

When applicable, a brief background is provided to give an historical perspective of a
given subject before getting into the detail of the current year.
Products are mentioned highlighting the month of their introduction and future
availability to provide a perspective of their maturity in the market. CEDIA and CES
announcements are highlighted within each manufacturer.
Most publications show current DTV products with basic specifications and do not
analyze the market to guide consumers to help them make the right choice for their
needs. Hundreds of manufacturers and products are included in this report, with
detailed specifications and features to facilitate comparisons with other models,
brands, and technologies.
However, this report is not only
about products and
technologies, there is abundant
coverage in sections dedicated
to standards, connectivity,
government, IPTV, etc. that
provide a broad picture of the
history and implementation of
HDTV beyond a TV set, unlike
any other publication or book.
From the consumer point of
view, many attend CES to plan
future purchases and maybe
start saving for products that
could be released months or
years later. Some decide to rather buy now a current product because CES helped
confirm that it might not be worth the wait. This report helps consumers making
those choices because of its full coverage of the subject.
3
The report also highlights
industry trends, the adoption
(or abandoning) of H/DTV
technologies, the remarkable
growth of flat panel displays,
the endurance of continued
LCoS support, the 1080p Holy
Grail, the CinemaScope
implementations with new
1080p projectors and
anamorphic lenses, the Hi-
Def DVD format war, the
oversize panel competition, 3-
D, and the ED display
technology in all its varieties
(SED, NED, OLED, FED).
This report assumes that the reader has a basic understanding of H/DTV. Certain
technical information might seem overwhelming to readers that feel the need to

understand the basics first. The Glossary at the end of the report and tutorial
articles at the HDTV Magazine are recommended:
http://www.hdtvmagazine.com/articles/articles-author.php?id=16
All types of H/DTVs and technologies are covered in this report: RPTV (rear
projection TV), FP (front projectors), Direct-view (CRTs, CRPs, etc), Plasmas (PDP),
DLP (Digital Light Processing), LCD (Liquid Crystal Display), LCoS (Liquid Crystal on
Silicon, including JVC’s D-ILA and Sony’s SXRD), and the EDs displays mentioned
above.
This report also reviews DTV
related equipment such as Hi-
Def DVD for playback and
recording, HD tuning set-topboxes
(STB) for small-dish
satellite, digital cable, and
over-the-air (OTA) w/antenna
reception, HD DVRs (Digital
Video Recorders), the
implementation of digital
video connectivity, etc.
The information about
models, prices, and
specifications has been
researched and confirmed
with product demonstrations, lab reviews, press releases, technical material, and
manufacturer interviews at CES and other conferences. Prices are quoted as MSRP
and rounded to facilitate reading and quick comparisons; when unknown, TBA or
TBD is generally used. Product availability is stated as TTM (Time to Market).
As the industry grows in complexity, variety, and number of HD products, the effort
to research, review, analyze, and compare products, added to a full H/DTV coverage
at CES and other HDTV events, and issue final projections, is becoming an
overwhelming task for one person year after year.
4
In the past, many people
referred to this effort as a "CES
report". The truth is: CES is
important but is just one piece of
the industry perspective offered
in this document. Although I
know in advance the
technologies and products
expected to appear at CES, the
show permits me to eyewitness
them and talk to the engineers
that participated in their
development. No press release
or magazine’s new-product page
can provide such transparent
review, a unique and complete

picture of the H/DTV industry.
Additionally, the effort for preserving a broad scope facilitates the linking of all the
HD areas and allows for a deeper analysis and a wider perspective across
manufacturers, technologies, and the industry in general.
Although considerable effort was made to consolidate and verify the correctness of
the data included in the report, I cannot assume responsibility for
omissions or errors.

About the Author
Rodolfo La Maestra is the Senior Technical Director of the HDTV Magazine. Rodolfo
participated in the HDTV vision since the late 1980's when HDTV
was first proposed as an analog system. In the late 1990's, he
begun tracking and reviewing HDTV related technologies and
hundreds of consumer products, which prompted him in 2002 to
pioneer the authoring of the annual HDTV Technology Review
report, which encompasses all HDTVs and related equipment
including Hi-Def DVD, content providers, distribution systems
(broadcast, cable, satellite), government, standards,
connectivity, content protection, H/DTV tuners and DVRs, etc.
Rodolfo considers himself an educator, not a journalist,
transferring knowledge, research, and experience. In addition to this annual
publication, he has authored a variety of tutorials and educative articles for HDTV
Magazine, DVDetc, and HDTVetc Magazines, and served as technical consultant and
editor for the "Reference Guide" and the "HDTV Glossary of Terms" for HDTVetc
Magazine, included in this report and now available for HDTV Magazine readers.
In 2004, to help the public understand the H/DTV complexity, he began recording a
TV technology periodical for Cable television that airs weekly. By 2006, the show
reached the rating of second most viewed by the public among all the technology
episodes. The opening episode at HDTV Magazine Resources:

Rodolfo's background encompasses Electronic Engineering, Computer Science, and
Audio and Video Electronics, over 4,000 hours of professional training, a BS in
Computer and Information Systems, and over thirty professional and post-graduate
diplomas, some from American, George Washington, and MIT Universities.
After 38 years of computer systems career Rodolfo retired in 2003 as Chief of
Systems Development from the Inter-American Development Bank. He directed 65
computer professionals in the areas of information/transactional/web online systems,
database administration, etc. supporting about 30 member countries 24/7.
In parallel, from 1998 he concentrated his personal efforts in helping the public with
his other career of audio/video electronics. Rodolfo started with hi-end audio in the
early 60’s and merged with Home Theater video and multichannel audio technologies
over the past 40 years, such as the niche widescreen laser disc, anamorphic DVD,
16x9 NTSC displays, HDTV, Hi-def DVD, and 2.35:1 CinemaScope HD Home Theater.
When HDTV started airing in November 1998, he was an early adopter of the HDTV
dream he followed since 80’s but realized that the technology as implemented would
overwhelm regular consumers due to its complexity, and it certainly does even
today. Rodolfo then launched his HDTV mission of
educating and helping consumers understand the
complexity, the challenge, and the beauty of the
technology, so the public learns to appreciate
HDTV not just as another television.
