Domestic DVD Makers to Join New Criteria Drafting
Domestic DVD player manufacturers will soon join their foreign counterparts to set new criteria for trade and royalties, eastday.com reported today.

"We feel relieved and we will devote ourselves more to researching and developing new DVD player models, said Liu Huiyang, manager with Skyworth Group, one of the leading domestic DVD player makers.

"We have suffered a lot from the royalty issue and we won't sit back and wait for the next criteria to debut," said Fan Wenjian, spokesman with Shinco. "We will try to join the establishing of next DVD criteria with foreign counterparts," Fan said.

Shinco has cooperated with both overseas and domestic partners to develop the next generation of DVD criteria, he said. "I hope China will have its own patent in the new DVD criteria, so we needn't pay the royalty charges any longer," Fan said.

The DVD players sold in the domestic and overseas market so far all belong to the first generation, with 500 lines of definition. New criteria governing the manufacture and sale of DVD players are expected to cover 1,000 lines and to be applicable to the manufacture and sale of digital televisions.
