Following the news that LG had incorporated PowerVR Rogue into it's new in-house DTV SoC known as H13 for high end TVs, we now learn (courtesy of the excellent Alex Voica of Imagination : http://withimagination.imgtec.com/index.php/powervr/introducing-mediateks-mt6589-mt6577-mt6573-and-other-innovative-solutions-for-smartphones-tablets-and-digital-tvs ) that pretty much the entire range of new LG DTVs will incorporate PowerVR GPUs . The entry-mid range LG TVs are supplied by Mediatek SoCs, incorporating PowerVR graphics. It should be pointed out that LG were previously using ARM Mali graphics (as were Mediatek in their DTV SoCs).
The MStar/Mediatek merger is back on track. This will give the combined entity about 70% of the worldwide DTV market. MStar are also IMG partners , so things look very bright for IMG in the DTV market. The no.2 global supplier will then be long time IMG partner Sigma Designs Inc.
Intel's TV Service (based on IMG graphics) is also making progress it seems:
