Embodiment Construction

[0020] Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method and device for displaying an electronic program guide, which can improve the convenience for users to view the electronic program guide.

[0021] Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail by taking the smart TV controlled by the remote controller as an example, with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0022] In the embodiment of the present invention, each program block can be obtained by dividing the programs in each channel according to time periods. A program block includes at least one program, and these programs are respectively called the first program, the second program, the third program...the tail program according to the playing time sequence of the programs. In this way, the first program is the program with the earliest broadcast time in the program block, and the tail program is the program with the latest broadcast time in the program block.

Abstract

The invention provides a method for displaying an EPG user interface when playing a program. The method includes: receiving an input instruction for displaying an EPG user interface; responding to the input instruction, displaying the EPG user interface on the program screen played on the display screen; when the focus is on the first program in the current channel, receiving and playing along the program A direction control instruction in the direction of time arrangement, the first program is displayed in the first program view; in response to the direction control instruction, if it is determined that the first program is not the only program contained in the program block to which it belongs, then in the first A tab view for displaying sub-programs is displayed on the program view, and the focus is moved to the tab view; the program block contains at least one program sorted by program playing time, and the sub-program is in the program block Programs other than said first program. This can solve the problem of empty display of some programs in the EPG user interface.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of EPG, in particular to a method for displaying an EPG user interface when playing a program and an intelligent TV. Background technique [0002] The EPG (electronic program guide, electronic program guide) user interface displayed on the display screen of the smart TV displays channels and broadcasting time two-dimensionally in a matrix form to provide a menu of broadcast programs for the current day and the next few days, providing users with the opportunity to watch TV programs and Enjoy Information Services provides a good navigation mechanism. [0003] Since the duration of the programs of each channel is irregular and the start and end times of the programs are relatively random, the lengths of the programs displayed in the EPG user interface are not equal in the arrangement direction of program playing time. For example, for a program with a relatively short program duration, the length in the direc...
