The present invention provides an information display device including an imaging unit that executes an imaging process to image a subject to output an imaging signal; a monitor capable of displaying an image of the subject based on the imaging signal; a switching part located near the monitor; a first display controller for displaying, in a menu on the monitor, each of a first group of items consisting of a plurality of items associated with the imaging process, whereby first setting data can be set; and a second display controller for displaying, in a menu on the monitor, each of a second group of items associated with a plurality of particular items in the first group and having fewer items than the first group, whereby second setting data can be set, wherein switching between the first and second display controllers is performed by operating the switching part.

Information display device

An Internet information displaying apparatus comprising character signal generating means for generating a character signal and displaying it on the screen of the displaying means, and character signal generation controlling means for detecting the state of transmission and reception of digital data of the digital data transmitting and receiving means, and controlling the character signal generating means so as to generate a character signal to indicate the transmission or reception state. The state of transmission or reception of the digital data of the digital data transmitting and receiving means, in other words, the state of connection to the provider is displayed on the screen.

Internet information displaying apparatus and internet information displaying method

Digital camera

A digital television receiver includes a CS receive circuit (). This CS receive circuit receives a digital television broadcast signal. The digital television broadcast signal contains video data from which first video data is created as well as EPG data from which second video data is created. First and second video compression circuits () respectively compress first and second video data and output first and second compression video signals. The first and second compression video signals are composited together by a video compositing circuit (). Consequently, on the monitor () are displayed EPG and broadcast video picture in a 2-screens form.

Digital television receiver for receiving a digital television broadcast signal and simultaneously displaying a video picture and information contained therein

A television including a CS digital circuit to receive a CS digital television broadcast signal. A micom circuit detects a broadcast mode of the digital television broadcast. Where the broadcast mode is in a first mode, or usual broadcast mode, the power supply to a video output section and audio output section, for example, is turned on to output video images and sound respectively through a CRT and a speaker. Also, where the broadcast mode is in a second mode, or radio broadcast mode, the power supply to the video output section is turned off. Where the broadcast mode is in a third mode, or data broadcast mode, the power supply to both the image output section and the audio output section is turned off.

Television receiver

The present invention relates to a television receiver capable of receiving at least digital satellite broadcasting such as CS broadcasting. The television receiver according to the present invention comprises first means for displaying a plurality of program guides in a matrix shape on a display device utilizing one of the horizontal axis and the vertical axis as a channel number axis and utilizing the other axis as a time axis, and second means for displaying air times for the program guides displayed on the display device in the shape of a bar graph that is long along the time axis.

Internet information displaying apparatus and internet information

A program guide display controller at a user terminal of a television broadcasting system in which a user can enter a program guide display command for displaying a program guide on a display device, and the user can set contents for restricting the program guide displayed on the display device. A memory is provided for storing the restricting contents set by the user. A display control is provided for displaying a program guide adapted to the restricting contents stored in the memory on the display device when the program guide display command is entered by the user.
