Abstract
Embodiments of the disclosure provide a method and apparatus for controlling a startup bootstrap program of an intelligent TV set, and relate to the field of an embedded system so as to shorten a period of time for startup boot while initializing a screen normally. In the disclosure, after a system is powered on, a first task of initializing a screen in a startup bootstrap program is executed, and the length of preset time required for executing the first task is obtained, wherein the startup bootstrap program is a bootstrap program for initializing pieces of software/hardware of the system; executing a second initialization task unrelated to initializing the screen in the startup bootstrap program is executed while the first task is being executed, thus addressing the problem in the related art.
