Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Industrial field in Icheon] The present invention relates to a television receiver capable of checking programs and the like.

[Conventional technology]

You can usually check TV programs in newspapers, but for programs that span several days and detailed content, it is better to use TV Guide.

[The problem that Teimei tries to solve]

However, this TV guide is a book, and the only way to introduce program content is through text and photographs, which can be inconvenient.

The purpose of the present invention is to provide a television receiver that allows children to check the contents of programs, etc. by directly projecting them on both sides of the television.

[Means to solve the problem]

For this purpose, the present invention provides the television program S. ■A CDROM reading unit that reads out specific data from the data, advertisement data, product catalog data, etc. written in the CDROM, and processes the contents of the data read from the reading unit to play audio, image, etc. on the TV itself. It is now equipped with a data processing unit that allows [Examples] Examples of the present invention will be described below. FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing a schematic configuration of one embodiment. l is C
DROM reading unit, 2 is a data processing unit that processes data read by the CDROM reading device Kl, 3 is a nonvolatile memory for storing data for processing and processing results in the data processing unit 2, 4 is a tuner, CRT, etc. 5 is a system control section consisting of a microcomputer that controls the entire television, and has a clock inside. Reference numeral 6 denotes an operation unit for operating the system control unit 5.

In this example, program classification, program name, program channel, start time and end time, summary, highlights (video/still image),
A CDROM 7 in which audio data and other data are written is prepared in advance.

Then, this CD ROM 7 is loaded into the CD ROM reading section 1, and the operation section 6 is operated to read out a specific portion of the CD ROM 7. This reading is performed by manually inputting a program classification code from the operation unit 6 to search for pre-classified program classifications and read out a specific type of program.

For example, if a news program is searched by manually using the classification code of the news program, the content will be processed by the data processing unit 2, temporarily stored in the internal RAM, and displayed on TV Honkyu 4. (See Figure 3(a)). At this time, two each. The program name, channel, start time and end time, day of the week, etc. of the Z-S program are displayed.

Next, when you specify a specific program name by moving the cursor a using the operation unit 6, the summary, highlights, leading actors (caster names), etc. of the specified program are introduced (see Figure 3). b)). At this time, if you further specify a highlight with the cursor a, it will be introduced in a little more detail as a moving image or still image. Also, even if you specify the lead role (caster name), a detailed introduction will be provided in the same way.

Then, when you actually want to watch this program, you reserve it. This reservation command is performed by operating the bamboo control section 6.

As a result, the contents shown in FIG. 3 (Cl) are displayed on the display section of the television main body 4, and the user is prompted to select new/cancel, so select "new" with cursor a.

As described above, the program name designated by the cursor a in FIG. 3(a), that is, the news program, is stored in the nonvolatile memory 3 using the channel and time (day of the week or date, if necessary) as a reservation code. The program name (in this case, the news program name) can be used as a search code for later confirmation.

Therefore, when the reserved opening time arrives, channel selection is performed according to the reservation code stored in the non-volatile memory 3, and the reserved program is played back on the television main body 4.
The playback will end when the end time arrives. If you specify "Cancel" and enter the classification code on the screen of Figure 3 (Cl), a new program according to that classification will be searched and displayed in the same way as shown in Figure 3 (a). Although we have explained TV programs above, advertising data, product catalog data, etc. can also be written to CDROM and processed in the same way.In this case, you can retrieve specific advertisements, products, etc. by searching. It can be displayed.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to easily search for television programs, advertisements, product catalogs, etc., and it is also possible to obtain more detailed information about specific programs, advertisements, product catalogs, etc. Furthermore, it is also possible to reserve TV programs by program name, etc.

[Brief explanation of drawings]

FIG. 1 is a block diagram of an embodiment of the present invention, FIGS. 2 and 2 are illustrations of reservations, and FIG. 3 is an illustration of a television display in the case of reservations.

Claims (2)

[Claims] (1) A CDROM reading section that reads out specific data from the data written in the CDROM, such as TV program data, advertisement data, product catalog data, etc.; and a CDROM reading section that processes the contents of the data read from the reading section and plays audio on the TV itself. 1. A television receiver comprising: a data processing section that performs image reproduction, etc. (2) The television receiver according to claim 1, wherein the television main body is provided with a nonvolatile memory for storing program reservation data set based on the television program whose image is being reproduced.
