The invention provides a
display device and a live program searching method. After a
display device opens a live broadcast application, if a user wants to quickly search for an interested live broadcast program, a program search instruction can be input into the
display device, and specified information needing to be matched with the program to be searched is indicated. And the display device responds to the program search instruction and can automatically call the
intelligent agent, so that the target live channel conforming to the specified information can be screened out through the
intelligent agent based on the channel information of the live channel provided by the live application and the program information of the live program corresponding to the live channel. Therefore, the display device can generate the corresponding target channel
list based on the target live channels, and the user can search the interested live program in the target channel
list, so that the search range of the user can be greatly reduced, the provided live program can meet the real-time requirement of the user, and the user experience is improved. The efficiency and the accuracy of searching the live program by the user can be effectively improved.
