Abstract

The invention relates to a digital image processing and video displaying technology, solves the problem of poor program changing experience of users in the prior art and provides a program searching method of a digital television set-top box. The technical scheme includes that the digital television set-top box receives information from an NIT (network information table) of a front-end server, the NIT includes private description characters, and the description characters comprise service ID (identity) information, service program package marks and service program frequency points in mutual correspondence. In searching programs, only program information matched with the service program package marks and the service ID information are stored in a program list of the digital television set-top box. The program searching method of the digital television set-top box has the advantages of convenience for users and applicability to the digital television set-top boxes.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of digital image processing and video display, and specifically relates to a program search method for a digital television set-top box.
