Abstract

The invention discloses a method and device for presenting an electronic program guide (EPG). The method and the device are used for overcoming the defect that users inconveniently select programs according to content due to the EPG in the prior art. The method comprises the following steps of: classifying EPG information according to program classes, and obtaining at least two EPG classes; and presenting the at least two EPG classes, information on at least one program below a first EPG class of the at least two EPG classes, and identity information of a first program of the at least one program in an EPG display screen. According to the method and device for presenting the EPG, disclosed by the embodiments of the invention, the content is taken as a main line, and television programs played recently are presented according to content classification and a time sequence, so that the users can conveniently select right time to watch.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to digital television, in particular to a method and device for presenting an Electronic Program Guide (EPG). Background technique [0002] With the popularization of digital TV, users increasingly use electronic program guide (EPG) to choose to watch or reserve programs, which makes EPG more and more important. At present, the presentation of EPG is based on the channel as the main line, and it is mainly presented to the user in the form of a two-dimensional table (channel, time). [0003] In the process of realizing the present invention, the inventors of the present invention have found that the prior art has at least the following technical defects: [0004] As there are more and more TV channels, the way of presenting the EPG in the form of a two-dimensional table makes the content of the two-dimensional table more and more, and it becomes more and more difficult for users to quickly find useful information from the ...
