Abstract

A display of “scroll up by 1 hour” is overlaid on sections of station name of a program schedule Fa1 when an up arrow key of a cross key provided to a remote commander is operated when a cursor K is on the upper border of a program frame, and when there is any preceding program (past program) not currently displayed in the program schedule Fa1. Then when an enter key provided to the remote commander is operated, the 1-hour-scrolled-up program schedule Fa1 is responsively displayed after reconfiguration. In such a manner, the display range of the program schedule can be changed with ease, and the present invention is applicable to television receivers for digital broadcasting.
