Abstract

This application provides a TV screenshot method and an associated television (TV). The method includes: upon receiving a screenshot request, acquiring a layer range of On Screen Display (OSD) sub-layers corresponding to windows of every application displayed on an OSD layer; and generating the screenshot image by taking a snap shot of the OSD sub-layers in the layer range. This application can prevent unwanted system notification information image from being captured when a snap shot is taken.
