An interceptor detects command signals from a TV remote control and logs the signals. The signals can be correlated not just to channel number but also to programs by accessing a program/channel database. A log of channels/programs that have been viewed by, e.g., a child can thus be obtained and viewed by a parent.

A system and method are provided for triggering a demonstration mode of a display device. In one embodiment, a process includes displaying data received by a first input of the display device, monitoring a broadcast channel by the display device, and detecting a triggering signal in the broadcast channel. The process may also include displaying a demonstration based on detection of the triggering signal. Once the demonstration is complete, data received by the first input may be displayed.

An antenna unit for a TV. The antenna unit, which can be roof-mounted, includes a tuner and a demodulator so that it outputs a baseband signal containing IP packets representing a TV signal, requiring only a twisted pair Ethernet-type connection between the antenna unit and TV.

Backlighting lamps in an LCD are extinguished when they are in regions beyond the area of the demanded image produced by an associated LCD cell matrix that overlays the lamps. In some cases the size of the demanded image may be reduced according to a user-input energy savings mode and then lamps beyond the image region are extinguished. Energy savings are realized.

The present invention makes viewers surely view commercial programs.When a commercial program is broadcasted and displayed on a display (7A), a viewer is requested a response. The viewer operates a prescribed key in the ten key (32) of a remote controller (31) for response. If the viewer responds to the response request of the commercial program, points are added to a smart card (10). The viewer can view a pay program using the points recorded in the smart card (10).

System and method for changing a current input terminal of a user device. In one embodiment of the invention, a method includes receiving an input terminal change request, requesting that a current input terminal be changed from a first input terminal to a second input terminal. The method may further include determining if an external device is connected to the second input terminal. In one embodiment of the invention, the second input terminal includes a connection detection switch. The method may also include switching to the second input terminal when the connection detection switch indicates an external device connection and skipping the second input terminal when the connection detection switch indicates no external device connected according to one embodiment of the invention.

Preferred format parameters including timing that is contained in an extended display information data (EDID) EEPROM in a digital video display system can be dynamically established by a user. In this way, when the video display system engages a source of video in a “plug and play” context, instead of communicating to the source what formats are supported and then accepting a format selected by the source, the preferred format is sent from the EEPROM to the source so that the video display system receives video from the source in the user-desired format.
