Abstract:
A method for providing Graphical User Interface (GUI) for selecting a broadcast channel, and a broadcast receiving apparatus having the same are provided. The GUI for selecting a broadcast channel includes a keypad having a pointer to be moved by manipulation of a user on a remote control apparatus and keys selectable by the pointer, and then the user is able to input a preferred broadcast channel by using the keypad and the pointer. Accordingly, the user is able to input a preferred broadcast channel without using the number keys, so the number keys may be omitted in the remote control apparatus. As a result, miniaturization of the remote control apparatus is possible.
Abstract:
A method for scheduling a broadcast is provided. The method includes receiving and outputting a broadcast program, when an event which stops an output of the broadcast program occurs while the broadcast program has not been completed, receiving a user command to watch the broadcast program continuously later, when the user command is received, storing information regarding the broadcast program, and outputting portions of the broadcast program which have not been output continuously using the stored broadcast program information.
Abstract:
An electronic device including a display, a receiver to receive, from an input device, a first information about a movement of the input device and a second information indicating whether a predetermined button on the input device is pressed, and a controller to control the display to display a plurality of visual guide items representing a plurality of functions of the electronic device for guide a user how to move the input device to select a function among the plurality of functions, determine a movement direction of a pointing position while the predetermined button of the input device is pressed based on the first and the second information, detecting whether the predetermined button is released based on the second information and in response to the detecting that the predetermined button is released, executing a function among the plurality of functions based on the movement direction of the pointing position and displaying a visual guide item among the plurality of visual guide items corresponding to the executed function in a highlight state.
Abstract:
A display apparatus and a method for scheduling a broadcast using the same. The broadcast scheduling method includes generating a program information table, in which broadcast information is arranged, if a broadcast program selected by a user in the program information table is moved into an area adjacent to an icon, displaying the broadcast program being added to an item folder, and scheduling the broadcast program.
Abstract:
A multimedia content searching apparatus includes: an image receiving unit that receives an image having additional information from an external device; an additional information reading unit that reads the additional information from the image received from the image receiving unit; a multimedia content searching unit that recommends a multimedia content to a user by searching for the multimedia content which is related to the additional information using the additional information read by the additional information reading unit; and an information comparing unit that compares the additional information read by the additional information reading unit with multimedia content information provided from a content provider, and the multimedia content searching unit searches for the multimedia content related to the additional information based on the result of the comparison by the information comparing unit.

Abstract:
A method for providing a Graphical User Interface (GUI) for changing a reproducing time point, and an imaging apparatus incorporating the same are provided. The GUI for changing a reproducing time point displays reduction images of specific time points within a time period including a specific time point selected by a pointer, and changes the reproducing time point to the time point represented by the reduction image selected from the displayed reduction images. Accordingly, a user is able to search for a desired time point without going through a plurality of manipulations to change the reproducing time point on the progress bar using the pointer.
Abstract:
Exemplary embodiments may disclose a server including: a communicator configured to communicate with an external apparatus; a storage unit configured to store medicine prescription information about a user; and a controller configured to generate temporary medicine prescription information for providing medicine to the user based on the medicine prescription information if a medicine-taking completion message is not received, and control the communicator to transmit the temporary medicine prescription information to the external apparatus.
Abstract:
A method for executing a user command in a display device including receiving, from an input device, a signal that indicates a movement direction of the input device, determining the movement direction of the input device based on the received signal, determining one of a plurality of functions of the display device that corresponds to the movement direction from among the plurality of functions of the display device, and executing the determined function.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for displaying a contents list. The method includes: displaying a loading image on a loading region to display a thumbnail image before the thumbnail image is displayed, animating the loading image displayed in the loading region such that a center coordinate of the loading image is maintained; and displaying the thumbnail image in the loading region, by substituting the loading image with the thumbnail image. The loading image represents a state in which the thumbnail image is loading, the animating the loading image comprises pivoting the loading image by a preset degree of an angle, and the pivoting the loading image by the preset degree of the angle comprises displaying a plurality of loading images by differentiating pivoting speeds of the plurality of loading images.
