Language displaying apparatus for digital TV and method for the same
View Patent ↗A language displaying apparatus for a digital TV and a method for the same notices all kinds of languages included in broadcasting signals and enables a user to recognize them and select the preferable language easily and accurately. To achieve this, the method according to the present invention comprises the steps of abstracting and storing all kinds of languages included in broadcasting signals, displaying the stored kinds of languages or outputting in the form of an audio and outputting the audio signals corresponding to the language selected by the user among the kinds of languages.
1. A language displaying method for a digital TV comprising the steps of:
receiving a transport stream including audio signals in a plurality of languages;
abstracting all kinds of said languages included in the transport stream;
storing abstracts of said kinds of languages; and
displaying the abstracted kinds in the form of OSD (On Screen Display) and outputs in the form of an audio signal so that abstracts of the kinds of languages are heard.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the all kinds of languages are abstracted by parsing Program and System Information Protocol (PSIP) included in the transport stream.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the audio signal is outputted by setting Packet Identifier (PD) of a selected language by a user among the selected kinds of languages.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the kinds of languages are displayed in the form of the OSD so that the user can recognize the kinds of languages.
5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising the step of:
displaying the kinds of languages in the form of OSD and at the same time, in the form of voice.
6. A language displaying method for a digital TV, comprising the steps of:
receiving a broadcasting signal including audio signals in a plurality of languages;
abstracting and storing abstracts of all kinds of said languages included in the broadcasting signal;
displaying the stored kinds of languages; and
outputting an audio signal corresponding to the selected language by a user among the kinds of languages so that abstracts of the kinds of languages are heard.
7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the all kinds of languages are abstracted by parsing Program and System Information Protocol (PSIP) information included in the broadcasting signal.
8. The method of claim 6 , wherein the audio signal is outputted by setting a Packet Identifier (PID) of the language selected by the user.
9. The method of claim 6 , wherein the kinds of languages are displayed in the form of an OSD (On Screen Display) so that the user can recognize the kinds of languages.
10. The method of claim 6 , further comprising the step of:
outputting the kinds of languages in the form of voice.
11. The method of claim 6 , further comprising the step of:
displaying the kinds of languages in the form of the OSD and at the same time, in the form of voice.
12. A language displaying method for a digital TV, comprising the steps of:
receiving a transport stream including audio signals in a plurality of languages;
abstracting and storing abstracts of kinds of said languages by parsing Program and System Information Protocol (PSIP) information included in the transport stream;
outputting the stored kinds of languages so that a user can recognize when he or she selects a language selection menu; and
outputting an audio signal corresponding to the selected language by setting a Packet Identifier (PD) of the selected language if the user selects the language to listen among the above kinds of languages so that abstracts of the kinds of languages are heard.
13. The method of claim 12 , wherein the kinds of languages are displayed in the form of an OSD (On Screen Display).
14. The method of claim 12 , wherein the kinds of languages are outputted in the form of voice.
15. The method of claim 12 , wherein the kinds of languages are displayed with the OSD method and at the same time, outputted in the form of voice.
16. A language displaying apparatus for a digital TV, comprising:
a receiver for a broadcasting signal including audio signals in a plurality of languages;
a language kind abstraction unit for abstracting the kinds of said languages contained in the broadcasting signal;
a microcomputer for outputting a control signal by user's searching for a preferable language among the abstracts of kinds of the abstracted languages according to a user request signal; and
a A/V decoder for outputting the kinds of languages abstracted according to the control signal and an audio signal of the language selected by the user so that abstracts of the kinds of languages are heard.
17. The apparatus of claim 16 , further comprising a memory for storing the kinds of the abstracted language.
18. The apparatus of claim 16 , wherein the language kind abstraction unit abstracts the above kinds of languages by parsing Program and System Information Protocol (PSIP) information contained in the broadcasting signal.
19. The apparatus of claim 16 , wherein the microcomputer displays the kinds of languages with an OSD (On Screen Display) method.
20. The apparatus of claim 16 , wherein the microcomputer outputs the kinds of languages in the form of voice.
21. The apparatus of claim 16 , wherein the microcomputer displays the kinds of languages in the form of the OSD and at the same time, in the form of voice.
22. A language displaying apparatus for a digital TV, comprising:
a receiver for a broadcasting signal including audio signals in a plurality of languages;
a language kind abstraction unit for abstracting the kinds of said languages by parsing Program and System Information Protocol (PSIP) information contained in the broadcasting signal;
a memory for storing abstracts of the kinds of the abstracted languages;
a A/V decoder for outputting the abstracted kinds of languages and outputting the kinds of languages in the form of audio so that abstracts of the kinds of languages are heard; and
a microcomputer for controlling the decoding unit so that when the user researches the preferable language the audio signal of the researched language is outputted.
