Digital Broadcast Reception Device
[Object] To provide a digital broadcast reception device capable of improving user-friendliness concerning information acquisition by a user, even when a state in which video of a program cannot be displayed is caused. [Solution] A CPU displays on a screen a message of “unable to receive” when the video of the program cannot be displayed. Furthermore, the CPU extracts program information from PSI/SI which has been acquired during reception of the program, and displays on the screen a broadcast station name, a channel number, a channel title, etc. In addition, if the program information contains URI, that is, a browsing destination of a program Website, the CPU displays a program Website button for selecting the URI. When the user operates the program Website button, an Internet connection process is performed through a PHS data card. As a result, an image based on a received file is displayed on an LCD panel ( 202 ).
