ABSTRACT:
An apparatus, medium, and method for displaying the downloading progress of data on an auxiliary display window when software is downloaded into a digital broadcast receiver (e.g., a set-top box). The apparatus for displaying the downloading progress of data includes a reconstruction unit, which receives broadcast signals from a broadcasting station and reconstructs data from the received broadcast signals, a processing unit, which calculates the downloading progress of the reconstructed data, an auxiliary display unit, which displays the calculation result obtained by the processing unit, and a control unit, which determines whether software to-be-downloaded is included in the reconstructed data, switches a current screen mode of the auxiliary display unit to a download mode if the software is included in the reconstructed data, and controls the auxiliary display unit to display the calculation result obtained by the processing unit.
