ABSTRACT:
A broadcasting receiver that receives broadcasting signals transmitted by a broadcasting station accompanying audio signals of multiple languages and automatically selects a certain broadcasting language to be outputted is described here. The receiver is capable of displaying a “Priority Switching Language Registration Menu” on its display in order to set up and register switching of priority languages. A priority language list determined by a user referring to a language list database displayed on the display is stored into a memory together with the maximum number of audio channels set up by the user. A control unit consisting of a CPU acquires a broadcasting language information currently being received referring to a VCT (Virtual Channel Table) acquired by control signal analysis when the receiver is started up or a broadcasting channel is changed by the user, or a broadcasting program is changed, and selects the broadcasting language and the number of audio channels to be outputted by an audio output unit based on the information stored. Thus, the broadcasting language and the number of audio channels most suitable for the user is always automatically selected and decided for the broadcasting languages and the number of audio channels that vary with each broadcasting channel.
