ABSTRACT:
An electronic program guide display device includes a remote control input analyzing part analyzing a key-input from a remote control unit, a time converting part converting the key-input analyzed by the remote control input analyzing part into a time, and a display area calculating part calculating a display area for a two-dimensional program table based on the time converted by the time converting part. The electronic program guide display device also includes a program guide forming part forming a two-dimensional program table in the display area calculated by the display area calculating part, so as to allow a desired program to be browsed by a short-time operation.
