ABSTRACT:
When a prescribed application such as a TV application, etc., is activated by using a general-purpose OS, an application activation device can inform a user of the fact that it is now in preparation for activation of the application, so as to avoid inducing the user to become uneasy during his or her waiting. The device includes an activation event input section (1) for inputting an activation event for the TV application in either of plural power supply states of a computer when the TV application is activated from either of a power off state, a hibernation state and a standby state of the computer, an activation event detection section (2) for detecting an input activation event, and an activation preparation state indicating section (3A) for indicating, during the time from when an activation event has been detected until when the TV application is activated, that the TV application is in preparation for being activated.
