Abstract: A method and apparatus for browsing a plurality of broadcast programs are provided. The method includes classifying a plurality of broadcast programs into one or more broadcast program groups with reference to electronic program guide (EPG) information or viewing records of a user regarding the broadcast programs, one-dimensionally arranging the broadcast programs so that the broadcast program groups are one-dimensionally arranged, displaying the broadcast programs and the broadcast program groups on a screen as a graphic image, and allowing the user to change a rule used for forming the broadcast program groups. Accordingly, it is possible to enable a user to effectively browse broadcast programs and to provide the user with a user interface customized for the user by using a simple one-dimensional input method and intuitively utilizing EPG information.

Abstract: Provided are a synchronization identifier generating method for synchronizing digital contents and an apparatus for the same. The synchronization identifier generating method includes setting a sampling level that indicates a frequency of sampling digital contents; sampling the digital contents on the basis of the set sampling level; generating a first message digest on the basis of data sampled during the sampling the digital contents; and generating a synchronization identifier including the set sampling level and the first message digest.

Abstract: A method and an apparatus for providing a filtering interface that records and searches for broadcasting content is provided. A method for providing a filtering interface that records and searches for broadcasting content according to exemplary embodiments of the present invention includes analyzing user preferences for each property of the broadcasting content according to play history information of the recorded broadcasting content, generating a properties list by clustering the properties based on the user preferences, receiving a predetermined property from the properties list, extracting broadcasting content that correspond to the received properties from currently-aired or soon-to-be-aired broadcasting content, and providing a list of the extracted content.
