Abstract: A broadcast receiving apparatus and a method for performing manual fine tuning (MFT) are provided. The broadcast receiving apparatus includes a signal processor which processes a broadcast signal of a tuned channel; a image generator which generates a manual fine tuning (MFT) image on which an optimal frequency of the tuned channel is to be tuned; a display which displays the MFT image; and a controller which, if a signal requesting adjustment is received, determines whether the broadcast signal is blocked and whether to re-tune the tuned channel using an adjusted optimal frequency based on a result of the blocking determination. The method includes processing a broadcast signal of a tuned channel; receiving a signal requesting adjustment; determining whether the broadcast signal is blocked; and determining whether to re-tune the channel using an adjusted optimal frequency based on a result of the determining.

Abstract: Provided are an information providing method and a broadcast receiving apparatus using the method. According to the information providing method used by the broadcast receiving apparatus, the broadcast receiving apparatus generates a notification message based on a comparison of currently received information to previously received information. Therefore, the broadcast receiving apparatus may receive information from an external source, to inform a user whether the received information is updated.

Abstract: A method for restricting viewing access to a broadcast program, and a broadcast receiving apparatus using the same are provided. The method for restricting viewing access to a broadcast program includes a process of restricting viewing access to a broadcast program based on viewing restriction information set by a user. The broadcast receiving apparatus restricts viewing access to the broadcast program selected by the user through an external apparatus connected with a broadcast receiving apparatus, such that the user can set viewing restriction of broadcast program from a location which is remote from the broadcast receiving apparatus.

Abstract: A broadcast scheduling method and a broadcast receiving apparatus using the method are provided. The broadcast scheduling method includes scheduling recording or viewing of a broadcast program based on schedule information, which is received from an external apparatus, to which broadcast information is transmitted, and is set by a user. Accordingly, the user may set scheduling for the desired broadcast program through the external apparatus, and thus it is possible to set scheduling for the broadcast program based on broadcast information stored in the broadcast receiving apparatus even if there is no broadcast receiving apparatus.
