Abstract: A broadcast data display method for a digital broadcast receiver is provided. In response to a broadcast reception request from a user, a channel list having identifiers of available channels is displayed. Broadcast data of a channel selected by the user from the channel list is displayed on a screen in a full-screen mode. In response to a request of all-channel view during channel list display or broadcast reception, the screen is divided into display areas corresponding to the individual available channels of the channel list. Real-time broadcast data of the selected channel is displayed in a corresponding display area of the screen. Still images of the remaining channels are displayed simultaneously or sequentially in their corresponding display areas.

Abstract: A digital broadcast receiver and broadcast data display method enabling simultaneous display of multi-channel visual images are disclosed. The broadcast data display method includes receiving digital broadcast data on a plurality of channels; simultaneously outputting on a single screen real-time broadcast data of a selected channel and still images of the remaining channels; and periodically updating the still images of the remaining channels. Thereby, up-to-date multi-channel visual images are simultaneously output. Hence, the user can easily perform channel selection and channel switching.
