  • Patent number: 7265797
    Abstract: An integrated digital television for both analog and digital broadcasting can decide in accordance with a selection made by a user whether to receive the analog broadcasting signal. The integrated digital television provides menus through an option setting unit to select whether to search the frequency bandwidths where the analog broadcasting signals are transmitted, and if a selection is made on the menus for an item of ‘no-search’ for the frequency bandwidths of the analog broadcasting signals, the integrated digital television searches only the frequency bandwidths at which the digital broadcasting signals are transmitted. As a result, storing and shifting channels can be performed efficiently.
