Abstract

L'invention concerne une télévision (1) qui divise un écran d'affichage en une pluralité d'écrans de division et affiche des contenus différents sur les écrans de division. Dans la télévision (1), une unité (14) de sélection de contenu sélectionne un contenu prédéfini pour chacun des écrans de division. Une unité (11) d'affichage affiche un contenu sélectionné sur l'écran de division correspondant de l'affichage (2). Par exemple, un programme télévisé est affiché sur des écrans de division et une page Web contenant des informations associées au programme télévisé est affichée sur l'autre écran de division. Lorsqu'un mode d'écran (disposition des écrans de division) est modifié, le contenu correspondant au mode d'écran est sélectionné et affiché. Ainsi, il est possible d'afficher un contenu sur chacun des écrans de division dans des conditions optimales.
