For purpose of the present invention, structural feature and function thereof are had further understanding, conjunction with figs. is described in detail as follows now:
[description of drawings]
Fig. 1 is of the present invention by television channel is classified with the system architecture diagram of fast searching channel.
Fig. 2 is of the present invention by television channel is classified with the method flow diagram of fast searching channel.
Fig. 3 A, Fig. 3 B pass through the embodiment schematic diagram of television channel classification with the fast searching channel for the present invention.
[embodiment]
See also Fig. 1, pass through the system architecture diagram of television channel classification for of the present invention with the fast searching channel, be applied to the television channel playing device, as television set, by all television channels being put into different categories to help the user can find the channel of desiring to watch faster, for example, be divided into mother according to the kinsfolk, father, child likes classification separately, or be divided into sport category according to program character, the music class, film class or the like classification, wherein each television channel has an original channel number and an original channel title respectively, for example, " European Tour channel " is the original channel title, and its original channel number is set at " 19 ", and this system includes editor module 120, input module 110, handover module 130 and display module 140.
