Thereafter, the hybrid remote controller 420 can move a preset number of channel information every time the same feature key is pressed once. If there is no input for a predetermined time (for example, 3 to 5 seconds) The channel information can be retransmitted to the smartphone 410. [

 The channel information 11 selected from the hybrid remote controller 420 can be retransmitted to the smartphone 410. [ The hybrid remote controller 420 can update to the correct channel information. At this time, if there is no input value for a predetermined time, the channel information recently inputted to the display of the hybrid remote controller may disappear by considering it as synchronized. The hybrid remote controller may output a message indicating that the channel information has been updated as the specific interface is selected again.

The smartphone 410 may request additional services related to the channel information retransmitted to the server 430 as the channel information is retransmitted from the hybrid remote controller 420 (405, 406). The server 430 may search for an additional service related to the retransmitted channel information and provide it to the smartphone 410 (408). The smartphone 410 may output an additional service related to the retransmitted channel information. At this time, the smartphone 410 is provided with the supplementary service related to the channel information retransmitted from the server 430, and the supplementary service related to the retransmitted channel information may be outputted in synchronization. In other words, the additional service may be output in synchronization with the information output from the output device to the smartphone 410. The smartphone 410 can retransmit the channel information outputting the supplementary service to the hybrid remote controller 420. [

The hybrid remote controller according to an exemplary embodiment can provide a unidirectional broadcast viewer with various contents addition services such as a broadcast homepage, a channel information page, or related videos through an application installed in the terminal based on information of a channel currently being viewed And it is possible to provide a customized supplementary service optimized for the user, thereby assisting the convenience of the user.
