Abstract

L'invention concerne un boîtier décodeur pour faciliter la sélection d'un programme de diffusion et une commande multi-écran au moyen d'un terminal d'informations portable. Le boîtier décodeur, selon la présente invention, peut fonctionner soit dans un mode à écran unique, soit dans un mode à écrans multiples. Dans le mode à écrans multiples, les signaux d'image de télévision (TV) de programmes de diffusion sur des premier à quatrième canaux sont configurés pour un seul écran, puis décodés en signaux d'image compressés selon des normes de télévision numérique, convertis en signaux selon la norme DLNA, et émis à destination d'une télévision (400). Selon la présente invention, un écran multiple ayant quatre programmes de diffusion configurés en un seul écran est affiché sur une télévision, et des opérations, telles qu'un changement de canaux, peuvent être exécutées par un dispositif de terminal d'informations portable connecté au même réseau local (LAN).
