Patent ID: 8356318

Claim:
A terminal comprising: a wireless communication unit configured to receive broadcast guide information; a control unit configured to determine whether or not broadcast information included in the received broadcast guide information corresponds to an actual broadcast operation for a corresponding broadcast program, and to update the broadcast guide information when the broadcast information included in the received broadcast guide information does not correspond to the actual broadcast operation for the corresponding broadcast program, wherein the control unit determines whether or not the broadcast information included in the received broadcast guide information corresponds to the actual broadcast operation for the corresponding broadcast program by comparing received start and end time information of the corresponding broadcast program with start and end time information of the actual broadcast operation for the corresponding broadcast program, wherein, when a first broadcast program is currently being broadcast and displayed on a display unit of the terminal and a second broadcast program is set to be sequentially broadcasted, and the first broadcast program is to be extended past an original end time such that an actual end time of the first broadcast program is later than a start time of the second broadcast program, the control unit is further configured to update the actual end time of the first broadcast program and update actual start and end times of the second broadcast program based on the updated end time of the first broadcast program within the updated broadcast guide information, wherein the control unit is further configured to update the broadcast guide information by: a) first displaying modified broadcast guide information including the first and second broadcast programs with a modification interval between the first and second broadcast programs, said modification interval including an arrow indicating a direction of the modification of the first broadcast program and in which a length of the arrow indicates an amount of time the first broadcast program is pass the original end time, and b) second displaying updated modified broadcast guide information in which the arrow within the modification interval is replaced with another indication indicating the modified broadcast guide information has been updated.
