Abstract

A television receiver for searching and displaying pictures from multiple TV channels can display at least two parallel screens. Each screen is capable of simultaneously displaying picture signals from first and second tuners. The receiver includes an interface for receiving a signal from a user to begin a channel-search operation. A memory stores the screen mode existing before the channel search command was received. A multi-window view displays a plurality of pictures such that a user can perform the channel search operation to select a desired channel picture signal. After the channel search operation is completed, a controller coupled with the memory automatically returns the display to the original screen mode view at the time the channel search function was requested.
