Disclosed herein is a device and method for displaying channel information
in a digital broadcasting receiver. A broadcasting receiver receives and
demodulates a digital broadcasting signal of a selected channel. A data
processor demultiplexes the demodulated broadcasting signal, separates
Electronic Program Guide (EPG) data and broadcasting data, and decodes
the broadcasting data. A controller controls an operation for analyzing
the EPG data, generating summary information on a service
channel-by-service channel basis, generating summary information of
programs of service channels, generating structured EPG data, and
displaying the EPG data or the structured EPG data in response to a
user's selection when a channel information display request is made. A
memory stores the EPG data and the structured EPG data under control of
the controller. A display unit displays the EPG data or the structured
EPG data in channel information.
