A program-display control apparatus can display information on each of a
plurality of programs in a state that can be recognized by the user with
ease without regard to the display configuration of the display data of
the program. A display-configuration modification unit changes the
display configurations of the program table of a BS digital broadcast,
the program table of a ground wave broadcast, and a WEB program table
into a new display configuration which increases the amount of
information on the programs without regard to the display configuration
of each of the programs. Furthermore, a program-table creation unit
creates display data according to the new display configuration and
outputs the display data.
