Abstract
A display device includes a signal receiver connecting with one among a plurality of source devices, and configured to receive a content signal from the connected source device. A display is configured to display an image based on a content signal received through the signal receiver. A processor is configured to acquire time information corresponding to a time from a point of connecting with the source device to a point of displaying an image when the source device is connected to the signal receiver, and to control the display to display a user interface (UI) to indicate a connected state based on the acquired time information.
Claims17
A display device comprising:
- a signal receiver configured to selectively connect with each of a plurality of external source devices, and configured to receive a content signal from the connected source device;
- a display configured to display an image based on the content signal received by the signal receiver;
- and
- a processor configured to:
- acquire time information of the connected source device among the plurality of external source devices, the time information indicating a time from a point of the signal receiver being connected to the connected source device to a point of displaying the image corresponding to the content signal received by the signal receiver and being different from the time information for another of the plurality of source devices, and
- control the display to display a user interface (UI) to indicate a connected state after the signal receiver is connected to the connected source device, based on the acquired time information,
- wherein the processor is further configured to control the display to display the user interface for a period of time up to a point of receiving a preset signal, and change information provided on the user interface in accordance with whether the preset signal is received at a receiving point designated in the acquired time information.
A method of controlling a display device, the method comprising:
- selectively connecting with each of a plurality of external source devices;
- acquiring time information of the connected source device among the plurality of external source devices, the time information indicating a time from a point of the connecting with the connected source device to a point of the display device displaying an image and being different from the time information for another of the plurality of source devices;
- displaying a user interface (UI) to indicate a connected state after the display device is connected to the connected source device based on the acquired time information;
- and
- displaying the image based on a content signal in response to the content signal being output from the connected source device,
- wherein the displaying of the user interface comprises displaying the user interface for a period of time up to a point of receiving a preset signal, and changing information provided on the user interface in accordance with whether the preset signal is received at a receiving point designated in the acquired time information.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium recording instructions for execution by a processor of an apparatus to cause the apparatus to perform operations comprising:
- selectively connecting with each of a plurality of external source devices;
- acquiring time information of the connected source device among the plurality of external source devices, the time information indicating a time from a point of the connecting with the connected source device to a point of displaying an image and being different from the time information for another of the plurality of source devices;
- displaying a user interface (UI) to indicate a connected state after the apparatus is connected to the connected source device based on the acquired time information;
- and
- displaying an image based on a content signal in response to the content signal being output from the connected source device,
- wherein the displaying of the user interface comprises displaying the user interface for a period of time up to a point of receiving a preset signal, and changing information provided on the user interface in accordance with whether the preset signal is received at a receiving point designated in the acquired time information.
