Disclosed herein are an apparatus and a method for automatically setting an external device (100) connected to a digital television (200). The specific region function and user language function are automatically set and controlled in the external device (100) based on data set in the TV using the HDMI CEC protocol. In addition, when a digital versatile disc (DVD) is played, a subtitle is automatically set to the user-set language set in the external device (100). Therefore, there is no need to perform a separate DVD language setting. Furthermore, in the case where a plurality of external devices (HDMI equipment) are connected to the TV in a multi-connection manner, they are automatically set in a CEC operation. Therefore, when a plurality of external devices are installed or released, specific functions do not need to be set one by one for each of the external devices. |
