A remote control (RC) for an audio video display device (AVDD) such as a TV has a special web key which, when pressed, causes the RC to command the TV to upload, the currently presented screen shot (or current audio, or current key words in closed captioning (CC)) to a searching device such as an Internet server, the RC processor, or the TV processor. The searching device executes a search based on images recognized in the screen shot Or audio or key words from the CC. If multiple objects are detected a list of the objects may be presented on the TV display or RC display for selection of one by the viewer. The selected object or sole recognized object is then searched using an Internet search engine and the results returned for display.
