A method of performing a time-shift function and a television receiver using the same facilitates a selective playback of a specific one among a plurality of broadcast programs stored for the time-shift function. The television receiver includes a personal video recorder for enabling a time-shift function by storing in a time-shift storage area at least one broadcast signal received in real time; a system memory for storing broadcast program information extracted from the at least one broadcast signal stored in the personal video recorder; and a display module for displaying a time shift guide for the stored at least one broadcast signal to enable a user selection of one broadcast signal stored in the time-shift storage area. The broadcast program information is stored in the system memory in a table format, and the stored broadcast program information is updated in the system memory according to a system program execution, so that the time shift guide is displayed according to the updated broadcast program information. The television receiver also includes a controller for controlling the personal video recorder to reproduce the selected broadcast signal from a user-specified position in response to the user selection of the one broadcast signal; a user interface for inputting to the controller a command signal according to the user selection; and an OSD generator for generating OSD data for forming the time shift guide under control of the controller according to the command signal from the user interface. |
