A method for switching a state of a media terminal includes: detecting for an infrared signal emitted by a human body around the multimedia terminal; processing the infrared signal into a trigger signal, inputting the trigger signal into the multimedia terminal, and switching the multimedia terminal from a power-saving state to an operating state according to the trigger signal. Embodiments of the present invention also provide two multimedia terminals. An infrared signal detection unit and an infrared signal processing unit are added to the existing multimedia terminal to make the multimedia terminal have an infrared signal detection function. Once the multimedia terminal detects that a person moves around it, the multimedia terminal automatically switches to the operating state. Embodiments of the present invention can prolong the lifetime of the multimedia terminal, reduce power consumption of the multimedia terminal and upgrade the multimedia terminal.
