An interpretation unit 112 that interprets resource data, a screen display control unit 113 that controls screen display on the liquid crystal display based on the contents of the resource data interpreted by the interpretation unit 112, and a position of a pointer operated by the input device 14 ( A pointer position detector 114 for detecting a pointer position). The pointer position detection unit 114 functions as a position detection unit.

  For example, the acquisition unit 111 downloads an HTML file, a moving image content, or the like from the Web server 5 and stores the HTML file or the like in the buffer 12. The interpretation unit 112 interprets the contents of HTML data and the like stored in the buffer 12, analyzes the layout of the PC website, and stores it in the buffer 12 again. The pointer position detection unit 114 detects the pointer position operated by the input device 14 as, for example, coordinate information on the screen of the output device 15. For example, the pointer position is detected when the pointer position on the screen of the liquid crystal display is updated.

  The screen display control unit 113 counts the number of moving image contents (hereinafter referred to as “content” as appropriate) included in the screen displayed on the output device 15 and the display area of the content on the screen (hereinafter referred to as “content display area”). ) And a pointer position determination unit 113b for determining whether or not the pointer position detected by the pointer position detection unit 114 is arranged on the content display area. The content determination unit 113a functions as a display area determination unit, and the pointer position determination unit 113b functions as a position determination unit.

  The screen display control unit 113 outputs, to the output device 15, the resource data corresponding to the current screen on the PC website among the resource data whose layout stored in the buffer 12 has been analyzed. Further, the screen display control unit 113 displays the first still image of the content (hereinafter referred to as “initial screen” as appropriate), playback of the content, and the like on the video player 13 according to the determination result of the pointer position determination unit 113b. Alternatively, an instruction to stop playback of the content being played back is given.

  For example, when the content is displayed on the screen but the pointer position is not arranged in the content display area, the screen display control unit 113 instructs the display of the initial screen of the content. Further, when content is displayed on the screen and the pointer position is arranged in the content display area, the reproduction of the content is instructed. Further, when the reproduced content is no longer displayed on the screen, the stop of the content is instructed. Note that instructions from the screen display control unit 113 to the video player 13 will be described later.

  The video player 13 functions as a video playback unit, reads and plays back the content included in the PC website stored in the buffer 12, and outputs the playback data to the output device 15. In addition, the moving image player 13 includes a moving image control unit 131 that controls display of an initial screen of content, reproduction of content, and stop of reproduction of content in accordance with an instruction from the screen display control unit 113. The moving picture control unit 131 controls the display mode of the content based on the content display area and the pointer position on the screen of the output device 15.

  Next, the basic operation when the mobile phone 1 having the above configuration reproduces content included in the PC website will be described. FIG. 3 is a sequence diagram for explaining a basic operation in the case of reproducing content included in the PC website in mobile phone 1 according to the present embodiment. Note that the browser 11 of the mobile phone 1 acquires resource data for browsing the PC website, analyzes the layout, and stores it in the buffer 12 before executing the sequence shown in FIG. And Here, it is assumed that one content is included in the PC website and is displayed on the current screen (a part or all of the PC website displayed on the output device 15).

  In addition, in the mobile phone 1 according to the present embodiment, the HTML file of the PC website other than the content is acquired from the Web server 5 according to a normal method separately from the processing shown in FIG. It shall be displayed. The process shown in FIG. 3 is executed, for example, simultaneously with the display of such an HTML file or subsequent to the display of the HTML file or the like.

  As shown in FIG. 3, when the layout of the website for PC is analyzed and stored in the buffer 12, the display area of the content included in the website for PC is displayed by the screen display control unit 113 (content determination unit 113a). Is determined (step (hereinafter referred to as “ST”) 301). Here, it is assumed that the pointer position operated by the input device 14 is not arranged on the content display area. For this reason, the screen display control unit 113 (pointer position determination unit 113b) sends an instruction to display the initial screen of the content to the video player 13 (ST302). When this display instruction is received, an initial screen of content is displayed on the output device 15 by the video player 13 (video controller 131) (ST303).

  Here, it is assumed that the pointer is operated by the input device 14. When the pointer is operated in this way, the pointer position detection unit 114 detects the update of the pointer position (ST304). Then, the updated pointer position information is sent to the screen display control unit (pointer position determination unit 113b) (ST305).

  When the pointer position information is received, the screen display control unit 113 (pointer position determination unit 113b) determines whether or not the pointer position is placed on the content display area (ST306). Here, it is assumed that the pointer position is arranged on the content display area. For this reason, the screen display control unit 113 (pointer position determination unit 113b) sends a playback instruction for the content to the video player 13 (ST307). When this playback instruction is received, the content is played back on the output device 15 by the video player 13 (video controller 131) (ST308).

  Here, it is assumed that the pointer is operated again by the input device 14. When the pointer is operated in this way, the pointer position detection unit 114 detects again the update of the pointer position (ST309). Then, the updated pointer position information is sent to the screen display control unit (pointer position determination unit 113b) (ST310).

  When the pointer position information is received, the screen display control unit 113 (pointer position determination unit 113b) determines whether or not the pointer position is located on the content display area (ST311). Here, it is assumed that the content is no longer displayed on the screen with the update of the pointer position. For this reason, the screen display control unit 113 (content determination unit 113a) sends an instruction to stop reproduction of the content to the video player 13 (ST312). When this stop instruction is received, the content played back on the output device 15 by the video player 13 (video control unit 131) is stopped (ST313).

  As described above, in the mobile phone 1 according to the present embodiment, the content is displayed on the screen, and the content is reproduced by the video player 14 when the pointer position is arranged on the content display area. Even if the content is displayed on the screen, the video player 14 displays the initial screen without playing it until the pointer position is placed on the content display area. On the other hand, if the content is not displayed on the screen when the content is being reproduced, the reproduction is stopped. Accordingly, the content is displayed on the screen, and the content can be played back only when the user intends to play the content (selected by the pointer).

  Next, detailed operation when the content included in the PC website is reproduced in the mobile phone 1 according to the present embodiment will be described. FIG. 4 to FIG. 6 are flowcharts for explaining detailed operations when the mobile phone 1 according to the present embodiment reproduces content included in the PC website. 4 to 6 show the operation after the content display area is determined in ST301 shown in FIG.

  After the content display area on the PC website is determined, the mobile phone 1 displays the currently displayed screen (that is, a part of the PC website displayed on the output device 15 as shown in FIG. 4). Whether or not the content is displayed on the top (or all) is determined (ST401). Here, when content is displayed on the screen, it is determined whether a plurality of content is displayed (ST402). On the other hand, if the content is not displayed on the screen, this determination process is continued. In the following, a case where one content (content X) is displayed on the screen and a case where a plurality of (here, two) contents (content X, Y) are displayed will be described separately.

  First, a case where one content (content X) is displayed on the screen will be described. Here, a specific example of the PC website and the screen position of the mobile phone 1 when one content (content X) is displayed on the screen will be described. FIG. 7 is a diagram illustrating an example of the relationship between the PC website and the screen position of the mobile phone 1 when one content (content X) is displayed on the screen of the mobile phone 1. As shown in FIG. 7, in the PC website A, a content X display area is arranged in an upper portion thereof. When the screen position S of the mobile phone 1 is arranged at a position including a part of the content X display area, one content X is displayed on the screen of the mobile phone 1.

  When it is determined in ST402 shown in FIG. 4 that one content is displayed on the screen, as shown in FIG. 5, the screen display control unit 113 determines the pointer according to the pointer position information from the pointer position detection unit 114. It is determined whether the position is located on the content X display area (ST501). If the pointer position is located on the content X display area, the video player 13 is instructed to reproduce the content X, and the video player 13 reproduces the content X (ST502).

  On the other hand, if the pointer position is not located on the content X display area, the moving image player 13 is instructed to display the initial screen of the content X, and the moving image player 13 displays the initial screen of the content X (ST503). Then, after displaying the initial screen, the process returns to ST501 to determine again whether the pointer position is placed on the content X display area.

  After reproducing content X in ST502, screen display control section 113 determines whether content X (content X display area) is displayed on the screen (ST504). If content X is displayed, the process returns to ST502 and the reproduction is continued. On the other hand, when content X is not displayed, the reproduction is paused (ST505), and the process returns to ST504. In ST504, when it is detected that the content X is displayed on the screen, the reproduction of the content X is resumed from the stop position. This is intended to prevent the use of memory resources due to the reproduction of content that is not displayed on the screen.

  Here, the state transition of the content X when one content X is displayed on the screen of the mobile phone 1 according to the present embodiment will be described. 8 and 9 are diagrams for explaining state transition of content X when one content X is displayed on the screen of mobile phone 1 according to the present embodiment. 8 and 9, the reproduction state of the content X is represented by enclosing “X” with a triangle, and the reproduction stop state (pause) of the content X is represented by enclosing “X” with a rectangle. Yes.

  8A and 8B show a case where the playback of the content X is started by moving the pointer position from a position outside the content X display area to a position on the content X display area. 8 (c) and 8 (d) show the contents X to be reproduced if the contents X are displayed on the screen after the contents X are reproduced, regardless of the pointer position. Yes. These state transitions are realized by proceeding in the order of ST401 and ST402 shown in FIG. 4 and ST501, ST502, ST504 and ST502 shown in FIG.

  Thus, in the mobile phone 1 according to the present embodiment, after the content X is reproduced, if the content X is displayed on the screen, the reproduction is continued regardless of the pointer position. It is possible to continuously reproduce the moving image content intended for reproduction by the user.

  On the other hand, in FIGS. 9A and 9B, the same processing as in FIGS. 8A and 8B is shown. 9C and 9D, after the content X is reproduced, if the content X is displayed on the screen, the reproduction of the content X is continued, while the content X is not displayed on the screen. The content that the reproduction of the content X is stopped is shown. Furthermore, FIG. 9 (e) shows the content X being resumed when the content X is displayed again on the screen after the reproduction of the content X is stopped. These state transitions are realized by advancing the processing in the order of ST401 and ST402 shown in FIG. 4 and ST501, ST502, ST504, ST505, ST504 and ST502 shown in FIG.

  As described above, in the mobile phone 1 according to the present embodiment, after the content X is reproduced, when the content X is not displayed on the screen, the reproduction is stopped. It is possible to prevent the situation where the limited memory resources are used by reproducing the content X until no longer displayed. Since the reproduction of the content X is resumed when the content X is displayed, the content X can be continuously reproduced regardless of the viewing position of the user on the PC website. Further, the content X is reproduced from the position where it was stopped. Therefore, the user can view the content X continuously.

  8A and 9A show the case where the pointer position is arranged outside the content X display area. For this reason, the initial screen of the content X is displayed in the content X display area. This state transition is realized by advancing the processing in the order of ST401 and ST402 shown in FIG. 4 and ST501 and ST503 shown in FIG.

  As described above, in the mobile phone 1 according to the present embodiment, since the content X is not reproduced until the pointer position is arranged in the content X display area, the mobile phone 1 is independent of the user's intention. It is possible to prevent a situation in which the memory resource is used. In addition, since the initial screen of the moving image content is displayed, the user can be notified of the content of the moving image content, and the reproduction thereof can be evoked.

  By the way, in the mobile phone 1 according to the present embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 8B, 8C, 9B, and 9C, the pointer position is inside or outside the content X display area. Thus, the display mode of the pointer is changed. Here, the pointer is a white arrow when placed outside the content X display area, and a black arrow when placed inside. By changing the display mode of the pointer in this way, the user can easily identify whether or not the pointer position is on the content X display area.

  Next, a case where a plurality of (here, two) contents (contents X and Y) are displayed will be described. Here, a specific example of the PC website and the screen position of the mobile phone 1 when two contents (contents X and Y) are displayed on the screen will be described. FIG. 10 is a diagram illustrating an example of the relationship between the PC website and the screen position of the mobile phone 1 when two contents (contents X and Y) are displayed on the screen of the mobile phone 1. As shown in FIG. 10, in the PC website B, the content X display area is arranged in the upper part, and the content Y display area is arranged in the lower part and the left part. When the screen position S of the mobile phone 1 is arranged at a position including a part of the content X display area and a part of the content Y display area, two contents X and content Y are displayed on the screen of the mobile phone 1. Is displayed.

  When it is determined in ST402 shown in FIG. 4 that a plurality of (here, two) contents (contents X and Y) are displayed on the screen, the screen display control unit 113 displays the pointer position from the pointer position detection unit 114. It is determined whether the pointer position is arranged on the content X display area according to the information (ST403). Here, when the pointer position is located on the content X display area, the video player 13 is instructed to reproduce the content X and the initial screen of the content Y, and the video player 13 reproduces the content X. The initial screen of content Y is displayed (ST404).

  On the other hand, if the pointer position is not located on the content X display area, it is determined whether the pointer position is located on the content Y display area (ST405). If the pointer position is located on the content Y display area, the process proceeds to ST601 shown in FIG. The processing after ST601 will be described later. On the other hand, when the pointer position is not placed on the content Y display area, the moving image player 13 is instructed to display the initial screen of the contents X and Y, and the moving image player 13 displays the initial screen of the contents X and Y. (ST406).

  After reproducing content X in ST404, screen display control section 113 determines whether content X is displayed on the screen (ST407). If content X is displayed, it is determined whether the pointer position is located on the content X display area (ST408). If the pointer position is located on the content X display area, the process returns to ST404 and the reproduction is continued. On the other hand, if not positioned on the content X display area, it is determined whether the pointer position is positioned on the content Y display area (ST409). If the pointer position is not located on the content Y display area, the process returns to ST404 and the reproduction of the content X is continued.

  On the other hand, when the pointer position is arranged on the content Y display area, the video player 13 is instructed to play the content Y and display the initial screen of the content X, and the video player 13 plays the content Y. The initial screen of content X is displayed (ST410). In ST410, after playing content Y, screen display control section 113 shifts the processing to ST602 shown in FIG. 6, and determines the display of content Y on the screen.

  In ST407, if content X is not displayed on the screen, it is determined whether the pointer position is placed on the content Y display area (ST411). If the pointer position is located on the content Y display area, the process proceeds to ST410, where the content Y is reproduced by the video player 13, while the initial screen of the content X is displayed. On the other hand, if the pointer position is not located on the content Y display area, playback of content X is paused (ST412), and the process returns to ST407. In ST407, when it is detected that the content X is displayed on the screen, the reproduction of the content X is resumed from the stop position through the determination of ST408 and ST409.

  Also, in ST405, when the pointer position is placed on the content Y display area, as shown in FIG. 6, the video player 13 is instructed to play the content Y and display the initial screen of the content X. While the content Y is reproduced by the player 13, the initial screen of the content X is displayed (ST601).

  Then, after reproducing the content Y, the screen display control unit 113 determines whether the content Y is displayed on the screen (ST602). If content Y is displayed, it is determined whether the pointer position is located on the content Y display area (ST603). If the pointer position is located on the content Y display area, the process returns to ST601 and the reproduction is continued. On the other hand, if not positioned on the content Y display area, it is determined whether the pointer position is positioned on the content X display area (ST604).
