In the case of reproduction, the image is displayed on the image display unit 28 in accordance with a display control program executed by the system control circuit 50. Further, in the DVC 100, when the reproduction of the moving image file is interrupted, the position of the image frame at the time of interruption is stored in the memory circuit 52, for example. This position is called the resume position. As is well known, the DVC 100 has a function of reproducing a moving image file from the position of the stored image frame when attempting to reproduce the same moving image file. The so-called resume function is a generally known technique.

  FIG. 2 is a flowchart for explaining the operation of a reproduction method for reproducing a plurality of moving image files one by one in accordance with a display control program executed by the system control circuit 50.

In the flowchart of FIG. 2, the processing is started when a “moving image file feed button” provided in the operation unit 70 is pressed. First, in step S201, it is determined whether the moving image file continuous sending mode in which moving image files are continuously sent or the moving image file individual sending mode in which moving image files are sent one by one. Then, when the a moving picture file continuous feed mode proceeds to step S202, it reproduces the cash Hyoga image data of the moving image file, and displays on the image display unit 28.

The moving image file continuous feed mode is set, for example, by continuously pressing the “moving image file feed button” even when the next moving image file is displayed. In step S203, it is detected whether or not the “moving image file sending button” is pressed, and if it is detected that the “moving image file sending button” is pressed, it is still in the moving image file continuous sending mode. to decide. Then, the process returns to step S202, reproduces the cash Hyoga image data of the next moving image file, and displays on the image display unit 28.

  On the other hand, if it is detected in step S203 that the “moving image file feed button” has not been pressed, it is determined that the moving image file continuous feed mode has been canceled. In step S204, the moving image data (frame) at the resume position of the moving image file in which the representative image data is displayed in the previous step S202 is reproduced and displayed on the image display unit 28.

  Thereafter, in step S208, it is detected whether or not the “moving image file sending button” is pressed. If it is detected that the button is pressed, the process returns to step S201, and the processing described above is repeated. However, if it is detected that the button is not pressed, the process proceeds to step S209.

  If it is not determined in the previous step S201 that the moving image file continuous feed mode is set, the process proceeds to step S205 to determine whether or not the current image file is a moving image file. If it is a moving image file at this time, the process proceeds to step S206, where the moving image data of the frame at the resume position of the moving image file is reproduced as a still image and displayed on the image display unit 28. However, if it is determined in step S205 that it is still image data, the corresponding still image data is reproduced and displayed on the image display unit 28.

  Thereafter, the process proceeds to step S208, and it is detected whether or not the “moving image file sending button” is pressed. If pressing of the “moving image file sending button” is detected here, the process returns to step S201, and the processing described above is repeated. However, if it is not detected in step S208 that the “moving image file sending button” has been pressed, the process proceeds to step S209. At this time, if the image data being reproduced is a moving image file, the moving image frame at the resume position of the moving image file set in step S206 is being reproduced.

  If an instruction to reproduce a moving image file is issued in step S209, the moving image file is reproduced from the image frame at the resume position of the moving image file and displayed on the image display unit 28. This moving image file playback instruction is also input by a playback button provided on the operation unit 70. However, if the moving image data reproduction instruction has not been given, the process returns to step S208, and the process described above is repeated.

  FIG. 3 shows the structure of a moving image file. The moving image file is composed of representative image information and a moving image file body. The representative image information includes thumbnail image (first frame image) data 301 that is a representative image, moving image information 302 including vertical and horizontal pixels of moving image data, frame rate information, and the like, and resume information 303. The moving image data 304 itself is stored in the moving image file body.

  FIG. 4 is a flowchart for explaining the reproduction operation using the resume information in accordance with the display control program executed by the system control circuit 50. After the start of the process, first, in step S402, it is confirmed from the moving image file whether there is the resume information 303 of FIG. If there is no resume information 303, the process proceeds to step S404, and the thumbnail image data 301, which is representative image data, is reproduced. However, if there is the resume information 303, the process proceeds to step S402, and the frame image data at the resume position is searched from the moving image data 304 with reference to the resume information 303 and the moving image information 302 of the moving image file. In step S403, the retrieved frame image data is reproduced and displayed on the image display unit 28.

  In the embodiment described above, the frame image data at the resume position is displayed when the moving image file continuous feed mode is stopped. However, when the moving image file continuous feed mode is stopped, the representative image data of the moving image file at the time of stopping can be displayed. When a user instruction is given, a moving image reproduction panel 702 as shown in FIG. 7 can be displayed together with the bar display 701, and the frame image data at the resume position can be reproduced at the same time. When the user issues an instruction to play a moving image file through the moving image reproduction panel 602, the moving image file is reproduced from the frame image data at the resume position.

  FIG. 8 shows another embodiment in which a plurality of images are displayed on one screen. That is, when displaying a plurality of image data on one screen of the image display unit 28, in the case of a moving image file, representative image data is displayed. When both the moving image file and the still image file are displayed, a band 801 indicating that the moving image file is a moving image file is displayed on the right side of the display image. In addition, when a moving image file is reproduced, an icon 802 indicating that the image is to be displayed from the frame image data at the resume position is displayed on the upper left of each image in the image reproduced from the frame image data at the resume position.

  The currently selected image file can be provided with a border 803 to be recognized by the user. For example, in FIG. 8, the upper right display image is selected. When one image is selected from this state, a moving image reproduction panel 702 as shown in FIG. 7 and frame image data at the resume position are displayed together with the bar display 701.

  The operation of the embodiment of the present invention and the display screen to be displayed have been described above with reference to FIGS.
