Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

1 is a block diagram showing the internal configuration of a mobile communication terminal of the present invention.

The mobile communication terminal 100 includes a transmitter 110 including a modulator and a transmission amplifier, a receiving amplifier, and a demodulator to transmit and receive signals to and from a mobile communication system including a base station, a mobile switching center, and a short message center. It includes a receiver 120 that includes.

The display unit 150 may be formed of a liquid crystal display (LCD) or the like, and outputs various display data and text messages generated from the mobile communication terminal. The key input unit 140 may include a keypad or the like, and includes a plurality of numeric / character input keys, a function key for interfacing with a user, a key for a call, and the like.

The controller 130 includes a digital signal processor (DSP), a microprocessor, and other circuits. The controller 130 controls the transmitter 110 and the receiver 120 so that a user of the mobile communication terminal may use the speaker 170 and the microphone 180. Allows you to make voice calls with other users. In the present invention, when the caption reproduction time is reached when the video is played, the caption file is controlled to be output on the video being played.

Storage unit 160 is composed of a ROM (Read Only Memory) and a voice memory for storing a plurality of programs and data, and stores the images and videos taken by the user through the camera, corresponding to the video Saving subtitle file.

The camera unit 190 reads an image from a camera, processes it as an image, and transmits the image to the controller 130.
