Such categories include health (e.g., yoga, harshness, etc.), learning (e.g., English words, general conversation, etc.), common sense (e.g., economic common sense, scientific common sense, etc.), hobbies .

Hereinafter, the screen processing method of the controller 180 according to the predetermined screen processing method will be described in more detail.

First, when information about transmission data is displayed at the time of downloading, the controller 180 extracts information on data being transmitted and outputs the information. At this time, the controller 180 extracts different information according to the type of the data (photograph, moving picture, music, document, etc.). The extracted information includes an image (still image, moving image), text, and the like.

In addition, the controller 180 of the mobile terminal according to the present invention may display information on at least one or more pieces of data that have been transmitted, together with information of the data being transmitted. At this time, the controller 180 simultaneously displays the information of the data being transmitted and the data of the transmitted data, and forms a display 151 screen so that the information can be easily distinguished.

For example, the information of the data being transmitted overlaps the information of the data being transmitted so that the information of the data being transmitted partially covers the information of the data that has been transmitted. Alternatively, the control unit 180 enlarges and displays the data of the data being transmitted, and displays the data of the transmitted data in a reduced form.

In addition, the controller 180 extracts different information according to the type of data to be transmitted and outputs the extracted information. For example, when the data is a photo file, the controller 180 extracts thumbnail image information from the photo file. At this time, text information such as a file name and a file creation date can also be extracted and displayed.

If the data is a moving image file, the controller 180 extracts image information in the form of a still image or a continuous image from the moving image file being transmitted. For example, the control unit 180 extracts and displays a first start still image of a downloaded moving image file or extracts a predetermined section image (continuous image) from the moving image file while downloading the moving image file. In other words, the present invention can play back a part of the downloaded moving picture. Alternatively, the mobile terminal 100 according to the present invention may extract a summary image of the downloaded moving image from the moving image file and output the extracted summary image to the display 151. [

If the data is a music file, the controller 180 displays tag information for the music file. The tag information includes a file name, a song title, an artist, an album, a release year, a genre, and the like. In addition, the controller 180 may display font color, size, font style, and the like so that the user can distinguish information on the music file being transmitted and information on the music file that has been transmitted. For example, information on a music file being transmitted is displayed in blue, and information on a music file that has been transmitted is displayed in gray.

Also, the controller 180 may download a music file and play a predetermined section of the music file. For example, a music file is downloaded in a streaming manner and is reproduced in real time, or a specific section downloaded for a predetermined time is repeatedly reproduced.

When the data is other files other than photos, moving pictures, and music files, the displayable elements are extracted and displayed. For example, file information such as a file name, a creation date, a size, and a file format is extracted and displayed.

Next, a case of displaying information related to the category selected by the user at the time of download will be described. The control unit 180 provides the user with various categories when setting the screen processing method, and when the user selects one or more categories, the controller 180 stores the information in the memory 160. Then, upon downloading, the controller 180 analyzes the set screen processing method and displays information related to the category according to the analysis result. Such categories include learning (e.g., English words, English conversation, etc.), health (e.g., yoga, hydrangea etc.), hobbies (e.g., cooking, crafts, etc.), common sense . The category and category related information may receive desired information from an external device through the wireless communication unit 110 and the interface unit 170, and may periodically update the information. For example, if the category is learning, the user receives word information selected by the service providing server to the mobile terminal 100.

Then, the controller 180 changes category information displayed on the display 151 every predetermined time unit. The predetermined time includes a time when the data transmission is completed and a time set by the user.

5 is a flowchart illustrating a screen processing method of a mobile terminal according to an embodiment of the present invention. The present embodiment will be described taking as an example the case of displaying information on transmission data at the time of downloading.

Referring to FIG. 5, the mobile terminal of the present invention sets up a communication environment with the external device to download data desired by the user from the external device (S101). For example, when data is downloaded from another mobile terminal through infrared communication, the receiving mobile terminal 100 that downloads data through a menu operation is set to a receiving mode for data reception, And is set to a transmission mode for transmission.

When data to be downloaded is selected from the external device and a transmission command is input, the controller 180 starts downloading desired data through the wireless communication unit 110 (S103).

Then, the controller 180 analyzes the setting information about the screen processing method stored in the memory 160 (S105). The setting information includes a screen processing method, a number of information to be displayed, a type of information to be displayed, and the like.

If the set screen processing method is the data information display method, the controller 180 extracts information on download data (S107). Here, the controller 180 extracts different information according to the type of data. For example, if the data is a photograph and a moving image file, image information is extracted. If the data is a music file, tag information is extracted.

When the extraction of the information on the data is completed, the controller 180 transmits the extracted information to the display 151, and the display 151 displays the received information on the screen (S109). At this time, the controller 180 displays a data transmission state and a transmission amount together. In addition, the controller 180 may display only the information of the data being transmitted or may display information about at least one data that has been transmitted before.

In addition, when the extracted information is text, the controller 180 displays the text color, font style, size, and the like differently, so that the transmitted data can be distinguished from the data being transmitted.

Then, the control unit 180 periodically checks whether the download is completed (S111). As a result of the confirmation, if the download is in progress, the extracted information is continuously displayed. When the download is completed, a message and a notification sound indicating the fact are displayed.
