摘要

In image processor section (24), moving image signal decoder section (246) decodes the moving image bit stream and the time stamp to be used for reproduction transmitted from multiple separator section (22) on a frame by frame basis and stored in input buffer (245) and provides time control section (247) with the time stamp to be used for reproduction that corresponds to the decoded frame and the information on the time stamp in the header of the moving image bit stream, while storing the decoded image data in frame memory (248). The time control section (247) transmits a request to image output section (249) for outputting image data at the time specified by the time stamp to be used for reproduction as transmitted from the moving image signal decoder section (246) or at the time as determined on the basis of the time stamp of the moving image itself and causes the image data to be read out of the frame memory (248) and displayed on the LCD (34) by way of LCD control section (25).
