Data processing device and data copying method
First Claim
1. A data processing device capable of copying data between a plurality of recording media and comprising an arithmetic processor for adding up the amounts of data on a plurality of files recorded on a transmitting medium to thereby detect the total amount of copy data, a display unit for displaying the total amount of copy data detected, and a display controller for displaying an intermediate result of addition on the display unit while updating the result displayed during a process from the start of addition of the amounts of file data by the arithmetic processor until the completion of addition and displaying the final result of addition on the display unit upon the completion of addition.

Abstract
For use in copying data between a plurality of recording media, the present invention provides a data processing device adds up the amounts of data on a plurality of files recorded on a transmitting medium to thereby detect the total amount of copy data, displays an intermediate result of addition on a display unit while updating the result displayed during a process from the start of addition of the amounts of file data until the completion of addition and displays the final result of addition on the display unit upon the completion of addition. The user is unlikely to feel uneasy even when the detection of the total amount of copy data takes time.
