Abstract
To provide a mobile terminal having a broadcast receiving function, wherein even when reception of an incoming call or start of a call interrupts playback of a broadcast being received, all remaining contents of the broadcast including an interrupted part can be played back after the call has ended. Upon receiving notification of call start from a broadcast control unit 112, a recording/playback unit 113 interrupts outputting a TV broadcast being received to a speaker 105 and a display 106, and records audio data and video data in units of frames of the broadcast in a storage unit 114. Upon receiving notification of call end from the broadcast control unit 112, the recording/playback unit 113 continues recording the data in the storage unit 114, reads the data recorded in the storage unit 114 from an interrupted part thereof, and outputs these data to the speaker 105 and the display 106.
