Abstract

With use of a PinP function, a display processing unit (230) of a display device (200) displays, while displaying a video of a baseball broadcasting program on a secondary screen positioned at a center part or its upper part of a primary screen, a different video, captured by a “camera including a wide-angle lens” that is installed behind the outfield of a baseball park as a broadcast spot, on the primary screen.

Claims

1. An information device comprising:

an acquisition processing unit that individually acquires a video of a broadcasting program and a different video in a lower part of which spectators in a broadcast spot appear; and

a display processing unit that displays, while displaying the different video on a primary screen, the video of the broadcasting program on a secondary screen with use of a picture-in-picture function, wherein

the different video is a video generated by a camera in the broadcast spot, and

the secondary screen is positioned at a center part or an upper part thereof of the primary screen.

2. The information device according to claim 1, wherein the camera is a camera including a wide-angle lens.

3. The information device according to claim 1, wherein the acquisition processing unit acquires, together with the video of the broadcasting program, acquisition destination information indicating an acquisition destination of the different video, and further acquires the different video by referring to the acquisition destination information.

4. The information device according to claim 1, further comprising a sound output processing unit that outputs sound captured by a microphone while outputting sound of the broadcasting program, wherein

the camera includes the microphone, and

the different video is a video with the sound captured by the microphone.

5. A display processing method by an information device, the display processing method comprising the steps of:

individually acquiring a video of a broadcasting program and a different video in a lower part of which spectators in a broadcast spot appear; and

displaying, while displaying the different video on a primary screen, the video of the broadcasting program on a secondary screen with use of a picture-in-picture function, wherein

the different video is a video generated by a camera in the broadcast spot, and

the secondary screen is positioned at a center part or an upper part thereof of the primary screen.
