Abstract

A display apparatus including a display configured to display a content list including a plurality of content items; and a processor configured to receive an enlarge touch input to enlarge the content list, expand and display at least a part of the plurality of content items in the content list, and begin playback of a first content item in the part of the plurality of content items when the first content item is enlarged to a predetermined reproducible size different than the other content items included in the plurality of content items.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A display apparatus comprising:
a sensor configured to sense a touch input by a first mobile terminal and a second mobile terminal;
a display configured to display a content list including a plurality of content items; and
a processor configured to:
receive an enlarge touch input to enlarge the content list,
expand and display at least a part of the plurality of content items in the content list, and
begin playback of a first content item in the part of the plurality of content items when the first content item is enlarged to a predetermined reproducible size different than the other content items included in the plurality of content items,
wherein the processor distinguishes between a touch on the display apparatus by a front surface of the first mobile terminal and a touch on the display apparatus by a rear surface of the first mobile terminal based on different capacitance variations,
wherein the first mobile terminal is placed on the display and the processor displays different content corresponding to the front and rear surfaces of the first mobile terminal on the display,
wherein the processor is further configured to:
calculate a position of a first user based on a position of the first mobile terminal,
display first content on the display in correspondence with the calculated position of the first user,
calculate a position of a second user based on a position of the second mobile terminal,
display second content on the display in correspondence with the calculated position of the second user,
change a display area of the first content based on the position of the second user,
change the display area of the first content in proportion to the amount of content data stored in the first mobile terminal or a resolution of content data to be displayed,
receive an input to display a mini map for the first content,
display the mini map on the display over the first content,
receive an input to zoom the mini map,
display the zoomed-in mini map on the display,
receive an input to move a part of the zoomed-in mini map,
visually move faster the part of the zoomed-in mini map in a first area for the first content corresponding to the position of the first user than in a second area for the second content corresponding to the position of the second user,
display the part of the zoomed-in mini map in correspondence with the position of the second user,
display a copy of the first content corresponding to the position of the second user,
receive an edit input from the second user,
edit the copy of the first content based on the received edit input,
display the edited copy of the first content or a copy of the edited copy of the first content in correspondence with the position of the first user,
prevent editing the copy of the first content or the copy of the edited copy of the first content to the first user during editing,
perform pairing between the display apparatus and the first mobile terminal, and
display an object related to data sharing with the first mobile terminal in a user area corresponding to the position of the first mobile terminal,
wherein when a specific content item is positioned in an overlap area between the user area corresponding to the position of the first mobile terminal and a user area corresponding to the position of the second mobile terminal, the processor is further configured to:
share the content item between the first mobile terminal and the second mobile terminal,
receive an edit input from the second user,
edit the shared content item, and
share the edited content item with the first user.

2. The display apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to:
receive a touch combine input on at least two content items including the plurality of content items, and
combine the at least two content items into a corresponding content list.

3. The display apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to begin playback of the first content item when the first content item is enlarged to the predetermined size that is larger than the other displayed content items.

4. The display apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein when the enlarge touch input is a touch input in a first direction, the processor is further configured to enlarge the content list in the first direction.

5. The display apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to:
increase a volume of the first content item in correspondence with the enlarging of the first content item.

6. The display apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to:
receive a first touch flicking input in a first direction for the first content item being playbacked, and
display images related to the first content item in the first direction.

7. The display apparatus according to claim 6 , wherein the processor is further configured to:
receive an image insert input corresponding to a position of the displayed images,
insert an additional image between the images at the corresponding position,
receive a second touch flicking input in a second direction opposite to the first direction, and
scroll the images including the additional image in the second direction.

8. The display apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to:
receive a touch input or a flicking input for the first mobile terminal,
display a screen displayed on the first mobile terminal in the display area of the first content,
receive another touch input or flicking input for a specific content item in the screen displayed on the first mobile terminal, and
display the specific content item in the display area of the first content.
