Abstract

A content processing routine divides a thumbnail-area according to data size and generates the same number of pixels values as the number of divided thumbnail-areas. The content processing routine sets the generated pixel values to the divided thumbnail-areas and controls the display processing so that the thumbnails set with the pixel values are displayed.
