Abstract
An electronic device and a content display method are provided. A content display method of an electronic device includes displaying an application in the electronic device; and changing a content display mode of the application, when a detected battery consumption of the application exceeds a threshold logical battery capacity assigned to the application.
Claims20
A content display method of an electronic device, the content display method comprising:
- storing information on a hardware decoding mode of an application based on a selection of the hardware decoding mode from among a plurality of decoding modes for video data or audio data;
- displaying a screen associated with the application;
- and
- changing a decoding mode of the application to the hardware decoding mode, in response to a detected battery consumption of the application exceeding a threshold logical battery capacity assigned to the application,
- wherein the plurality of decoding modes for video data or audio data comprise a software decoding mode and the hardware decoding mode.
An electronic device comprising:
- a memory;
- a touch screen;
- and
- a processor configured to:
- store, in the memory, information on a hardware decoding mode of an application based on a selection of the hardware decoding mode from among a plurality of decoding modes for video data or audio data associated with the application;
- control the touch screen to display a screen associated with the application;
- and
- change a decoding mode of the application to the hardware decoding mode, in response to a calculated battery consumption of the application exceeding a threshold logical battery capacity assigned to the application,
- wherein the plurality of decoding modes for video data or audio data comprise a software decoding mode and the hardware decoding mode.
A content display method of an electronic device, the content display method comprising:
- storing information on a hardware decoding mode of an application based on a selection of the hardware decoding mode from among a plurality of decoding modes for video data or audio data associated with the application;
- displaying a screen associated with the application in the electronic device;
- and
- changing the decoding mode of the application to the hardware decoding mode, in response to a detected battery consumption of the application exceeding the logical battery capacity,
- wherein the logical battery capacity of the application is the same as the threshold logical battery capacity of the application, and
- wherein the plurality of decoding modes for video data or audio data comprise a software decoding mode and the hardware decoding mode.
