Electronic apparatus, display control method, and program

An electronic apparatus comprising:

• an operation receiving unit configured to receive a selection operation for selecting, in a case where index images for allowing selection of content to be reproduced are displayed in list form on a display unit, an index image from among the index images displayed in list form;
• an image processing unit configured to sequentially scale up an image related to content corresponding to the selected index image from a size of the selected index image to a certain size;
• and
• a control unit configured to cause the display unit to display the image that is being sequentially scaled up to the certain size, with an arrangement position of the selected index image serving as a reference position.

An electronic apparatus comprising:

• an operation receiving unit configured to receive a switching operation for a display unit from a reproduction screen configured to display content to an index-image-list display screen configured to display in list form index images for allowing selection of the content;
• an image processing unit configured to sequentially scale down, from a size of the content on the reproduction screen to a certain size, an image related to content that is displayed on the reproduction screen when the switching operation is received;
• and
• a control unit configured to cause the display unit to display the image that is being sequentially scaled down, with an arrangement position of an index image corresponding to the content that is displayed on the reproduction screen when the switching operation is received serving as a reference position, and cause the display unit to display the index image at the arrangement position of the display unit when a size of the image that is being sequentially scaled down reaches the certain size.

An electronic apparatus comprising:

• an image processing unit configured to sequentially scale down, from a size of the content on the reproduction screen to a certain size, an image related to content that is displayed on the reproduction screen when the switching operation is received;
• and
• a control unit configured to cause the display unit to display the image that is being sequentially scaled down to the certain size, with an arrangement position of an index image corresponding to the content that is displayed on the reproduction screen when the switching operation is received serving as a reference position.

A display control method comprising the steps of:

• displaying in list form index images for allowing selection of content to be reproduced;
• sequentially scaling up, when a selection operation for selecting an index image from among the index images displayed in list form is received, an image related to content corresponding to the selected index image from a size of the selected index image to a certain size;
• and
• causing the image that is being sequentially scaled up to be displayed, with an arrangement position of the selected index image serving as a reference position, and causing the content corresponding to the selected index image to be displayed when a size of the image that is being sequentially scaled up reaches the certain size.

A program that causes a computer to execute:

• displaying in list form index images for allowing selection of content to be reproduced;
• sequentially scaling up, when a selection operation for selecting an index image from among the index images displayed in list form is received, an image related to content corresponding to the selected index image from a size of the selected index image to a certain size;
• and
• causing the image that is being sequentially scaled up to be displayed, with an arrangement position of the selected index image serving as a reference position, and causing the content corresponding to the selected index image to be displayed when a size of the image that is being sequentially scaled up reaches the certain size.
