Patent attributes
An image processing apparatus receives a broadcast wave and reproduces a first image from a storage medium if a display mode of the image processing apparatus is a first display mode. The image processing apparatus starts recording a second image obtained from the broadcast wave on the storage medium without stopping the reproduction of the first image if the display mode of the image processing apparatus is changed from the first display mode to a second display mode. The image processing apparatus displays the first image and the second image on a display unit if the display mode of the image processing apparatus is the first display mode. The image processing apparatus displays the first image on the display unit but does not display the second image on the display unit if the display mode of the image processing apparatus is the second display mode.
