Mobile terminal, control method of recording and playing back of broadcast program in a mobile terminal and program

摘要

Disclosed is a mobile terminal capable of receiving a broadcast signal, in which two housings are joined. The mobile terminal includes a relative position detecting unit for detecting a change in relative position of the two housings, and a control unit to control recording and playing back of a broadcast program based on detection result. When a change in the relative positions of the two housings is detected during viewing or listening to a broadcast program under reception in a use state, viewing or listening is interrupted and recording in a memory is started, and when the use state is detected again, viewing or listening is resumed from a interrupted timing while continuing record.
