identifying at least one content from among the plurality of pieces of content to secure a resource required for decoding the image signal corresponding to the video call request;
stopping, by at least one decoder included in the display device, decoding of the identified at least one content;
securing the at least one decoder that has stopped decoding, as the resource required for decoding the image signal corresponding to the video call request;
decoding, by the secured at least one decoder, the image signal corresponding to a video call screen; and
outputting the video call screen for the received video call request through at least one partial screen, corresponding to the identified at least one content, from among the plurality of partial screens.
2 . The operating method of claim 1 , wherein the identifying of the at least one content comprises identifying content having a same resolution as a resolution of the video call screen, from among the plurality of pieces of content.
3 . The operating method of claim 1 , wherein the identifying of the at least one content comprises identifying content having an offset resolution, from among the plurality of pieces of content.
4 . The operating method of claim 1 , wherein the identifying of the at least one content comprises identifying content having a lowest resolution, from among the plurality of pieces of content.
5 . The operating method of claim 1 , wherein the identifying of the at least one content comprises identifying content output through a main screen, from among the plurality of pieces of content.
6 . The operating method of claim 1 , wherein the at least one content is identified based on having a resolution corresponding to the video call screen, and the operating method further comprises:
based on identifying no content as having the resolution corresponding to the video call screen, performing a voice call switching process.
7 . The operating method of claim 1 , wherein the at least one content is identified based on having a resolution corresponding to the video call screen, and the operating method further comprises:
based on identifying no content as having the resolution corresponding to the video call screen, ending a video call process.
8 . The operating method of claim 1 , further comprising:
in response to receiving the video call request, displaying a user interface screen for selecting at least one of the plurality of partial screens; and
receiving a user input for selecting at least one of the plurality of partial screens through the user interface screen,
wherein the identified at least one content comprises content corresponding to the selected at least one partial screen.
9 . The operating method of claim 1 , wherein the identified at least one content comprises first content from among the plurality of pieces of content output through the multi-view screen, and
the outputting of the video call screen comprises outputting the video call screen through a first partial screen corresponding to the first content.
10 . The operating method of claim 9 , wherein the outputting of the video call screen comprises:
stopping outputting of the first content through the first partial screen by stopping decoding of a first image signal corresponding to the first content;
decoding, by a decoder that has stopped decoding the first image signal, the image signal; and
outputting the video call screen through the first partial screen based on the decoded image signal.
11 . The operating method of claim 1 , wherein the identified at least one content comprises first content and second content from among the plurality of pieces of content output through the multi-view screen, and
the outputting of the video call screen comprises respectively displaying a counterpart image and a user image included in the video call screen on a first partial screen corresponding to the first content and a second partial screen corresponding to the second content.
12 . The operating method of claim 11 , wherein the outputting of the video call screen further comprises:
stopping outputting of the first content and the second content through the first partial screen and the second partial screen by stopping decoding of a first image signal and a second image signal respectively corresponding to the first content and the second content;
decoding, by decoders that have stopped decoding the first image signal and the second image signal, a counterpart image signal and a user image signal respectively corresponding to the counterpart image and the user image; and
respectively outputting the counterpart image and the user image to the first partial screen and the second partial screen, based on the decoded counterpart image signal and user image signal.
13 . The operating method of claim 11 , wherein
the first partial screen is a main screen from among the plurality of partial screens, and
the second partial screen is a sub-screen from among the plurality of partial screens.
14 . A display device comprising:
a display;
a communication interface including communication circuitry;
a video processor comprising a plurality of decoders; and
at least one processor, comprising processing circuitry, configured to execute at least one instruction and to control the display device to:
control the display to respectively output a plurality of pieces of content, which are individually decoded by the plurality of decoders comprised in the video processor, through a plurality of partial screens included in a multi-view screen;
receive a video call request while the plurality of pieces of content is output through the plurality of screens;
in response to a lack of resources for processing an image signal corresponding to the video call request:
identify at least one content from among the plurality of pieces of content to secure a resource required for decoding the image signal corresponding to the video call request;
stop, by at least one decoder included in the display device, decoding of the identified at least one content;
secure the at least one decoder that has stopped decoding, as the resource required for decoding the image signal corresponding to the video call request;
decode, by the secured at least one decoder, the image signal corresponding to a video call screen; and
control the display to output the video screen for the received video call request through at least one partial screen corresponding to the identified at least one content from among the plurality of partial screens.
15 . One or more non-transitory computer-readable storage media storing computer-executable instructions including at least one instruction to cause a display device comprising a plurality of decoders to:
control a display to respectively output a plurality of pieces of content, which are individually decoded using the plurality of decoders through a plurality of partial screens;
receive a video call request while the plurality of pieces of content is output through the plurality of screens; and
in response to a lack of resources for processing an image signal corresponding to the video call request:
identify at least one content from among the plurality of pieces of content to secure a resource required for decoding the image signal corresponding to the video call request;
stop, by at least one decoder included in the display device, decoding of the identified at least one content;
secure the at least one decoder that has stopped decoding, as the resource required for decoding the image signal corresponding to the video call request;
decode, by the secured at least one decoder, the image signal corresponding to a video call screen; and
