Video data processing apparatus and contrast correcting method

摘要

A video data processing apparatus includes: a contrast correction calculating section correcting the contrast of input luminance data by performing a calculation using a contrast correction value; an error diffusion section performing an error diffusion process on the luminance data whose contrast has been corrected; an error diffusion setting section setting whether to perform the error diffusion process at the error diffusion section; a correction value setting section detecting black and white peak values of an input luminance signal and setting the contrast correction value using the detected black and white peak values; and a correction amount adjusting section adjusting the contrast correction value set by the correction value setting section depending on whether the error diffusion process is performed at the error diffusion section according to an instruction from the error diffusion setting section and supplying the adjusted contrast correction value to the contrast correction calculating section.
