<p>When an image, the aspect ratio of which is converted from 4:3 to 16:9, is displayed on a 4:3 display device, the image can be displayed as an image with a small non-picture area. An image represented by an externally input image signal can be displayed on a display device (2) in either a standard size display mode or an enlarged size display mode (S255, S250). If a non-picture area in which no picture image is present is added to an image with an aspect ratio of 4:3, and the added image is displayed in the enlarged size display mode, the image results in an image with such a size that its edges, that is, at least part of the non-picture area, runs off the display area of the display device (2). Thus, since the area that runs off the display area is not displayed on the display device (2), as a result, an image having a small non-picture area can be displayed.</p> |
