A television receiver comprises an input circuit (1) for Y, PB, and PR signals of an external component video input signal, a matrix circuit (5) having a function of converting luminance signal Y and transmitted chrominance signals PB and PR into primary color signals R, G, and B, and a function of converting luminance signal Y and color-difference signals B-Y and R-Y into primary color signals R, G, and B, and a color-difference conversion circuit (8). When Y, PB, and PR signals of an external component video input signal based on various television systems are fed to the color-difference signal conversion circuit (8), the video signal discriminating circuit (7) determines the video signal format based on data characterizing a video signal such as the horizontal sync frequency and the like of the input signal, and automatically converts the output of the color-difference signal conversion circuit (8) to either Y, PB, and PR signals or to Y, B-Y, and R-Y signals, and supplies the converted signals to the matrix circuit (5). The matrix circuit (5) generates primary colors faithful to the component video input signals of various incoming television systems.
