The quality of moving picture image with a large moving amount is prevented from deterioration due to moving compensation type
frame rate conversion (FRC)
processing. The
image display device is comprised of an FRC unit (10) that interpolates an
image signal subjected to moving compensation
processing between frames so as to convert the number of frames of the input
image signal, a moving amount judging unit (14) that judges whether a moving amount of the input
image signal between the frames is larger than a predetermined value or not, and a
control unit (15). The FRC unit (10) is provided with a moving vector detecting unit (11e) that detects a moving vector between the frames of the input image
signal, an interpolation vector evaluating unit (11f) that allocates an interpolation vector between the frames on the basis of the moving vector information and an interpolation frame
generating unit (12d) that generates an interpolation frame from the interpolation vector. In the case where the moving amount between the frames of the input image
signal is larger than the predetermined value, the
control unit (15) sets the moving vector detected by the moving vector detecting unit (11e) to be zero-vector, and it invalidates the moving compensation
processing of the FRC unit (10).
