Abstract: A change-information obtaining unit determines a pixel having a rapid decrease in luminance from an input video signal. A light-emitting-region determination unit determines whether or not the pixel having a rapid decrease in luminance is a light emitting pixel. When the area of a region formed by light emitting pixels is greater than or equal to a predetermined value, the light-emitting-region determination unit notifies a drive signal correction unit of the address of the region. The drive signal correction unit corrects a drive signal so that the luminance of the region at the notified address can be lower than that obtained without correction, and generates a display frame.
