Abstract: According to one embodiment, a frame interpolation device includes a detecting section which receives a frame signal of 60 Hz and outputs a pull-down detection signal when determining that the frame signal is a pull-down signal, a generation section which generates a first frame signal of 120 Hz by use of a first insertion pattern based on the frame signal of 60 Hz and a second frame signal of 120 Hz by use of a second insertion pattern, and a selecting section which outputs the first frame signal by the first insertion pattern when the pull-down detection signal is not received and outputs the second frame signal of 120 Hz of the second insertion pattern when the pull-down detection signal is received.

Abstract: According to one embodiment, a pull-down signal detecting apparatus judges whether an input video signal is a pull-down signal or not based on a first unit moving area number obtained in a small area unit for a first high correlation field having a high inter-field correlation between a current field signal and a one-field delay signal, or a second unit moving area number obtained in a small area unit for a second high correlation field having a high inter-frame correlation between the current field signal and a two-field delay signal.
