  • Publication number: 20180260933
    Abstract: A display apparatus is provided. The display apparatus includes a communication interface; a display; and a processor configured to control the communicator to receive a content image from a server, control a screen of the display to display the content image and a first image, determine a size of the first image as displayed on the screen of the display apparatus, generate a second image by resizing the first image in response to determining the size of the first image does not correspond to a sensible size, and control the screen of the display to display the content image and the second image.

  • Publication number: 20180060014
    Abstract: A video wall system for displaying a video wall image is provided. The video wall system includes a plurality of display apparatuses configured to display a video wall image, and each of the plurality of display apparatuses includes a signal processor, a display and a controller. The signal processor is configured to process an image signal of a video wall image. The display scans in one of a first scanning direction and a second scanning direction opposite the first scanning direction based on the processed image signal to display an individual image split from the video wall image. The controller controls the display to scan in one of the first scanning direction and the second scanning direction determined based on a scanning direction of an adjacent other display apparatus. With this, the video wall system may display the video wall image without generating steps caused by differences in screen playing speed between adjacent display apparatuses.

  • Publication number: 20180052651
    Abstract: A video wall system is provided. The video wall system includes a first display apparatus and a second display apparatus. The first display apparatus displays a first individual image which corresponds to a first area of a first video wall image, and transmits the first video wall image to the second display apparatus; and, in response to an execution condition for anti-screen burn operation being satisfied while the first individual image is displayed, generates a second video wall image by changing the first video wall image, displays a second individual image which corresponds to the first area of the generated second video wall image, and transmits the generated second video wall image to the second display apparatus. The second display apparatus displays a third individual image which corresponds to a second area of one video wall image of the first video wall image and the second video wall image received from the first display apparatus, wherein the second area is different from the first area.
