Abstract: When image reduction is effected at the writing of the image to a frame memory, a first image portion which is to be dropped by the reduction is subjected to weighted-averaging with a second image portion adjacent thereto to modify the second image portion. When an image read from the frame memory is enlarged, a first image portion which is to be added by the enlargement is generated by weighted-averaging two second image portions located before and after the first image portion. When an image is enlarged, it is enlarged by a first enlargement factor in the range of 1 to 2 and enlarged by a second enlargement factor that is an integer, thereby obtaining a result image enlarged by a third enlargement factor that is the product of the first and second enlargement factors.

Abstract: An input video image having an arbitrary resolution is converted to another video image having a predetermined resolution of a display device to display the video image with the converted resolution. The frequencies of the synchronizing signals of the input video signal are measured, and then a resolution of an input video signal is determined from the measured frequencies of the synchronizing signals. The video image represented by the input video signal is expanded or contracted, so as to make the resolution of the input video signal coincident with a resolution of the display device. A resulting video image with the converted resolution is displayed on the display device.
