Abstract: A technology of preventing feeling of a viewer on brightness from significantly changing when content is switched is provided. A video display device (1) includes a calculation unit (23) that calculates video feature relating to a display video, and a mute video display unit that displays a mute video posterior to a first display video, in which luminance of the mute video is luminance corresponding to a value of the video feature relating to the first display video.

Abstract: The occurrence of the halo phenomenon caused in a display panel unit is detected in a liquid crystal display device that displays an image in the display panel unit including color filters of a plurality of colors by respectively controlling emission ratios of a plurality of LEDs emitting lights of colors respectively corresponding to the plurality of color filters. Upon detection, a part of the display panel unit, for example, the channel number and the vicinity thereof are set as a non-detection area in which the detection of the halo phenomenon is restricted and the remaining area is set as a detection area. The chroma of light, which corresponds to mixed light from the plurality of LEDs, is reduced by controlling the emission ratios of the LEDs on the basis of the detection result in the detection area, so that the color of light is closer to white.

Abstract: Brightness expression without solid white pattern is enabled, and video expression with an improved black level is achieved. A distortion module (5) reduces the luminance of a backlight source according to the histogram of the video signal so that the contrast may be a predetermined target one. A configuration design unit (13) sets the gain according to the luminance level (BLreduced) of the backlight source selected by the distortion module (5). When setting the gain, the luminance level (BLref) for reference of the backlight source preset according to the video feature value is referenced. If the video feature value meets a predetermined condition, the input video signal is always amplified with the gain. If not, depending on the relation between the BLreduced and the BLref, the input video signal is amplified or not.
