Abstract:
1. An image processing apparatus for processing an image signal to be displayed by an image display apparatus, the image processing apparatus comprising: storage means for storing a supplied image signal with a first frame rate; output control means for controlling outputting of the image signal stored in the storage means to a plurality of display processing areas in the image display apparatus; and display control means for controlling displaying of an image corresponding to the image signal output under the control of the output control means; wherein, in a case in which there are provided at least n display processing areas in the image display apparatus: the output control means controls the outputting of the image signal such that the image signal is output frame by frame from the storage means to the n display processing areas at a second frame rate equal to 1/n of the first frame rate; and the display control means controls the displaying of images corresponding to the image signal output to the n display processing areas under the control of the output control means such that images corresponding to the image signal output to the n display processing areas are displayed while a display start timing is shifted from one frame to another by 1/n of one scanning period at the second frame rate.
