Abstract:
1. A display apparatus, comprising: a display unit displaying an image; a storing unit in which a maximum resolution of the display unit is stored; a signal processing unit which receives an input image signal having a second resolution, captures an area of the input image signal corresponding to a first resolution, and processes the captured image signal to enable the display unit to display the captured image signal if the second resolution is higher than the first resolution that is the maximum resolution stored in the storing unit; and an output unit which, without changing the received input image signal, outputs the received input image signal to an external display apparatus which includes a display having a second maximum resolution and which is outside of the display apparatus, wherein the captured image signal has the same resolution as the first resolution, wherein the external display apparatus is configured to capture an area of the image signal corresponding to the second maximum resolution of the display included in the external display apparatus, and to process the captured area of the image signal to facilitate a display of the image signal if the outputted image signal has a resolution which is higher than the second maximum resolution of the display included in the external display apparatus.
