Abstract:
1. A display device, comprising: a light source for irradiating a display panel with light; a light source luminance controlling section for controlling a luminance of the light source in accordance with a light source luminance control signal for controlling the luminance of the light source; a display controlling section for carrying out driving control with respect to the display panel; a suspension controlling section for controlling the display controlling section to be suspended for a predetermined period of time on a predetermined cycle; a light source control parameter calculating section for calculating a light source control parameter on the basis of gray scale information of an input image; a light source luminance control signal generating section for generating the light source luminance control signal on the basis of the light source control parameter; and a light source control parameter supplying section for supplying the light source control parameter to the light source luminance control signal generating section, the light source control parameter supplying section supplying, to the light source luminance control signal generating section during a suspension time period during which the suspension controlling section controls the display controlling section to be suspended, a light source control parameter which has been calculated, immediately before the suspension time period, by the light source control parameter calculating section.
