Patent ID: 8199261

Claim:
A projection display apparatus comprising: a light source; a spatial light modulation device modulating, on the basis of a video signal, each of primary color lights for color display emitted from the light source; projecting means for projecting, onto a screen, each of the primary color lights modulated by the spatial light modulation device; and correcting means for correcting, based on a given correction value, the video signal for each of the primary color lights so as to perform a registration adjustment process to reduce misregistration between the primary color lights projected on the screen, and supplying the corrected video signal to the spatial light modulation device, wherein, at a time of performing the registration adjustment process when a setting menu including a validation/invalidation of correction setting is projected on the screen, validation/invalidation of correction on the video signal by the correcting means is switched in accordance with an operation from a user of the validation/invalidation of correction setting such that a registration adjustment based on the correction value is not performed and a video image displayed on a basis of the video signal before adjustment is held if invalidation of correction is selected by the user and a registration adjustment based on the correction value is performed to obtain an adjusted video signal and a video image of the adjusted video signal is displayed if validation of correction is selected by the user, so that a reset of the correction value is unnecessary after the correction value is once entered.
