Abstract
A projection video display apparatus includes an input unit to input a video signal; a display to display the inputted video signal; a plurality of light sources to generate light; an illumination optical system to guide the generated light to the display; a projection optical system to project light via the display; and a controller to control the light sources, a lighting ratio and a current value per time for each light source. The controller has a black display control mode, for each light source, which makes a relative rate of a lighting ratio for a light source with a specific color smaller than the other light sources, and reduces the current value of the other light sources to be less than a current value of the light source with the specific color when compared with a case where the input video signal is a white signal.
