Abstract
An image processing apparatus includes a first image processing circuit and a second image processing circuit connected to the first image processing circuit via a first signal line and a second signal line. The first image processing circuit outputs OSD image data representing an OSD image in the form of n sets of divided OSD image data that are generated by dividing the OSD image data by n to the second image processing circuit via the first signal line and outputs position information of the divided OSD image data to the second image processing circuit via the second signal line. The second image processing circuit outputs, based on first input image data, the n sets of divided OSD image data, and the position information, combined image data representing a combined image formed of the first input image on which the OSD image is superimposed.
