Abstract
The present invention provides an image display apparatus capable of suppressing deterioration in picture quality resulting from precision of detection of a motion vector at the time of performing a predetermined video signal process to improve picture quality. In consideration of reliability in detection of a motion vector mv by a motion vector detector, a video signal process in an interpolation section, an imaging blur suppression processor, and an overdrive processoris performed. Concretely, the video signal process is performed so that a degree of the video signal process rises as reliability increases and, on the other hand, a degree of the video signal process falls off as the reliability decreases. In the case of performing the video signal process using a motion vector, even when a motion vector lies out of a motion vector search range (block matching range), the video signal process according to the motion vector detection precision can be performed.
