Abstract
This multi-primary-color display device () includes a multi-primary-color display panel () and a signal converter (). The display device assigns a plurality of subpixels that form each pixel to a plurality of virtual pixels and is able to conduct a display operation using each of the plurality of virtual pixels as a minimum color display unit. The signal converter () includes: a low-frequency multi-primary-color signal generating section () which generates a low-frequency multi-primary-color signal; a high-frequency luminance signal generating section () which generates a high-frequency luminance signal; and a rendering processing section () which performs rendering processing on the plurality of virtual pixels based on the low-frequency multi-primary-color signal and the high-frequency luminance signal. The signal converter () further includes a magnitude of correction calculating section () which calculates, based on an input image signal, the magnitude of correction to be made on the high-frequency luminance signal during the rendering processing.
