Abstract
A display apparatus transmits a picture acquisition request for getting picture information to an external image apparatus connected through a predetermined interface to the display apparatus from the external image apparatus at predetermined intervals and gets a plurality of pieces of picture information from the external image apparatus to be displayed. The plurality of pictures may be switched at predetermined intervals, for example, to be displayed, so that the plurality of pictures may be displayed in a so-called slide show manner. A plurality of pictures for thumbnail may be produced from the plurality of pieces of picture information and be arranged together to be displayed in one picture screen of a display device.
Claims8
An image display apparatus, comprising:
- first interface circuitry configured to wirelessly receive compressed image information from an external apparatus,
- second interface circuitry configured to receive uncompressed image information by wire from the external apparatus,
- third interface circuitry configured to receive compressed image information by wire from the external apparatus,
- expansion circuitry configured to expand the compressed image information received by the first interface circuitry or the third interface circuitry;
- and
- display circuitry which configured to display a first image based on image information obtained by the expansion circuitry expanding the compressed image information which is received by the first interface circuitry, a second image based on the uncompressed image information received by the second interface circuitry, or a third image based on image information obtained by the expansion circuitry expanding the compressed image information which is received by the third interface circuitry,
- wherein either one of displaying the first image on the display, displaying the second image on the display or displaying the third image on the display is selectable in accordance with an operation on an input device of the image display apparatus,
- wherein if displaying the first image on the display is selected, based on an operation on the input device of the image display apparatus for displaying a slide show, the first interface circuitry wirelessly transmits a first signal to the external apparatus for causing the external apparatus to output compressed image information, and wirelessly receives the compressed image information output from the external apparatus, and the display displays a slide show at a first predetermined time interval with a plurality of the first images based on image information obtained by the expansion circuitry expanding the compressed image information which is received by the first interface circuitry,
- wherein if displaying the second image on the display is selected, based on an operation on the input device of the image display apparatus for displaying a slide show, the second interface circuitry transmits a second signal by wire to the external apparatus for causing the external apparatus to expand the compressed image information and to output uncompressed image information, and receives the uncompressed image information by wire, and the display displays a slide show at a second predetermined time interval with a plurality of the second images based on the uncompressed image information received by the second interface circuitry, and
- wherein if displaying the third image on the display is selected, based on an operation on the input device of the image display apparatus for displaying a slide show, the third interface circuitry transmits a third signal by wire to the external apparatus for causing the external apparatus to output compressed image information, and receives the compressed image information output from the external apparatus by wire, and the display displays a slide show at a third predetermined time interval with a plurality of the third images based on image information obtained by the expansion circuitry expanding the compressed image information which is received by the third interface circuitry.
