Abstract
A display apparatus which has a display unit includes: a communication unit which communicates with an external source supplying a image signal including a plurality of still images; an image processor which processes the image signal; and a controller which controls the image processor to perform a slide show function sequentially displaying the supplied still images on the display unit in every predetermined display cycle if the still images are supplied from the external source.
Claims19
A display apparatus comprising:
- a display unit;
- a communication unit which communicates with an external source which supplies an image signal including a plurality of still images;
- an image processor which processes the image signal including the still images;
- and
- a controller which controls the image processor to perform a slide show function that sequentially displays the still images on the display unit in every predetermined display cycle, by displaying each received still image while a subsequent one of the still images is transmitted from the external source to the communication unit.
A display apparatus comprising:
- a display unit;
- a communication unit which communicates with an external source which supplies an image signal including a plurality of still images;
- an image processor which processes the image signal including the plurality of still images;
- a controller which controls the image processor to perform a slide show function sequentially displaying the plurality of still images on the display unit in every predetermined display cycle;
- and
- a user selection unit through which the predetermined display cycle is adjustable,
- wherein the controller controls the image processor to display the plurality of still images on the display unit according to an adjusted display cycle, and
- wherein the adjusted display cycle is longer than a sum of a time for transmitting a still image through the communication unit and a time for processing the still image by the image processor.
A display apparatus comprising:
- a display unit;
- a communication unit which communicates with an external source supplying an image signal including a plurality of still images;
- an image processor which processes the image signal including the still images;
- a user selection unit through which a slide show function for displaying the still images on the display unit in every predetermined display cycle is selectable;
- and
- a controller which continuously receives the still images from the external source and controls the communication unit and the image processor to sequentially display the received still images on the display unit, if the slide show function is selected,
- wherein the controller controls the image processor to perform the slide show function that sequentially displays the still images on the display unit in every predetermined display cycle, by displaying each received still image while a subsequent one of the still images is transmitted from the external source to the communication unit.
A control method of a display apparatus which communicates with an external source supplying a plurality of still images, the control method comprising:
- receiving a selection signal to select a slide show function for sequentially displaying the still images in every predetermined display cycle;
- receiving the still images from the external source;
- and
- sequentially displaying the still images in predetermined every display cycle,
- wherein the sequentially displaying the still images comprises performing the slide show function that sequentially displays the still images on a display unit in every predetermined display cycle, by displaying each received still image while a subsequent one of the still images is transmitted from the external source to the display apparatus.
