Abstract
An image display apparatus and a method for operating the same are disclosed. The method for operating an image display apparatus includes entering a three-dimensional (3D) setting menu, upon receipt of a 3D view input, displaying the 3D setting menu on a display, for setting at least one of a 3D format or an ordering of left-eye and right-eye images that form a 3D image, and displaying a 3D image obtained by performing 3D processing on an input image according to the set 3D format or the set ordering of left-eye and right-eye images on the display.
Claims17
An image display apparatus comprising:
- a display;
- a remote controller including a 3D key, and directional keys;
- a controller configured to control the display to display a three-dimensional (3D) format setting menu when the 3D key of the remote controller is pressed,
- wherein the controller is configured to display the 3D format setting menu in a pop-up window,
- wherein the 3D format setting menu is overlaid on an on-going image on the display,
- wherein the 3D format setting menu includes a plurality of objects, the plurality of objects including a first object indicating a top and bottom format and a second object indicating a side-by-side format,
- wherein the first object includes a first image and a second image, which is the same as the first image, which are arranged in a top and bottom arrangement, respectively,
- wherein the second object includes a third image and a fourth image, which is the same as the third image, which are arranged in a left side and a right side arrangement, respectively,
- wherein when a direction key among the directional keys of the remote controller is pressed, the controller is configured to move focus of the first object to the second object, to convert the on-going image as a converted image corresponding to the second object, and to display the converted image with the 3D format setting menu,
- wherein the 3D format setting menu further includes a move icon indicating movement of the focus among the plurality of objects, a setting icon indicating selection of one of the plurality of objects, and an exit icon indicating termination of display of the 3D setting menu, and
- wherein, when the 3D Key is pressed during displaying a 3D image, the controller is configured to terminate displaying the 3D image.
