ABSTRACT:
Even when a user is by the immediate side of a screen of a large screen television receiver such as a plasma TV receiver, the user can view an image displayed on the screen entirely by contracting the image to be displayed, and power consumption of the television receiver can be reduced. When the user choose a contraction mode for displaying the image with contraction, the video signal processor performs pixel skipping of video data corresponding to predetermined pixels to video data of a television signal received by a tuner. The display panel displays a contracted image with an initial contraction ratio at an initial display position on a screen of the display panel with using the processed video data. The contraction ratio and the display position of the contracted image on the screen of the display panel can be varied optionally by operating a wireless remote controller, corresponding to a distance between the user and the screen of the display panel or according to the user's predilection.
