Therefore, the controller 15 applies the changed setting value and updates and stores it in the memory 16 as the user setting value (S208).

In addition, the controller 15 compares the default setting value with the user setting value, applies a specific color to another item as shown in FIG. 3B, and then displays the default setting value through the OSD generator 21. The OSD signal for the changed setting value is generated and displayed on the display screen together with the video signal (S208).

On the other hand, if there is no key input for changing the setting value from the remote controller 20 in step S206, and there is a user setting value previously changed by the user in the memory 16, the default setting value and the user It is determined whether other items exist by comparing with the set value (S212).

Therefore, even when different items exist in a plurality of setting items in which the default setting value and the user setting value are compared, the control unit 15 sets the default setting for the TV screen, for example, as shown in FIG. In addition to displaying the value "Default: TV Aspect-16: 9 Wide", the setting value "Change: TV Aspect-4: 3 Pan Scan" changed by the user is displayed on the display screen as a specific color (S210). ).

However, when no other items exist compared with the default setting value and the user setting value, since there is no setting value changed by the user, the controller 15 displays an OSD signal indicating that there is no change in the GUI setting value. It generates through the generation unit 21 and displays on the display screen (S214).
