Audio processing apparatus and audio processing method
First Claim
1. An audio processing apparatus comprising:
- a transmission signal input/output unit that inputs or outputs a video signal, an audio signal, and a control signal;
a reproduction processing unit that reproduces the audio signal inputted to the transmission signal input/output unit or an audio signal inputted to any other audio signal input unit;
an output unit that outputs the audio signal, which is processed by the reproduction processing unit, through a loudspeaker; and
a control unit that when detecting that a control signal signifying that a predetermined mode concerning the display image quality represented by the video signal should be designated is inputted to the transmission signal input/output unit, instructs the reproduction processing unit to perform predetermined sound-field processing or sound-quality processing during the reproduction.

Abstract
An audio processing apparatus includes: a transmission signal input/output unit that inputs or outputs a video signal, an audio signal, and a control signal; a reproduction processing unit that reproduces the audio signal inputted to the transmission signal input/output unit or an audio signal inputted to any other audio signal input unit; an output unit that outputs the audio signal, which is processed by the reproduction processing unit, through a loudspeaker; and a control unit that when detecting that a control signal signifying that a predetermined mode concerning the display image quality represented by the video signal should be designated is inputted to the transmission signal input/output unit, instructs the reproduction processing unit to perform predetermined sound-field processing or sound-quality processing during the reproduction.

6. An audio processing method comprising the steps of:
-
inputting or outputting a video signal, an audio signal, and a control signal, and performing input processing and output processing on the video signal and audio signal; reproducing the audio signal obtained at the input/output processing step; outputting sounds represented by the audio signal, which is processed at the reproduction processing step, through a loudspeaker; and when the fact that a control signal, which signifies that a predetermined mode concerning the display image quality represented by the video signal should be designated, is inputted at the input/output processing step is detected, performing predetermined sound-field processing or sound-quality processing during reproduction at the reproduction processing step.
