First Claim
1. An image signal generating apparatus comprising:
- a video information obtaining unit configured to obtain video information from a plurality of channels;
a characteristic information obtaining unit configured to obtain a plurality of predetermined characteristic information from the video information of each channel, and to detect a change in the characteristic information obtained from the video information;
a sorting unit configured to generate a display order of the video information of each channel in order of a frequency of changes in the characteristic information; and
a display image signal generating unit configured to generate a video signal to display, via a display screen of a display device, the video information of each channel in an order based on the display order determined by the sorting unit.

Abstract
Disclosed is an image signal generating apparatus that includes a video information obtaining unit that obtains a plurality of video information, a characteristic information obtaining unit that obtains a plurality of predetermined characteristic information from each of the plurality of video information obtained by the video information obtaining unit, and a sorting unit that changes an order of displaying the plurality of the video information based on each of the plurality of characteristic information obtained from the characteristic information obtaining unit. The image signal generating apparatus further includes a display image signal generating unit that generates a video signal to display the plurality of video information based on information obtained, as a result of changing the order of displaying the plurality of the video information, from the sorting unit.
