Abstract

An image output device includes a reception unit, an output unit, and a selection reception unit. The reception unit receives a change of setting from a display mode, which is currently set to one of a plurality of display modes, to a different display mode. The output unit outputs an image signal based upon a display mode which has been received. Furthermore, when the receipt of a change of setting by the reception unit has been initiated, the output unit outputs an image for mode selection in which an image based upon the display mode which is currently set, and an image based upon another display mode among the plurality of display modes which is not currently set, are arrayed. The selection reception unit receives a selection of one display mode among the other display modes which are not currently set, among the plurality of display modes.
