An image processing device is comprised of a decoding unit (501) for (i) decoding input compressed image data into an original image signal and outputting the original image signal, and (ii) reading out, from the compressed image data, compressed image information indicating the type of the original image signal and details of compression; a parameter storing unit (506) for storing a plurality of signal processing parameters and parameter information indicating the characteristics of the respective signal processing parameters; a control unit (504) for determining one of the plurality of signal processing parameters to be used in a signal processing unit (502) on the basis of the compressed image information and the parameter information, and outputting parameter selection information for identifying the determined signal processing parameter; a parameter selecting unit (505) for reading out and outputting such signal processing parameter according to the parameter selection information; and the signal processing unit (502) for performing signal processing on the original image signal inputted by the decoding unit (501) using the signal processing parameter inputted by the parameter selecting unit (505).
