A display control method includes: acquiring a standard time; synchronizing an internal time referred to in processing by one display device with the standard time; detecting a reference time, which is the internal time when an image represented by an input image signal satisfies a predetermined condition; outputting the reference time to another display device of a plurality of display devices; acquiring a reference time detected in the another display device; and delaying a vertical synchronization signal by a time period from the reference time of the one display device to the reference time of the another display device, when the reference time of the another display device is later than the reference time of the one display device.
