Zusammenfassung:The present disclosure relates to methods and apparatus for hybrid rendering of video/graphics content by a graphics processing unit. The apparatus can configure the graphics processing unit of a display apparatus to perform multiple rendering passes for a frame of a scene to be displayed on a display device. Moreover, the apparatus can control the graphics processing unit to perform a first rendering pass of the multiple rendering passes to generate a first render target that is stored in either an on-chip graphics memory of the GPU or a system of the display apparatus. The apparatus can also control the graphics processing unit to perform a second rendering pass to generate a second render target that is alternatively stored in the system memory of the display apparatus or on-chip graphics memory of the GPU.
