Frame times by dynamically adjusting frame buffer resolution

摘要

System and method of dynamically adjusting a frame buffer resolution. An average frame rate is dynamically computed based on the frame rates with respect to rendering a sequence of previous frames to a frame buffer. The frame rates may vary with the processing load of an associated graphics processor. A target scaling factor for frame buffer resolution is computed based upon the dynamic average frame rate and a desired frame rate. The current scaling factor of frame buffer resolution for rendering a respective frame data of a sequence of frame data to the frame buffer is adjusted incrementally to reach the target scaling factor. Accordingly, frame resolutions for rendering the sequence of frame data to the frame buffer are incrementally adjusted based on corresponding current scaling factors.
