Abstract

Techniques are described in which a device is configured to retrieve a metadata buffer for rendering a sub-frame of a set of sub-frames for a frame. A data block of a data buffer is configured to store image data for rendering the sub-frame. In response to determining, based on the metadata buffer for rendering the sub-frame, that the sub-frame includes a color pattern, fixed color value, or combination thereof, the device refrains from retrieving the image data from the data block of the data buffer and determines the image data for rendering the sub-frame based on the metadata buffer.
