Abstract

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for enabling a variable refresh rate on a display. One of the methods includes receiving, from a content presentation device, a first signal set to a first value; completing generation of first visual content; and after completing the generation of the first visual content, determining that the first signal is set to the first value and a second threshold duration of time has not expired; sending, to the content presentation device, the first visual content, wherein sending the first visual content causes the content presentation device to change the first signal from the first value to the second value; and after sending the first visual content, receiving, from the content presentation device, the first signal set to the second value.
