Abstract
A method and apparatus for displaying an image in a system having an image generation subsystem and an image display subsystem. The image generation subsystem is provided information regarding image display subsystem capabilities (i.e., image color formats and data transfer modes). The image generation subsystem generates for display test images based on permutations of those capabilities and generates image color priority lists based on the display results. The image generation subsystem is then provided digital data and image display parameters corresponding to the image. The image generation subsystem selects an image color format and a data transfer mode for the image based on the priority lists and the image display parameters, and then processes the image for display using the selected image color format and data transfer mode. The image display subsystem then displays the image.
