Abstract

In an image update, a display apparatus receives only a new portion (1110) of an image for display but does not receive the remaining, unchanged portion of the image. The display apparatus performs a subpixel rendering (SPR) operation (454) for the new portion but does not redo the SPR for the whole image. Efficient techniques are provided to achieve good appearance at the edges between the new portion and the rest of the image. Other features are also provided.
