Abstract

A method for controlling image resolution in graphics systems at runtime is provided. In use, the stream of commands and Shaders of the running application is intercepted and analyzed at run time. In the event that an on-the-fly change of resolution is required, the change is made by modification of the Shader assembly code or of the graphics library commands.
