Abstract

A system and method for rendering video content is disclosed. Video content is retrieved from a network and rendered by a graphics processing unit (GPU). The retrieved video content is rendered when a display of the video content is in an application foreground, and stopped when the display of the video content is moved from the application foreground to an application background. The rendering of the video content is then resumed when the display of the video content is returned from the application background to the application foreground.
