Abstract
In an aspect of the disclosure, a method, a computer-readable medium, and an apparatus are provided. The apparatus may be a device. The device receives content to be displayed on a screen of the device. The device generates a picture based on the content. The device sends the picture to an on-screen display driver bypassing a thin client operating system of the device. The device replaces at least a portion of pixel data in a frame buffer of the device with the picture. The pixel data is presented on the screen. The device transfers the pixel data in the frame buffer to a display driver of the device. The display driver generates display signals based on the pixel data.
