ABSTRACT:
A graphical display system utilizes a plurality of graphics pipelines, a compositor, and application interface logic. The plurality of graphics pipelines are configured to render graphical data in parallel. The compositor is configured to define a composite data signal that is based on the graphical data rendered by each of the pipelines. The application interface logic is configured to retrieve configuration data indicative of a configuration of the compositor. The application interface logic is further configured to provide the configuration data to a graphics application, wherein the graphics application is configured to provide graphical data to the plurality of pipelines based on the configuration data.
