Abstract
A method for detecting a screen tear in a display device for a given frame of video is described. The method includes retrieving an identification code associated with each pixel row of the frame of video and determining whether the retrieved identification code is same across pixel rows of the frame of video. If the identification code is found to be same across the pixel rows of the frame of video, no screen tear is found. On the other hand, a screen tear is detected if the identification code is found not to be same across the pixel rows. An indication of the detected screen tear is provided to the host machine to re-render the frame of video without such screen tear.
