Abstract
Methods and apparatuses are provided for alignment of hardware and software Vsync signals through filtering out delayed timestamp signals in a hardware timestamp signal used to generate the software Vsync. The alignment may occur when a display client is operating in a video mode but not a command mode. A compositor or processing unit may receive a hardware Vsync signal from a display using a video mode, generate a hardware timestamp signal based on the hardware Vsync signal, determine a delay for a pulse in the hardware timestamp signal based on a delay for a set of previous frames, determine whether the delay for the pulse is over a threshold, and control rendering and transmission of a frame to the display based on the delay for the pulse being over the threshold. Thus, accurate Vsync signal synchronization may occur.
