Abstract
A device and a method for buffering a graphical overlay to be applied to an image is disclosed. A graphical overlay description specifying content, size, and position in the image of a graphical element of the graphical overlay is obtained, and the graphical overlay is divided into a plurality of sequential line fragments. For each line fragment it is determined, using the graphical overlay description, whether the line fragment overlaps a part of the graphical element. On condition that the line fragment overlaps a part of the graphical element, information representing the part of the graphical element is buffered in a buffer memory for the line fragment. On condition that the line fragment does not overlap any part of the graphical element, a run-length coding representing identical pixels is buffered in the buffer memory for the line fragment.
