Abstract
A device and method for rendering content that includes analyzing previous and/or subsequent temporal portions of a content signal to determine elements that are positionally related to elements of a current portion of the content signal. The current portion of the content signal is rendered on a primary rendering device, such as a television, while the elements that are positionally related to elements of a current portion of the content signal are concurrently rendered on a secondary rendering device. In one embodiment, the elements that are rendered on the secondary rendering device may be rendered at a lower resolution and/or lower frame rate than the rendered current portion of the content signal. In one embodiment, at least one of previous and subsequent temporal portions of a content signal may be analyzed at a lower resolution than the content signal.
