摘要
Display driver (40) with a frame memory (43) for temporarily storing image data representing a color image and a data bus for feeding RGB-formatted image data to said display driver (40). The display driver (2) comprises means for performing an encoding decision process (42) that is based on an analysis of the nature of a pixel cluster of said image data. The means for performing a decision process (42) allow the display driver (43) to decide whether a first compression format or a second compression format is to be applied for compression of said pixel cluster. The first compression means (33.1) perform a compression of said pixel cluster into said first compression format (quantized RGB), and the second compression means (33.2) perform a compression of said pixel cluster into said second compression format (color compressed). The pixel clusters and related compression format code are stored after compression in an available storage area of the frame memory (24) such that parts of said image data can be stored in said storage area in the first compression format and another part of said image data can be stored in said storage area in the second compression format. Said compression format code is used to perform a decision process allowing the display driver (20) to decide whether a first decompression format or a second decompression format is to be applied for decompression of said pixel cluster.
