1. A method comprising:
- scanning, through a processor of a data processing device communicatively coupled to a memory, display data to be rendered on a display unit communicatively coupled to the data processing device for boundaries of playable video content therein;
detecting, by the processor, a command to play the video content on the display unit; and
in response to detecting the command, rendering, through the processor, a portion of the display data outside the boundaries of the video content at a reduced level compared to a portion of the display data within the boundaries on the display unit;
wherein the rendering of the portion of the display data outside the boundaries of the video content at the reduced level is performed for a duration that the video content is played on the display unit.

Abstract
A method includes scanning, through a processor of a data processing device communicatively coupled to a memory, display data to be rendered on a display unit communicatively coupled to the data processing device for boundaries of one or more virtual object(s) therein. The method also includes rendering, through the processor, a portion of the display data outside the boundaries of the one or more virtual object(s) at a reduced level compared to a portion of the display data within the boundaries on the display unit.

7. A non-transitory medium, readable through a data processing device and including instructions embodied therein that are executable through the data processing device, comprising:
-
instructions to scan, through a processor of the data processing device communicatively coupled to a memory, display data to be rendered on a display unit communicatively coupled to the data processing device for boundaries of playable video content therein; detecting, by the processor, a command to play the video content on the display unit; and instructions responsive to detecting the command to render, through the processor, a portion of the display data outside the boundaries of the video content at a reduced level compared to a portion of the display data within the boundaries on the display unit; wherein the rendering of the portion of the display data outside the boundaries of the video content at the reduced level is performed for a duration that the video content is played on the display unit. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11)

12. A data processing device comprising:
-
a memory; and a processor communicatively coupled to the memory, the processor being configured to execute instructions to; scan display data to be rendered on a display unit communicatively coupled to the data processing device for boundaries of playable video content therein, detect a command to play the video content on the display unit; and in response to detecting the command, render a portion of the display data outside the boundaries of the video content at a reduced level compared to a portion of the display data within the boundaries on the display unit; wherein the rendering of the portion of the display data outside the boundaries of the video content at the reduced level is performed for a duration that the video content is played on the display unit. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17)
