Updating graphical display content

A system for redirecting output of a graphic rich application to a destination display system, comprising:

• a content interception component configured to intercept a first content from a graphics rich content generation application that is rendering to a native graphic processing unit (GPU) rendering abstraction layer, by intercepting a rendering call;
• a redirection component operably coupled with the content interception component, and configured to redirect the intercepted content to a native GPU surface synchronization abstraction layer;
• and
• a synchronization component operably coupled with the redirection component, and configured to synchronize the intercepted content with an output surface that is rendering a second graphics content using the native GPU surface synchronization abstraction layer.

A computer-based method for redirecting output of a graphic rich application to a destination display system, comprising:

• calling a redirecting framework utility comprising injecting a dynamic link library (DLL) object into content rendering from a graphics rich content generation application to a surface of a native graphic processing unit (GPU) rendering abstraction layer, the DLL object:
• intercepting a first content from the graphics rich content generation application that is rendering to the native GPU rendering abstraction layer, comprising intercepting a rendering call from the graphics rich content generation application to the native GPU rendering abstraction layer;
• redirecting the first content associated with the rendering call to a native GPU surface synchronization abstraction layer;
• and
• synchronizing the intercepted content with an output surface that is rendering second graphics content using the native GPU surface synchronization abstraction layer, comprising using a synchronized surface sharing functionality of the native GPU surface synchronization abstraction layer to share a surface of the native GPU surface synchronization abstraction layer with another process.
