1. An apparatus comprising: an input configured to receive image data corresponding to a current image frame and image data corresponding to a target image frame; contributing color selection logic configured to: obtain based on received image data, an old frame specific contributing color (FSCC old ) for the current image frame and a target frame specific contributing color (FSCC target ) for the target image frame; determine whether a transition artifact mitigation condition is met, wherein the transition artifact mitigation conditions includes the FSCC old including only two component colors having non-zero intensities and the FSCC target including three component colors having non-zero intensities and the FSCC old including three component colors having non-zero intensities and the FSCC target including only two component colors having non-zero intensities; in response to a transition artifact mitigation condition being determined to be true, determine whether any component colors of the FSCC old are greater than a first threshold intensity; in response to determining that at least one component color of the FSCC old has a greater intensity than the first threshold intensity, reduce intensities of component colors of FSCC oid that are over the first threshold intensity to generate a next frame specific contributing color (FSCC next ) for a next image frame; in response to the transition artifact mitigation conditions being determined to be false or in response to determining that none of the component colors of the FSCC old have intensities greater than the first threshold, setting FSCC next equal to FSCC target or to an intermediate FSCC having component color values between FSCC old and FSCC target ; and use the FSCC next to display the next image frame.
