The present disclosure relates to methods and devices for display processing including an apparatus, e.g., a DPU, a compositor, a compositor backend, a DPU driver, and/or DPU firmware. In some aspects, the apparatus may receive content information for each of one or more layers of a frame. The apparatus may also determine whether the content information for each of the one or more layers includes at least one priority format. Additionally, the apparatus may determine a priority order of the one or more layers when the content information for at least one of the one or more layers includes at least one priority format. The apparatus may also map each of one or more display overlay resources to each of the one or more layers based on the determined priority order of the one or more layers.
