Supporting Nonstandard Display Modes

A DirectX 9.0 version driver for a device that supports any nonstandard display modes, such as the 10-bits-per-channel (10:10:10:2) display and render target format, must respond to requests to enumerate these extended nonstandard display modes. In addition, the DirectX 9.0 driver must be able to perform operations that enable switching between standard and nonstandard display modes. The following sections describe how drivers support nonstandard display modes:
