In modular video display systems, such as video wall systems, it is common to tile many separate display modules together to form a single display surface which has faint or unnoticeable seams. In such systems, the full resolution video signal is usually split into portions that correspond to the display tiles, and each portion of the video is shown on a different display tile. A uniform scan refresh method may be used for every tile, leading to the neighboring scan lines across some tile boundaries to be updated at different times. This effect, which may cause a temporal artifact for viewers of the video, can be greatly reduced by refreshing scan lines in alternate rows or columns of the display tiles in opposite directions, leading to scan lines across boundaries between tiles being updated at the same time.
