A method of performing compression of image data for at least one image is described. The method comprises receiving image data of at least a part of the at least one image, encoding the received image data into at least one compressed data block, applying at least one bandwidth limit to the at least one compressed data block, and outputting the at least one bandwidth limited compressed data block to a buffer. The method further comprises dynamically updating the at least one bandwidth limit applied to the at least one compressed data block base at least partly on a fill level of the buffer.
