Blending

Name

blending.enabled

range

yes, no

default

yes

The graph shows how many frames blend and the weight of each frame.

Blending runs only when Frame rate is below the rate of the frames that reach it. These come from interpolation, or from pre-interpolation or the clip when interpolation is off.

Name

blending.fps

range

1 to 1000

default

60

Sets the output frame rate. A lower rate blends more interpolated frames into each output frame, so the blur is longer. From 960 fps, a blend has 5 frames at 240 fps, 17 at 60 fps and 33 at 30 fps.

Name

blending.intensity

range

0 to 4

default

1

Scales how many frames blend into each output frame. At 1 the blend covers the time of one output frame. At 2 the blur is twice as long, and at 0 there is no blur. How much blur looks good is up to you.

Name

blending.gamma

range

1 to 10

default

1

Sets how brightness blends. At 1 the blend is a plain average, and a bright spot fades into the dark around it. Raising it gives bright pixels more weight, so the spot leaves a bright streak. Only brightness blends this way. Colors blend as a plain average.

Name

blending.weighting

range

equal, gaussian, gaussian_sym, pyramid, ascending, descending, vegas, custom

default

equal

Sets how much each blended frame counts. The graph in the Blending section shows the weights from the first frame to the last. No weighting is correct, so pick the blur you like.
