Adding Media, Retiming, and Remastering
The reTiming parameter has four options:
•
None: No retiming is applied, and the clip plays at its original speed.
•
Speed: Lets you change the speed of a clip using a simple multiplier. For example, .5
returns a clip twice the length of the original, that plays in slow motion.
•
Remap: Allows you to change the speed of a clip with a curve, with the X axis
representing the input frame number and Y representing the frame it’s remapped to.
•
Convert: The Convert option of the reTiming parameter provides an advanced
processing method for converting media to other formats. For more information on
using the Convert option for format conversion, see “
The Remap option creates an ease-in effect, slowing the first part of a clip and
accelerating it as the clip near the end.
Both the Speed and Remap options can smooth the effect of slow-motion strobing by
blending frames using either the Blend or Nearest option in the retimeMode pop-up
menu. Blend averages frames together and Nearest takes the frame right below the
specified frame. For example, if frame 5.7 is needed, frame 5 is used.
The Convert option provides a high-quality method of processing speed changes.
Speed Parameters
If you select the Speed option, the following parameters appear:
Speed
The speed of the clip is multiplied by this value. For example, a value of .5 slows the clip
to 50 percent. A value of 2 speeds up the clip by 200 percent.
