Frame Controls pane
This pane of the Inspector offers automatic and customized settings for advanced image analysis,
including frame resizing, clip retiming, and deinterlacing.
Frame resizing would be necessary when transcoding between a high-definition (HD) format
such as 1080i and a standard-definition (SD) format such as DV-NTSC. An example of frame
retiming would be when transcoding between video formats with different frame rates such as
NTSC (29.97 frames per second) and PAL (25 frames per second).
Filters pane
You use the Filters pane to add filters to your setting. You can use filters to perform tasks such as
gamma correction and noise removal.
Select the checkbox next to any of the filters you want to include in a particular setting. Use each
filter’s sliders or arrow controls to adjust your filter settings as necessary.
