Apple Compressor 3 - Manual (Page 258)

The following (legacy) deinterlacing methods are available in the Algorithm pop-up menu.
• Algorithm: Choose from one of four deinterlacing methods.
• Blur: Blends the odd and even fields together. This setting gives more importance
to temporal data and preserves motion better, but because individual frames consist
of a composite of both frames, they don’t look good when you pause playback.
• Even: Keeps the even fields and ignores the odd fields, avoiding motion blur.
• Odd: Keeps the odd fields and ignores the even fields, avoiding motion blur.
• Sharp: Looks at both fields to make all edges sharper. This setting gives more
importance to spatial data.
Fade In/Out
Adds a dissolve from and to a matte color at the beginning and end of the clip.
• Fade In Duration: Sets the duration of the fade.
• Fade Out Duration: Sets the duration of the fade.
• Fade In Opacity: Sets the opacity of the clip’s video at the first frame. A value of 0.0 sets
the clip video to be completely covered by the matte color. A value of 0.5 sets the clip
to be 50 percent covered by the matte color.
• Fade Out Opacity: Sets the opacity of the clip’s video at the last frame. A value of 0.0
sets the clip video to be completely covered by the matte color. A value of 0.5 sets the
clip to be 50 percent covered by the matte color.
• Fade Color: Sets the matte color. When clicked, the color picker appears where you can
choose the color to fade to and from. (The Fade In and Fade Out colors must be the
same.)
