Timewarps Render
Using
Determines the processing method when your Avid editing application render or rerenders
Timewarp effects.
The Original Preference, Duplicated Field, Both Fields, Interpolated Field, and VTR-Style
options are the same as those for Motion Effects Render Using (see the preceding
descriptions).
The Blended Interpolated and Blended VTR options are also available. These options add
pixel blending to the Interpolated Field or VTR-Style techniques. Your Avid editing
application blends, or averages, pixels from the original frames or fields to create
intermediate frames or fields. For example, at 25% speed, your Avid editing application
creates three blended images between outgoing Image A and incoming Image B. The first
blended image weights the pixels from Image A at 75% and Image B at 25%, the second
weights the pixels from Image A at 50% and Image B at 50%, and the third weights the
pixels from Image A at 25% and Image B at 75%. Objects in motion from Image A to
Image B appear to fade out of Image A and fade in to Image B.
Timewarp effects that render using Blended Interpolated or Blended VTR render less
quickly than Interpolated Field or VTR-Style.
Effects Quality
Render Using
Defines a global override for 3D effects that have HQ (Highest Quality) software
implementations. You select the HQ implementation or the standard implementation for
individual effects by clicking the HQ button in the Effect Editor. The following options are
available:
Quality Set in Each Effect: Effects render at the quality determined by the HQ setting
in the individual effects. This is the default.
Standard Quality: Effects render with the standard implementation.
Highest Quality: Effects render with the HQ implementation, if one exists for a given
effect. If an HQ implementation does not exist for a given effect, the effect renders with
the standard implementation.
