Strobing a Clip

Use the Strobe option to create a clip that repeats a specified number of frames or fields without changing the duration of the clip. The repeated frames or fields replace the original frames or fields in the clip and the timewarp curve is automatically modified with new keyframes based on the values you specify for the strobe.

The following shows a clip strobed by frames with a repeat value of 2.

The following shows a clip strobed by field 1 with a repeat value of 3.

To apply a strobe to a clip:

1. Select a segment in the timeline and then press Ctrl+T to create a timewarp.
2. Select an option from the Progressive/Interlaced option box.
3. Select Strobe from the Timewarp Type box.
4. Specify the number of frames or fields to repeat in the Repeat field.
5. To edit the Strobe curve in the Timewarp Editor, double-click the timewarped segment to access the Timewarp Editor.
