Linear Retime
 
 
 

Stretches or contracts the timings of a selected range of frames. The retiming can be cushioned using a graph.

Requires an Input (Any).

Produces an Output (Any).

Retiming

Source Clip Range

Specifies the frames in the source to be used as Start and End frames when retiming.

Duration

Sets the number of frames to retime your clip into. By default, Dest Size is set to your current clip length.

Graph Preset

The graph displays the method of mapping of source to destination timing. Adjusting the graph defines the number of destination frames to be created from the source. However, since the retiming is linear, you cannot, for example, ease in and out.

The Graph Preset can be one of the following:

Uniform: The frames in your clip are copied into the destination number of frames. For example, a ten frame clip with a destination clip size of 20 is copied frame 1 into frames 1 and 2, frame 2 into frames 3 and 4 etc.

Forward Fade: The clip is reversed and copied into the destination number of frames. For example, a ten frame clip with a destination clip size of 20 is copied frame 1 into frames 20 and 19, frame 2 into frame 18 and 17 etc.

Backward Fade: The clip is first played forward and then backward into the destination number of frames.

User Defined: Lets you set your own mapping of source to destination timings. The horizontal axis represents the source clip timings, and the vertical axis represents the destination timings.

Frames Before/After

Specifies the number of frames before and after each frame to consider when computing each frame generated by the retiming.

Subframe Blend

When enabled, sub frames are blended together to produce a smoother motion.
