Merging fields blends pixels in neighbouring field lines to reduce artefacts caused by motion jitter. Merge fields when you have interlaced material that you want to output to a progressive scan format.
To merge fields:
Value | Result |
---|---|
100% | The average pixel value is replicated to both fields in an F1/F2 merge-pair, resulting in total field merging. |
50% | Pixels on each line in an F1/F2 merge-pair are replaced by pixels defined by 50% of their original value and 50% of the blend, or field merge result. |
0% | No change is applied to the clip. |
After a short time, the result clip appears.
