Not exactly so. Blend Algebra uses float always, doing the conversions if the color model is not float already. Also it uses alpha always, imitating it if the color model itself does not have it. And between RGB, YUV, HSV it uses by default that mode which is declared in the function (or the project's color model if the function declares nothing). The user can override the function's color model in the plugin dialog. He cannot override float and alpha usage, but it is possible to inquire inside the function which native color space is used in the project and if it has alpha channel or not (outside the function). > > and it just seemed interesting to me to see the differences this makes > > from patchbay (I chose YUV media on purpose, for the test, because > > they are the most common).

Many plugins work in all modes just because the particular color model does not matter (like plugins that transform only geometry and do not transform colors). Other plugins also work in all modes because they do the necessary color space conversions (like Chromakeys). I'd expect, there are also a few color model dependent ones. In RGBA-Float some plugins can clip internally, to investigate it is a distinct work. But clipping can occur later depending on the output format when rendering, or on the display driver, or on the usage of opengl accelerators. For example, unclipped R = -1.0 is displayed as black by the opengl driver and as red by the X11 driver. _______________________________________________________________________________ Georgy Salnikov NMR Group Novosibirsk Institute of Organic Chemistry Lavrentjeva, 9, 630090 Novosibirsk, Russia Phone +7-383-3307864 Email s...@nmr.nioch.nsc.ru _______________________________________________________________________________ -- Cin mailing list Cin@lists.cinelerra-gg.org https://lists.cinelerra-gg.org/mailman/listinfo/cin
