Download this project: http://cvs.cinelerra.org/~j6t/bigtest.tar (maybe you have to edit the bigtest.xml file to adjust the asset paths). Load it into cinelerra and go to the first frame (ignore the rest of the project). It shows two overlay plugins in action. They implement this computation: output = mask * blur(input) + invert(mask) * input The Overlay plugins achieve the multiplications in the equation, the addition is achieved by setting the track overlay option to "Add". When I played around with the plugin, I found that the processing option "Top first" does not make much sense, because when the data from the "Top" is used, it is still from the previous frame. > - do I need always to share this plugin between exactly two tracks? I don't think so, I think it can be any number of tracks. > - what does the setting "ouput to top/bottom" mean? It tells whether the result replaces the data in the top-most or the bottom-most of all the tracks where the plugin is shared. I don't know whether setting this to "Bottom" is useful. > - what happens with the original output of the tracks? All tracks but the selected output track remain unchanged and enter the usual track overlay pipeline. -- Hannes _______________________________________________ Cinelerra mailing list [email protected] https://init.linpro.no/mailman/skolelinux.no/listinfo/cinelerra
