TimeDisplace Displaces the Source clip by variable amounts in time depending on the brightness values of a Displace input. Inputs: Source: The input to process. In Batch, it is recommended that this input be a clip of frames rather than another node. Displace: Determines the amount of time displacement. Where the Displace input is white the Source is time-shifted by a number of frames given by White Time Shift, and where it is black the Source is shifted by Black Time Shift. Gray areas are time-shifted by the appropriately interpolated amount. This input can be optionally blurred using the Blur Displace parameter. If this input is not provided, the Source input is used for the displacement matte instead.

Parameters:

Load Preset: Push-button .
Brings up the Preset Browser to browse all available presets for this effect.

Save Preset: Push-button .
Brings up the Preset Save dialog to save a preset for this effect.

Black Time Shift: Default: -10, Range: any.
Time shift by this many frames where the Displace input is black.

White Time Shift: Default: 10, Range: any.
Time shift by this many frames where the Displace input is white.

Shift Rel To: Popup menu,  Default: CurrentFrame .
Selects relative or absolute time-shifting.

Frame 1: Time shift to an absolute frame number, relative to thefirst frame.

CurrentFrame: Time shift relative to the current frame.

Interp Frames: Check-box,  Default: off.
Selects the method to use for non-integer frame number references. If disabled, the nearest integer frame number is used with no interpolation, which usually gives visible edges between the time slices. If enabled, a weighted interpolation is performed between the two nearest integer frame numbers, which smooths the results between the time slices.

Blur Displace: Default: 0.1, Range: 0 or greater.
Blurs the Displace input by this amount before using. This can be used to soften the edges or quantization artifacts of the Displace input, and smooth out the time displacements.

Params2:

Params3:

Mocha: Default: 0, Range: 0 or greater, Shared .
Brings up the Mocha window for tracking footage and generating masks.

Blur Mocha: Default: 0, Range: 0 or greater, Shared .
Blurs the Mocha Mask by this amount before using. This can be used to soften the edges or quantization artifacts of the mask, and smooth out the time displacements.

Mocha Opacity: Default: 1, Range: 0 to 1, Shared .
Controls the strength of the Mocha mask. Lower values reduce the intensity of the effect.

Invert Mocha: Check-box,  Default: off, Shared .
If enabled, the black and white of the Mocha Mask are inverted before applying the effect.

Show Mocha Only: Check-box,  Default: off, Shared .
Bypass the effect and show the Mocha Mask itself.

Bypass Mocha: Check-box,  Default: off, Shared .
Ignore the Mocha Mask and apply the effect to the entire source clip.
