Thanks for that, I don’t mind at all if you post them and I rather like the 2 decimal places.
Nice idea, perhaps @shotcut and @brian want to implement a similar system.
Users can download the latest version with all the official filters and plug-ins and if they want the extras, then they can download them.
It will also help with collating all the filters from different posts into one place.
It is a front-end to the frei0r.baltan filter - a sort of ghost-like effect. The parameters do not seem to have much effect - they have some, but not much.
The clip I used has no transition. It cuts from the rider on the left to the rider coming in from the right. The filter created a ghostly transition. It’s a very strange and interesting filter.
Since this thread has morphed into pretty much all things filters, which is fantastic, this gives me an idea and here seems to be the right place to ask.
Of all of us you probably know webvfx the best, any new filters/effects that could be created this way?
I have used your route animator and credit roll generator, both work great, any others that can be made?
One that immediately comes to mind is a graphic of a magnifying glass that moves from left to right and the layer/clip under the lens is slightly magnified.
Saw it on a BBC News clip and it looked really nice.
Pretty soon we are going to run out of frei0r plug-ins so as another option coding in html/css/js is a heck of a lot easier than C++
Two more front-end filters to Frei0r effects - Posterize and Cartoon. Again there is some variation made using different parameters, but it isn’t a lot. The documentation is here:
When using these and the Baltan filter filter it is useful to increase the brightness to compensate for the filter’s decrease in brightness.
The MLT doculentation does not show a parameter, but the actual code does indeed have 2 parameters (width and height).
This is true, but the main problem is trying to get hold of the pixels of the underlying video clip, which I can’t find a way of doing. Dan gave me the code to do this for the GL-Transitions, but I don’t believe this data is exposed to the WebVfx interface to the Overlay HTML filter. If there is a way then I could probably do what you suggest.
Shotcut only implements 14 of the 85 or so Frei0r filters. However it does duplicate the functionality of some of the others. So there might still be quite a bit of life in them yet. The ones it uses are:
Found some time, so keyframes are now added to the filter in the ZIP file below. Adding keyframes is a bit fiddly and prone to errors. Debugging is a lot easier with the HTML Overlay filters using Chrome development tools.
RGB noise.zip (2.3 KB) <— DO NOT USE THIS (see below)
CORRECTION - The meta.qml file in the ZIP container is not correct, NOR IS THE ONE IN post 58 below. See post 63 for the new (corrected) ZIP container.
Just the other day I wanted an RGB split effect, and here it is. I took the most recent .zip files and installed them, and they worked great. I haven’t tried RGB noise yet, but I tried Glitch and RGB split (with 19.02).
