Fields [Fld]

Image:Icon_Fields.png

The Fields tool is a robust multi-purpose utility offering several functions related to interlaced video frames. It interpolates separate video fields into video frames, or separates video frames into individual fields. It can be used to assist in the standards conversion of PAL to NTSC, and provides the ability to process fields and frames for specific portions of a flow.

For more information about how Fusion handles fields processing, consult the Frame Formats chapter in this manual.

Controls Tab


Operation

This control is used to select the type of operation the tool will perform. See below for a closer explanation.


Process Mode

This control is used to select the field's format used for the output image. See below for a closer explanation.





Operation


Do Nothing

This causes the images to be effected by the Process Mode selection exclusively.


Strip Field 2

This removes field 2 from the input image stream, which shortens the image to half of the original height.


Strip Field 1

This removes field 1 from the input image stream, which shortens the image to half of the original height.


Strip Field 2 & Interpolate

This removes field 2 from the input image stream and inserts a field interpolated from field 1 so that image height is maintained. Should be supplied with frames, not fields.


Strip Field 1 & Interpolate

This removes field 1 from the input image stream and inserts a field interpolated from field 2 so that image height is maintained. Should be supplied with frames, not fields.


Interlace

This combines fields from the input image stream(s). If supplied with one image stream, each pair of frames will be combined to form half of the amount of double height frames. If supplied with two image streams, single frames from each stream will be combined to form double height images.


De-Interlace

This separates fields from one input image stream. This will produce double the amount of half height frames.


Reverse Field Dominance

When selected, the Field Order or Dominance of the image will be swapped.





Process


Full Frames

This forces frame processing. Useful for processing frames in a part of a flow that is otherwise field processing.


NTSC Fields

This forces NTSC Field Processing. Useful for processing fields in a part of a flow that is otherwise frame processing.


PAL Fields

This forces PAL Field Processing. Useful for processing fields in a part of a flow that is otherwise frame processing.


PAL Fields (Reversed)

This forces PAL swapped Field Processing.


NTSC Fields (Reversed)

This forces NTSC swapped Field Processing.


Auto

This attempts to match the mode of its input images. Fields is used if the input types are mixed.
