Video filters are utilitarian in nature, and can help prepare a project for broadcast output.

Fix Method: Sets the type of fix to be made to the image: Luminance or Reduce Saturation.

Deinterlaces an interlaced object using one of several possible methods.

This filter causes rasterization in 3D groups. For more information on rasterization, see About Rasterization.

Parameters in the Inspector

Dominant Field: Selects the dominant field. Value can be Upper or Lower.
Method: Sets how the object is interlaced. This pop-up menu has three options:
- Duplicate: The nondominant field is eliminated and the data from the dominant field is duplicated to fill in the missing lines.
- Interpolate: The nondominant field is eliminated and a new field is created by averaging each pair of adjacent video lines to create new ones.
- Blend: The nondominant field is eliminated and new lines are created by averaging the eliminated line with each pair of adjacent video lines.
Mix: Sets the percentage of the original image to be blended with the filtered image.
