Target Tab

Fade In/Out

This filter applies a fade in and/or out to your video in order to
aid the encoding process. You should use this filter if your source
video has a lot of fast motion in the first few frames. The fade in
gives ProCoder a “running start” so it can encode your video more
efficiently.

Gamma Correction

This filter adjusts your video’s gamma settings.

Gaussian Blur

This filter applies a Gaussian blur to the video.

Median

This filter is designed to improve picture quality by removing
single-pixel defects without affecting the sharpness.

Pulldown

This filter offers conversion without interpolation for progressive-
to-interlaced (i.e. film-to-video) file conversion. This preserves full
spatial image quality and creates target fields that are selected from
the nearest temporal source frame. Displaying the resulting file
on a progressive display, such as a computer monitor, produces
very noticeable interlacing artifacts. However, displaying this on an
interlaced display, such as a television, produces very good image
quality. This method is generally used when cinematographic
footage is encoded to a DVD and played on a TV.

Relative Crop

Remove unwanted edges on the video with this filter. This is often
used for removing any edge blanking or other unwanted video
information from the top or bottom of the video frame.

Rotate

This filter provides 90-degree rotation and axis-flipping for the
video.

Sharpen

This filter sharpens the video using the "unsharpen mask" technique.

Temporal Noise Reducer This filter removes noise by using temporal noise reduction.

Temporal noise reduction is effective for removing analog noise.

Video Inverse Telecine
Filter

Use this filter to inverse telecine 2-3 telecined videos.
