8.5 Convert
The Convert menu enables control of motion processing to improve the conversion
performance of stationary content.
8.5.1 Motion Processing
•
Motion Process:
Enables motion compensation.
•
Enhanced Motion:
When used together with the Still Process option, Enhanced
Motion detects constant motion and applies an aperture with full (progressive) vertical
frequency response.
•
Still Process:
Uses powerful motion detection techniques to extract the maximum
resolution from interlaced sources while format or standards converting. The benefits
of this processing are prominent on static logos and computer-generated overlays.
•
Enhanced Still:
Adds field motion detection to still processing. This prevents artifacts
on moving repetitive patterns.
•
Enhanced Film:
Applies an aperture with full progressive frequency response where
the input is film transported by an interlaced video rate input, with cadence enabled.
•
Enhanced De-interlace:
Replaces missing lines with a gradient between the
previous and following lines. This control improves the appearance of de-interlaced
images and is useful when dealing with complex shapes.
•
Clean Cut:
Prevents temporal filtering across a cut in scenes, which can result in
several frames either side of the cut being a mix of the two different scenes.

8.5.2 Up Conversion
•
Clean Edge Upconversion:
Enables the Texture Adaptive Upconversion (TAU)
process. TAU helps to adapt away any horizontal ringing (vertical edges), common in
very high-frequency graphics.
