Distorts the image so it appears to have been transmitted as an analog television signal.
Flagging
— Skews the top of the image toward the right, and the bottom of the image toward the left, as though the video signal has time base errors.Tearing
— Skews each row of the image toward the right, based on the brightness: another form of time base error.Edge Blanking
— The width, in Vuo Coordinates, of the black bars to draw along the left and right sides of the image, simulating the horizontal blanking interval.Bearding
— The brightness threshold at which light parts of the image turn dark, simulating the way analog video recorders react to video signal overload.Bearding Distance
— How far left or right to move the bearded areas, simulating the horizontal scan delay between overload and reaction to overload.Ghosting
— The strength of horizontal echoes, simulating long analog wave reflections.Ghosting Distance
— How far left or right to move each echo.Ringing
— The strength of horizontal oscillations, simulating short analog wave reflections. The distance is always 1 pixel, and every other ring is inverted.Noise Amount
— How much random chrominance noise to add to the image. More noise is added in dark areas of the image.Vertical Offset
— How far the image is vertically shifted, simulating loss of vertical sync.This node also applies some random variation to the above parameters, to produce an animated effect.
