BS_ChromaBlur

Filterv1coreNeeds full inputForge

Overview

Blurs colour and leaves luminance alone. The eye resolves luma far more finely than chroma, so sensor colour noise, compression blocks and blue-screen mottling all die here at no visible cost to sharpness.

How to

How-to

Set size in pixels; only the colour is blurred, the luminance stays sharp.
Use it on sensor colour noise, compression blocks or a keyed edge's chroma fringe before keying.
Larger sizes read as a soft colour bleed; luminance detail never moves.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Default	What it does
size	Float	6.0	The effect's size/radius in pixels.
disabled	Bool	false	Bypass: the node passes its first input through untouched (D in the graph). The knobs keep their values for when it comes back.
label	Text		A note shown under the node in the graph — what this node is FOR. Never affects the render or the cache.
hide_input	Bool	false	Draw the node without its input wire — a tidy graph for a node whose source is obvious (a Dot, a viewer tap).
