Also, updated GIT Manual to add these plugins to the list of "Innovative Features" in the Introduction section:
The Blend Algebra/Blend Program plugins provide a methodology for developers to program new effects quickly while testing different combinations without spending time to restart, recompile, reload your project, reattach plugins, and so on.
Not sure if there are other NLEs out there that have this versatility, but it is quite special!
Perhaps I'd prefer to say somehow more precise (feel free to improve my sentence): The Blend Algebra/Blend Program plugins provide the advanced feature of combining and modifying color pixels and transparencies of several tracks according to a mathematic algorithm written entirely by the user in the form of compact and simple piece of code. Such user defined algorithms (blend functions) are compiled, dynamically linked and immediately executed inside Cinelerra on the fly without the need to restart application, reload project, reattach plugins etc. _______________________________________________________________________________ Georgy Salnikov NMR Group Novosibirsk Institute of Organic Chemistry Lavrentjeva, 9, 630090 Novosibirsk, Russia Phone +7-383-3307864 Email [email protected] _______________________________________________________________________________
