Tachyon and Dark Energy

Transform supports Cinnafilm Tachyon and Dark Energy for advanced frame rate conversion, de-interlacing, noise reduction, film grain simulation and upres conversions.

For example the following composition uses the TachyonDarkEnergy property to convert the input to 720p24 and encodes the output as AVC-Intra Class 100:

---
input:
  container:
  - name: input1
    video:
    - name: v1
output:
  container:
  - name: output1
    video:
    - route:
        name: v1
      properties:
        Format: avci_100_720p24
        TachyonDarkEnergy:
          MotionCompensation: true

The TachyonDarkEnergy object supports the following properties:

PropertyTypeDescription
MotionCompensationbooleanEnables or disables motion compensated frame rate conversion.
InverseTelecinebooleanEnables or disables inverse telecine. This mode de-interlaces the input and converts to the output frame rate by removing duplicate fields or frames.
ForwardTelecinebooleanEnables or disables forward telecine. This mode converts to the output frame rate and field order by inserting duplicate fields or frames.
NoiseReductionbooleanEnables or disables noise reduction and film grain removal.
