There are three presets: two for film and one for video. By “film,” we refer to footage scanned from celluloids, while “video” is digitized from an analog video tape or captured by a digital camera. There are various types of film and video defects that need to be addressed. Typical film defects include blotches of dust, flicker, and scratches, while typical video defects consist of interlace and dropouts.
Both film and video may share common defects such as noise, and any film or video footage should undergo stabilization.
The primary distinction between film and video lies in the film grain, a natural component (similar to the canvas texture for oil painting) of the film. Therefore, in most cases, it needs to be preserved.
Vertical scratches are exclusive to film, necessitating an additional preset for film. If film and video are encoded with interlace, deinterlace preprocessing will be automatically applied across all presets.
