TimeWarp

Lets you slow down, speed up, or even reverse selected frames in a clip without necessarily altering its overall length.

Connection Type	Connection Name	Function
Input	unnamed	The sequence to warp. NOTE: When you connect the TimeWarp node, frame 1 is automatically keyframed as the first frame.

The sequence to warp.

NOTE: When you connect the TimeWarp node, frame 1 is automatically keyframed as the first frame.

Control (UI)	Knob (Scripting)	Default Value	Function
TimeWarp Tab
input frame	lookup	1	Sets which frame of the input sequence appears at the current frame. For example, you could set frame 10 of the input to output at frame 5, effectively doubling the speed of the sequence.
curve editor	N/A	N/A	Click to open up the Curve Editor.
input length	length	1	Sets the length of time to average together to produce the output frame. Click the set to df/dt button to automatically set the inputlength to the correct formula based on the derivative of the inputframe.
set to df/dt	N/A	N/A	Click to automatically set the inputlength to the correct formula based on the derivative of the inputframe.
filter	filter	box	Sets the type of filtering to apply to the time warp: • none - passes fractional frame numbers to the input, which is useful if the input can calculate its own frame interpolation. • nearest - rounds the center of the range to nearest integer frame. • box - uses a weighted average of several frames together to cover the output range.
