Quick Start

Here's a quick overview of the workflow:

1.   Create a node tree with Kronos. See Connecting Kronos.
2.   Retime your footage. See Retiming the Sequence.
3.   If necessary, add motion blur to the retimed footage. See Adding Motion Blur.
4.   If you’re not happy with the results, adjust the vector generation parameters. See Refining the Results.

TIP:  You can check Use GPU if available in the Kronos controls to have the node run on the graphics processing unit (GPU) rather than the central processing unit (CPU). The output between the GPU and CPU is identical, but using the GPU can significantly improve processing performance.

You can select the GPU to use in the Preferences. Press Shift+S to open the Preferences dialog, make sure you’re viewing the Preferences tab, and set GPU Device to the device you want to use. You must restart Nuke for the change to take effect.

The GPU processing requires certain NVIDIA GPUs and CUDA drivers. For more information on the minimum requirements, please refer to the Nuke Release Notes available in Help > Release Notes.

If you are using a render license of Nuke, you need to add --gpu on the command line.
