Flicker Control

The Flicker Control effect is a sophisticated tool designed to reduce or add flickering in video clips. This effect can be particularly useful when dealing with footage that has been affected by artificial lighting or when the video has been captured with a high-speed camera under certain lighting conditions.

Setting	Description
Mode	Reduction A mode of the Flicker Control that aims to reduce existing flicker within the footage without specifying the type of flicker. Addition A mode of the Flicker Control used when you wish to add a specific frequency of flicker to the footage, often for creative effect.
Reduction Mode	Available under the "Reduction" mode, this setting lets you choose the method for reducing flicker. Temporal blend A reduction method that blends frames over time to reduce flicker. It is an option under the "Reduction Mode" setting. Histogram smoothing A reduction method that smooths the histogram of the image over time to reduce flicker. It is an option under the "Reduction Mode" setting.
Analysis Window	Determines the number of frames the effect analyzes for flicker. It can be set from 1 to 3.
Sensitivity	Adjusts the sensitivity of the effect to flicker detection. The range is from 0.01 to 3.00.
Type	Targets the flicker reduction to specific tonal ranges: All Highlights Midtones Shadows
Flicker Frequency	Available under the "Addition" mode, it allows setting a specific frequency for the flicker to target, ranging from 0 to 100Hz.
Use motion compensation	If checked, the effect will compensate for motion within the footage, which can help in improving flicker reduction.
Show mask only	When enabled, the effect will only show the mask of the areas that are affected by the flicker control, useful for fine-tuning.
Calculate	This button appears when "Histogram smoothing" is selected, and it will analyze the footage to apply the effect based on the calculated values.
Reset	Resets the settings for the current mode to their default values.
