BlurChannels In the S_Blurs Plugin. Blurs each channel of the source clip by an arbitrary amount using a gaussian, triangle, or box filter. This effect should render quickly even with very large Width values. Use the Blur Rel X and Y parameters for a more horizontal or vertical blur direction. Inputs: Source:  The clip to be processed.

Parameters:

Blur Amount:   Default: 0.5,  Range: 0 or greater,  Shared.
Scales the width of the blur for all channels. This parameter can be adjusted using the Blur Amount Widget.

Blur Red:   Default: 0,  Range: 0 or greater.
The blur width of the red channel, relative to Blur Amount. This parameter can be adjusted using the Blur Amount Widget.

Blur Green:   Default: 0.5,  Range: 0 or greater.
The blur width of the green channel, relative to Blur Amount. This parameter can be adjusted using the Blur Amount Widget.

Blur Blue:   Default: 1,  Range: 0 or greater.
The blur width of the blue channel, relative to Blur Amount. This parameter can be adjusted using the Blur Amount Widget.

Blur X:   Default: 1,  Range: 0 or greater.
The relative blur amount in the horizontal direction. If 0, a vertical-only blur is performed. This parameter can be adjusted using the Blur Amount Widget.

Blur Y:   Default: 1,  Range: 0 or greater.
The relative blur amount in the vertical direction. If 0, a horizontal-only blur is performed. This parameter can be adjusted using the Blur Amount Widget.

Filter:   Popup menu,  Default: GAUSS.
The type of convolution filter to blur with.

BOX:  uses a rectangular shaped filter.

TRIANGLE:  smoother, uses a pyramid shaped filter.

GAUSS:  smoothest, uses a gaussian shaped filter.

Scale Result:   Default: 1,  Range: 0 or greater,  Shared.
Scales the brightness of the result.

Scale Red:   Default: 1,  Range: 0 or greater.
Scales the blurred red channel.

Scale Green:   Default: 1,  Range: 0 or greater.
Scales the blurred green channel.

Scale Blue:   Default: 1,  Range: 0 or greater.
Scales the blurred blue channel.

Subpixel:   Check-box,  Default: off,  Shared.
Enables blurring by subpixel amounts. Use this for smoother animation of any of the blur amount parameters.

Offset Darks:   Default: 0,  Range: any.
Adds this gray value to the darker regions of the result. This can be negative to increase contrast.

Offset Red:   Default: 0,  Range: any.
Adds this value to the red channel of the result.

Offset Green:   Default: 0,  Range: any.
Adds this value to the green channel of the result.

Offset Blue:   Default: 0,  Range: any.
Adds this value to the blue channel of the result.

Mix With Source:   Default: 0,  Range: 0 to 1.
Interpolates between the blurred result (0) and the original source (1). 0.1 can give a nice misty effect since it mixes only a little of the source in.
