BlurChroma In the S_Blurs Plugin. Separates the source into luminance and chrominance components, blurs the chrominance and/or the luminance independently, and recombines them. You can also scale the luma and chroma independently to enhance or remove either. Inputs: Source:  The clip to be processed.

Parameters:

Blur Chroma:   Default: 0.5,  Range: 0 or greater.
The amount to blur the chrominance. This parameter can be adjusted using the Blur Chroma Widget.

Blur Luminance:   Default: 0,  Range: 0 or greater.
The amount to blur the luminance. This parameter can be adjusted using the Blur Luma Widget.

Blur Rel:   X & Y,   Default: [1 1],  Range: 0 or greater.
The relative horizontal and vertical blur widths. Set Blur Rel X to 0 for a vertical-only blur, or set Blur Rel Y to 0 for a horizontal-only blur. This parameter can be adjusted using the Blur Chroma 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 Chroma:   Default: 1,  Range: 0 or greater.
Scales the chrominance by this amount. Increase for more intense colors, decrease for muted colors.

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

Offset Result:   Default: 0,  Range: any.
Adds this gray value to the result (or subtracts if negative). 0 has no effect, .5 is middle gray, and 1 is white.

Subpixel:   Check-box,  Default: off,  Shared.
Enables blurring by subpixel amounts. Use this for smoother animation of the Blur Chroma or Blur Luminance parameters.

Mix With Source:   Default: 0,  Range: 0 to 1,  Shared.
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.
