DissolveLuma In the S_Dissolves Plugin. Transitions between two input clips using a pattern derived from their luminances. One clip often appears to emerge through the other. The Dissolve Amt parameter should be animated to control the transition speed. Inputs: From:  Starts the transition with this clip. To:  Ends the transition with this clip.

Parameters:

Dissolve Amt:   AutoTransition,  Default: 0,  Range: -0.5 to 1.5,  Shared.
The transition ratio between the From and To inputs. A value of 0 gives only the From input and a value of 1 gives only the To input. By default this parameter automatically animates from 0 to 1 to perform a complete transition.

Softness:   Default: 0.1,  Range: 0 to 1.
Increase for softer and slower transitions.

Smooth Pattern:   Default: 0,  Range: 0 to 1.
If positive, a blur is applied to the transition pattern. This can reduce noise and give clearer edges to transition lines.

Use Luma Of:   Popup menu,  Default: Difference.
Determines how the transition pattern is generated from the clips' luminance values.

Difference:  similar areas transition first, different areas last.

Subtract:  areas where the first clip is brighter transition first, and areas where the second clip is brighter transition last.

Mult:  areas where both images are bright transition first, and areas where either is dark are last.

Screen:  areas where either image is bright transition first, and areas where both are dark transition last.

From:  dark areas of the first clip disappear first, bright areas last.

To:  bright areas of the second clip appear first, dark areas last.

Invert Pattern:   Check-box,  Default: off.
If enabled, the transition pattern is reversed in time.
