ColorOps: Hotspots

In the S_ColorOps Plugin.

Generates a hotspot image containing areas of the source clip brighter than a given threshold. The colors of the hotspots should match the original source. This can be used for increasing contrast or finding the bright areas of a clip, but without changing the color saturation or hue of the result.

Inputs:

Source:  The clip to be processed.
        

Parameters:

Blur Input:   Default: 0,  Range: 0 or greater.
Allows smaller spots to be smoothed away before the hotspots are determined.

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

Saturation:   Default: 1,  Range: 0 or greater.
Scales the color saturation. Increase for more intense colors. Set to 0 for monochrome.

Threshold:   Default: 0.7,  Range: 0 or greater.
Include hotspots at any source areas that are brighter than this value.

Threshold Add Color:   Default rgb: [0 0 0].
This can be used to raise the threshold on a specific color and thereby reduce the hotspots generated on areas of the source clip containing that color.
