Weave / WeaveColumns / WeaveRows

Weave (clip)

Weave is the opposite of SeparateFields: it takes pairs of fields from the input video clip and combines them together to produce interlaced frames. The new clip has half the frame rate and frame count. Weave uses the frame-parity information in the source clip to decide which field to put on top. If it gets it wrong, use ComplementParity beforehand or SwapFields afterwards.

All AviSynth filters keep track of field parity, so Weave will always join the fields together in the proper order. If you want the other order, you’ll have to use ComplementParity, AssumeTFF or AssumeBFF beforehand or SwapFields afterwards.

From verions 2.5.6 this filter raises an exception if the clip is already frame-based. You may want to use AssumeFieldBased to force weave a second time. Prior versions did a no-op for materials that was already frame- based.

WeaveColumns (clip, int period) WeaveRows (clip, int period)

WeaveColumns is the opposite of SeparateColumns: it weaves the columns of period frames into a single output frame. The number of frames of the new clip is the ceiling of the number of frames of the input clip divided by period. WeaveColumns is a relatively slow filter due to the sparse pixel placing required by the algorithm. In some applications it may be faster to use TurnLeft/Right with WeaveRows.

WeaveRows is the opposite of SeparateRows: it weaves the rows of period frames into a single output frame. The number of frames of the new clip is the ceiling of the number of frames of the input clip divided by period. WeaveRows is a relatively quick filter, typically costing 1 output frame blit.
