LEAD Video Unsharp Mask Filter User Interface (2.0)
The Video Unsharp Mask Filter enhances edges and improves the quality of movies that look "washed out". The Unsharp Mask Video Effect produces better results than the Video Edge Enhance Effect, but is slower. The property page is shown in the figure below:
The Video Unsharp Mask property page provides a use interface for changing the filter's attributes.
Changes will be applied directly to the streaming media with the ability to set them permanently by selecting Apply or OK, or to abandon changes by selecting Cancel. Positioning the mouse pointer over a control displays general information for that control. The following table shows the controls and their descriptions:
