Frequently Asked Questions
What does the CRT effect actually do to the picture?
It lays horizontal scanlines over the frame and adds a green phosphor glow, the way an old tube monitor reads on camera — a full-frame grade, not a border or a sticker.
Can I use it without tracking anything?
Yes. Set the mode to None and you get the effect on its own, with no boxes or skeletons drawn over the picture.
Does it work on an uploaded video or only a webcam?
Both. Load a video file or open the webcam and the same effect applies live to whichever source is active.
Can I layer it with other looks?
Yes. CRT is a post-processing effect, so a Cinematic LUT grade underneath and Ghost Trails on top all stack with it rather than replacing it.
Will the scanlines show up in the recording?
Yes. Record captures the composited canvas, so the scanlines and glow are baked into the exported file exactly as you see them.
