-Tweaking is defined as changing a parameter while playing -- it can be small changes or small motion increments performed in a series. These changes are recorded as a series of new keyframes on the timeline. Enable automatic keyframe mode by enabling the automatic keyframe toggle, that is \textit{Generate keyframes while tweaking}. In automatic keyframe mode, every time you tweak a key-framable parameter it creates a keyframe on the timeline. Since keyframes affect playback, you should enable generate keyframes just before you need a keyframe and disable when your parameter changes are complete. So turn on when ready to make changes and turn off when done!
+Tweaking is defined as changing a parameter while playing -- it can be small changes or small motion increments performed in a series. These changes are recorded as a series of new keyframes on the timeline. Enable automatic keyframe mode by enabling the automatic keyframe toggle, that is \textit{Generate keyframes while tweaking}. In automatic keyframe mode, every time you tweak a key-framable parameter it creates a keyframe on the timeline (visible by activating the respective \textit{Camera x, y, z} and \textit{Projector x, y, z} curves). Since keyframes affect playback, you should enable generate keyframes just before you need a keyframe and disable when your parameter changes are complete. So turn on when ready to make changes and turn off when done!
Also, before making a change, be sure to check the \textit{View} pulldown and make the desired parameter visible with the enable checkmark. The location where the automatic keyframe is generated is under the insertion point. If the timeline is playing back during a tweak, several automatic keyframes may be generated as you change the parameter. When automatic keyframe mode is disabled, adjusting a parameter adjusts the keyframe immediately preceding the insertion point. For example, if two fade keyframes exist and the insertion point is between them, changing the fader changes the first keyframe.

-Camera and projector translation is represented by two parameters: \textit{x} and \textit{y}, making it difficult to adjust with curves. \CGG{} solves this problem by relying on automatic keyframes. With a video track loaded, move the insertion point to the beginning of the track and enable automatic keyframe mode. Move the projector slightly in the compositor window to create a keyframe. Then go forward several seconds. Move the projector a long distance to create another keyframe and emphasize motion. This creates a second projector box in the compositor, with a line joining the two boxes. The joining line is the motion path. If you create more keyframes, more boxes are created. Once all the desired keyframes are created, disable automatic keyframe mode.

Move the projector a long distance to create another keyframe and emphasize motion. This moves the projector box to its new position. If you create more keyframes, we can move the box several times. Once all the desired keyframes are created, disable automatic keyframe mode.
-Dragging the auto curve with tweaking off, adjusts the previous keyframe. With tweaking on, if no keyframe is at the timeline position, then a new one is created at that position and the modification value is applied. If you are halfway between two keyframes, the first projector box is adjusted while the second one stays the same. The video does not appear to move in step with the first keyframe. This is because halfway between two keyframes, the projector translation is interpolated. In order to set the second keyframe you will need to move after the second keyframe.

With tweaking on, if no keyframe is at the timeline position, then a new one is created at that position and the modification value is applied. If you are halfway between two keyframes, the value from the previous box position will be altered, while the second is not changed. The video does not appear to move in step with the first keyframe. This is because halfway between two keyframes, the projector translation is interpolated. In order to set the second keyframe you will need to move after the second keyframe.
Image translation, motion direction, and speed determine the results. Motion varies based on the interpolation type that is set, for example, if set to Linear, the result will be uniform straight line motion. Smooth is the default so that interpolation will generate curved lines with control points. Ctrl-drag the endpoint of the control handle to adjust the curved slope.

-When using the X11 graphics driver and RGBA-FLOAT color model, this plugin allows for greater than (0 - 1.0f) values. This does not work when using X11-OpenGL because it is an 8-bit limited driver. Both the Color wheels and the Saturation and Value sliders will make it possible to work with HDR video.

\subsection{Color Balance}%
\label{sub:color_balance}
At the same time as changing the \textit{Height} parameter we also need to set \texttt{Display Aspect rati}o to 2.35. In fact, the parameters in Canvas Size are not related to those in Display Aspect ratio, unless we keep the \texttt{Auto} option checked, and we need to set both before we click on the \texttt{Apply} button. To set the aspect ratio to 2.35:1 we can choose from the drop-down menu the value 2.35 or set the value directly in the two input fields. Or again, it can be done automatically via the Auto option. Finally we can click on the Apply button to complete the calculations. Now we have arrived at the desired result: typical Super 35 mm dimensions and aspect ratio, although starting from a 16:9 FullHD. The new canvas, however, lost the pixels of a part of the initial video (crop), to be precise $1080 - 816 = 264$ lines of pixels from top and bottom.
-\CGG{} allows you to vary the input and output aspect ratio in the ways indicated in the previous section: by varying the pixels of the sides (Width/Height) or by setting a multiplication coefficient (W/H Ratio; in this example: placing $H Ratio = 816 : 1080 = 0.7556$) which performs the calculation automatically. If you set \textit{W Ratio} and \textit{H Ratio} at the same time with the same values, they work as multipliers and you get a resizing of the canvas, without altering the initial aspect ratio. If you change them to two different values or change only one of the two parameters, leaving the other at 1, you get an anamorphic video, with the pixels no longer being square (1:1) but becoming rectangular, deforming the image. To avoid anamorphosis, the \texttt{Display Aspect ratio} must also be adjusted at the same time, for example, with the Auto option. \textit{Anamorphic} format is a complex field that is discussed in the Raffaella Traniello's guide: {\small \url{http://www.g-raffa.eu/Cinelerra/HOWTO/anamorphic.html}}.
