Inputs (18)
| Name | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| images | IMAGE | Source video frames to slice. | |
| num_slices | INT | 201–2000 | Number of slices to divide the frame into |
| offset | INT | 1-120–120 | Frame offset step between slices. Negative reverses time. |
| angle | FLOAT | 0-180–180 | Slice angle in degrees. 0 = vertical, 90 = horizontal, 45 = diagonal. |
| spacing | COMBO | How slice widths are distributed across the frame: even (linear), eased toward one side, or random. | |
| direction | COMBO | Which slices carry the most time offset: building from one edge (forward/reverse), from the centre, or from both edges. | |
| loop_mode | COMBO | How out-of-range frame indices are handled: wrap around (loop), bounce back (ping_pong), or shorten the clip (trim). | |
| blend_width | INT | 00–400 | Soft blend width (px) across boundaries. 0 = hard edges. |
| seed | INT | 00–4294967295 | Seed for 'random' spacing and slice jitter |
| cascade_curveopt | COMBO | How the per-slice offset grows across slices. | |
| slice_jitteropt | INT | 00–60 | Random +/- frames added per slice (seeded). Adds glitchy irregularity. |
| animateopt | BOOLEAN | false | Animate slices/offset/angle from start -> end over the clip. |
| num_slices_endopt | INT | 601–2000 | Target slice count reached at the end of the animation. |
| offset_endopt | INT | 6-120–120 | Target per-slice frame offset at the end of the animation. |
| angle_endopt | FLOAT | 0-180–180 | Target slice angle (degrees) at the end of the animation. |
| temporal_curveopt | COMBO | Easing applied to the start -> end animation over time. | |
| frame_countopt | INT | 00–100000 | Frames over which the animation completes. 0 = use clip length. |
| maskopt | MASK | Optional mask. Slicing is applied only inside the white area; outside keeps the original frame. |
