TimeBlur
Average the input over the shutter.
Average the input over the shutter. Oink evaluates whole frames only: each sample time is rounded to its frame, so a shutter inside one frame gives that frame (sub-frame motion is not blurred).

Retime
Maps the input range onto an output range at a speed (both output ends locked: the speed that fits), with reverse, before / after (continue, loop, bounce, hold, black), a box filter whose width is spe
TimeOffset
Moves a clip in time by time offset frames (positive = later; Mode sets whole or fractional frames); reverse input plays the input's frame range backwards.
