CRT effect

Applies a CRT effect, simulating an old cathode-ray tube television.

The effect combines several tweaks that you can enable or dial independently to build a retro look:

  • Curvature bends the image outward like a rounded glass screen.
  • Line width and Line contrast control the visible scanlines. Enable Show vertical lines to add vertical scanlines as well.
  • Noise and Noise size add static grain, while Noise frequency sets how many times per second it is refreshed (set it to 0 for a frozen, still grain).
  • Vignetting darkens the corners of the screen.
  • Interlaced lines speed animates the scanlines: 0 pauses them, 1 is normal speed, 2 doubles it.
