In some cases of movie splitting, the frames/images need to be"re-used" as a different channel. For example, if I wanted to process a frame and its successor at the same time, I could only do this with LoadData and a filelist in which the file/paths of one channel are offset by a row with respect to the other channel.
A new option in addition to"Interleaved" and"Separated" would be needed. We could call it"Overlapped" or"Staggered." Such a movie could be processed like this for a case where I want to process a frame and its successor:
Image cycle | Channel # | Frame #
1 | 1 | 1
1 | 2 | 2
2| 1 | 2
2 | 2 | 3
3 | 1 | 3
3 | 2 | 4
Pertinent questions for settings:
(1) How many frames is the offset?
(2) How to"fill" in the space created by the offset? With the 1st image? Or do we shorten the # of cycles by the offset amount?
