Its connected to an idistort that distorts the uv channels feeding it into it (in this case the forward channel inside the node). It has mainly two paramaters and/or knobs:
- UV offset: How much the distortion will act over the input we feed it into
- UV scale: How much it scales the UV channel (can be indicated to backward or forward)
It has two inputs one for your main footage and the other one for the input mask
