# \&blur

General Option! ([`&push`](/advanced-settings/setup-parameters/push.md), [`&room`](/advanced-settings/setup-parameters/room.md), [`&view`](/advanced-settings/mixer-scene-parameters/view.md), [`&scene`](/advanced-settings/mixer-scene-parameters/scene.md))

## Options

Example: `&blur=25`

| Value            | Description             |
| ---------------- | ----------------------- |
| (no value given) | blurring intensity = 10 |
| (integer)        | blurring intensity      |
| `25`             | blurring intensity = 25 |

## Details

`&blur` which will try to add a blurred background to the video so it fits the structured video container. Using `&blur` auto enables [`&structure`](/advanced-settings/design-parameters/and-structure.md).

Code in the auto mixer, so you won't see the effect in a simple preview or some self-preview types.

`&blur` doesn't work with [`&color`](/advanced-settings/design-parameters/and-color.md), etc.

You can change the blurring intensity with `&blur=25` or whatever; `10` is default

`&blur=0` works as well.

May be buggy if using it with [`&forcedlandscape`](/advanced-settings/mobile-parameters/and-forcelandscape.md) or [`&rotate`](/advanced-settings/design-parameters/and-rotate.md)
