Last frame of warp stabilizer clip is black, gives error when exporting

This is a fun new little problem.

I'm having to re-analyze every clip that already has warp stabilizer on it.

When I do, there's about a 50% chance that the last frame of the clip on the timeline will just be black. Also, If I try to export, it will error out.

I've taken WS off the clip and re-analyzed with the same result. If I slide the clip down a frame or 2 and re-anazlyze, same result.

The only thing that fixes it is if I just cut that last frame out after it's analyzed.

Been doing it for about a month now.

Did you ever find a work around to this issue?? Happens constantly for me.

It still happens sometimes so I cut the last frame that is black by draging the end of that clip toward the left and then re-export. It works that way most of the time.

@JamesAOS You mean this cursor thing ? So the duration of these timecodes should also be even numbers (as in 0,2,4,6,8) right?

Still makes black frame on some clips 😞

Thanks for your help

Not sure I understand exactly what your saying about the cursor… If you have two nested clips one after the other each with warp stabilizer and you want a transition between them but you are getting a black frame during the transition when you export it… double click the transition that “joins” the two clips (looks like an X) a duration box pops up. Type in an even number that’s smaller than your current odd duration - so if the transition’s duration is 15 frames, type in 14 hit enter and then re-analyze the warp stabilizer. These steps have eliminated this problem for me entirely, many times a day!

I don't have any transitions between my 2 clips, and they are not nested... Did you get this issue without nested clips with transitions?

Sorry I never got to the bottom of this before I switched to Resolve.
Hopefully tbis thread will help somebody else.
Thanks,

Once you determine that the transition duration is an even number, hold down command and use the cursor to drag the transition so it falls equally onto each clip. Click to re-analyze the clip before and after (you can even try now deleting warp effect and dragging it in again as that is another separate issue). Does this not solve it for you?

Update : sometimes it still crash / put a blackframe on the last frame, even if the cuts are on "even numbers" as the solution mentionned earlier.... Feeling really tired about getting this bug with the stabilization effects.

I don't know exactly but it appears that the application basically ignores the last frame of the first clip as it transitions into the next, only when the transition is an odd number however. I started double-clicking on every transition and entering even numbers to be sure as part of my pre-export checklist earlier this year.

@JamesAOS
Thanks for your answer,

It seems to work! Any idea why this is the solution?

Thanks again

Check the transition where this back frame is occuring. Is the duration of the transition an odd number? Change it to an even number. Re-analyse for stabilizer and tell me if the problem goes away.
