Hi Guys,

Below are two examples of the same clip in which im having issues.


For some context, I am using a 25fps 1080p timeline and the clip in question is 100fps 1080p slowed to 25%.

The original 100fps 1080p footage with frame sampling on - slowed to 25% : Original - YouTube

The exact above PLUS nested and then warp stabilizer added on top (50%) : Original + Nesting and Warp - YouTube

As you can see, the stabilizer goes crazy, Any ideas? what's going on here?

clip is too long:

If you cut it back to 6 sec.

Just Subwarp, smoothnes 100 and Stabilize Only.

Up the additional scale.

I think it would look a lot better.

Apply speed change to the clip, EXPORT as a new clip using decent intermediate codec (ProRes, DNxHD, GoPro Cineform) then import the NEW clip and apply Stabilizer to that. Or Stabilize original clip in 100fps timeline, export, then continue editing with new clip. Understand that any stabilizer plug-in must analyze several adjacent frames to determine how to make fixes, and when you are changing the speed that messes with the math and you get unpredictable results.

Thanks

Hi Jeff,

Thanks for your reply,

Problem being I shoot a lot of 100fps footage and exporting clips /  re-importing is a huge intermediate time waster.

I might experiment with a few things and see where it takes me.

Cheers!
