Warp Stabilizer causes black frame at the end of a clip.

Since upgrading to the 2020 Version of PP I'm regularly getting black frames at the ends of clips which didn't happen before.

Happens on multiple machines, on my windows and mac systems. So far mostly happens to canon 700d footage.

I can cut off the last frame and everything works again, but thats just very time consuming to get back to every clip after it is stabilized to check for the ending and if left in the render will fail. 

Correct answer Trenzit

I think I'll just follow this topic up, since it has been solved for me without doing anything. Contrary to many solutions mentioned here, it has nothing to do with the camera, codec or any other file format.
For me this Problem only ocurred in Project files that where converted from one Premiere version to the newer version. All clips in those timelines seemingly where bugged, so that the warp stabilizer red them differently. Resizing each individual clip fixed this for me.

Every timeline created in any later version did not have this problem and even converting to even newer versions did not cause this problem for me anymore.

I'm sorry, but it's really hard for me to recreate that problem. The main file I'm having this issue with is a 4gb file of a customer interview, wich for legal reasons I can't share and I've tried other files where I thought I had the problem, but in my testing they worked.
Whenever I put the same file in the same timeline and take a short bit out of it, it works. But the Clips I've put in the timeline earlier and cut them down to the important parts somehow seem ruined. I don't know how they got cursed, but even when there is no other effect on them and no matter how short the clip is, the stabilizer does not work at the last frame.

It's just very annoying for me, because I'm editing a couple of long interviews and whenever I'm ready to cut between the cameras, the footage seems to be ruined. At that point it's just an absolute pain to check for the faulty clips, because it's a single frame between thousands and the render error does not really help in finding that frame.

No, that didn't help. Plus I now have to re-enter in my preferences.

If it did work you still had to restore your preferences.......

Upload a short clip for testing.

1920 x 1080p, 29,97 frames - in a matching timeline

Shot on Canon 700D

File Format & Compression: MP4/MOV H.264 4:2:0

The stabilizer Settings seem not to make a difference, only when set to systhesize borders I get an image but thats not an option for my workflow.

Thanks for your help.
