Hello Guys,

i made an animation with trains comp settings are 2304x640px by 25 frames per second. And when the Train start to roll out

i got an little jiggle, stutter in the motion! Specially in the end of the train. Is that a problem of the playback frame rate? What can i do to make that

smoother without adding motion blur. Whats the reason of that jiggle?

That's the same issue as the millions "How do I create smooth scrolling credits?" questions - your motion timing is simply not ideal, resulting in unfavorable temporal sampling in relation to the frame duration. In your case making it slightly faster might do wonders. Also do not forget about enabling motion blur and otehr such things that might improve appearance.

Normally that can be right, i read other answers, you answered in this forum! Buuut on my Samsung TV i test my footage also and there it looks very good and liquid. So can this be a problem between playback framerate and refreshrate of the device...?

Yes, of course it could be an issue with your monitor if it looks correct on a device that has a consistent frame rate. In this case things like turning off VSync and changing the desktop refresh rate in the graphics driver settings may help.
