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

[Edit23]

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.

Same bug here!! My exports crash all the time because of one little black frame on a clip generated during the wrap stabilization analysis. The error indicates the time code so I go on the timeline and search for it, and it is always a black frame that seems to make the exports crash. I can have about 2 to 5 of this kind of error on a 30min show. Really anoying and time wasting. I'm on mac but it does the same when running Premiere on the Intel version.

Hello @Edit23 and @ESTLL,

Can the team have more information about your system and media so that they can reproduce the bug? See: How do I write a bug report?

I hope the team can find a fix for you soon.

Thanks,
Kevin

@Kevin-MonahanThanks for your answer. I updated my post in the comments right here with all the details : https://community.adobe.com/t5/premiere-pro-discussions/export-error-1609629695-wrap-stabilizer-effe...

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.

@JamesAOS 
Thanks for your answer,

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

Thanks again

[JamesAOS]

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.

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.

Premiere version : 25.0.0

OS : MacOS Sonoma 14.7

Sequence : 29.97 DF

Files : mostly .mov files but also .mp4

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?

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

@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

[JamesAOS]

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!
