Morph Cut makes video jitter

Adobe, why is this even possible?! In 2022! In Premiere Pro 22/1/2. With a Premiere Pro own effect!!!

I have no words, frankly! I used to have problems with Morph Cut back in 2019. Now it's 2022 and Adobe cannot make its own transition work... just work!

Here's what I get:

Yes, I tried software over CUDA, I updated the drivers, I cleaned the cache and reset Premiere Pro settings to default. And why I even have to do all those things to make Premiere's own transition work, this I cannot understand, not even why it did not help...

So right now I'm on a project and my client is waiting for the edited video and I cannot finish it because of such poor software. And if I shall lose the client and therefore the money, will Adobe pay me instead?

Whatever tutorial I watched for Morph Cut way back when (don't remember who it was) said that it was designed for talking heads only (like shoulders up, facing straight ahead), and good results shouldn't be expected with other visu anyway. Is this true?

Yes, for best results, Morph Cut should be applied to a locked down medium close up of an individual talking who maintains a consistent line of sight.

Are you on Pr2022 22.3 yet?

 

Or still on 22.2?

 

They're rolling out this update over several days for some reason. 22.3 might have a fix for you, if you're in 22.2.

Hi Андрей5E17,

Super sorry about that weird transition. Others have a similar issue, and a bug is being worked on now. I will add your commentary to the bug so that it may help in fixing it. Morph cut is not a standard transition and is the only one I know using Adobe Sensei. I can recommend troubleshooting to see if other kinds of footage might prevent the occurrence, especially if your source footage is HEVC or H.264. Transcoding the footage might help. If you are shooting H.264, could you try it as a test?

 

Thanks,
Kevin

I Have this issue too ... Morph used to work fine in previous versions, but is now completely unusable. I rolled back the version of Premiere to 22.1.2 but it didn't help ... happy to roll furthjer back if you can indicate which version to try. I depend on thsrs cuts and am quite good at them!
