Stablize video with out of frame anchors?

I have some clips I want to stablize. However, no high-contrast object stays in frame throughout the clip.
What do you do in this case? Do you break the clip into two and stablize each one individually, then match them up manually?
Or is it possible to define multiple anchor points so that when one goes out of frame, another one can be use to continue the analysis?

If the shots line up spacially, you might be able to stitch them together in a pseudo-panorama and then track that. Of course also look into the techniques explained in the video. Beyond that such shots may require some heavier weapons and involve using 3D tracking/ matchmoving software like PFTrack that also can use their sophisticated algorithms to do these "simple" 2D tasks, but whether you really wanna spend 3500 GBP is another question...

  • Video cuts out of frame when importing to timeline :( What to do?

    Hi there!
    So I have my initial video on my timeline and all is well.
    However when I try to import another video with the same frame, it looks like it zooms in because it cuts so much of the frame that I can't even see my face anymore . I even tried viewing it in the preview window on the upper left side (which looks fine) until I drag it in the timeline.
    Photo 1 : This is the initial video
    Photo 2: This is the additional clip that I'm adding that cuts out of frame
    Something I should specify as well is, I recorded audio & video separately and merged them through he merge option that Premiere Pro has but that shouldn't be a problem since I did the same thing with my initial video to sync the audio and it did not cut out of frame.
    I am still new at premiere pro and when I look up tutorials, no one seems to have that problem. Any help?
    Thanks

  • Video with out Audio...?

    hey mine one is 30 GB black video i-pod,
    1, when i imported and converted mpeg3 or avi files to i-pod compatible its takin very longtime to convert... what to do with this...
    2, Even after converted and updated, Video is playing properly but with out audio... what could be the problem

    Does the video play with sound in iTunes? If not then the video is broken. iTunes does not convert videos when you drag 'n drop, but it is possible. This is often (always) not successful and would be easier if you bought QuickTime Pro, although slow it is the. best programme for making iPod compatible video. The other option that I heard is good is Videora, search at versiontracker.com for this. I don't know off hand (I use a mac) but I hear it is good.

  • IMovie imports video with only still frame

    I have converted video files from MTS to MOV and they play fine in quicktime.  But when I import them to iMovie, the video appears as one static frame the whole time while the audio plays fine.  I have tried to convert the files again and import those, but I'm having the same issue.  The format of the files is: H.264, 1920x1080, Millions AAC, 2 channels, 44100 Hz, 23.98.  Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

    You might try sending it from QuickTime to iMovie by using File -> Export To -> iMovie...

  • How to edit video to audio with a sub-frame precision?

    As all of my other posts I must begin by stating that this is not an RTFM issue. I have read the manuals and searched the web and this forum already.
    Also I beg you to read this question first before answering some nonsense. Ok, off the soapbox now.
    I am having issue synching video to audio.
    I am editing a music video at the moment at 23.976 fps. There is a master sound track (48/16) to which all of the video must be synched.
    I have not found a way of changing the position of a video clips in the timeline relative of the master audio track with a higher than a frame precision in order to obtain a perfect lip-sync.
    I am aware of the fact that one should enable "display audio units" in the timeline in order to shift an audio track relative the video with the sub frame precision, which is very useful when doing dialogue replacement to a video. For the video I am still not able to do so. Is it at all possible? Is there a workaround?
    How do they achieve a perfect lipsync when they make professional music videos?
    Thank you!

    Actually, you can set markers on the audio clip between frames.  I rember this from Jacob Robenbergs book Premiere Pro 2.0 Studio Techniques.
    You double click on the audio clip.  It opens in the Source monitor.  Then click on the fly-out menu and select SHOW AUDIO UNITS.
    Now in the source monitor you can place a marker (to be used for syncing) anyhere within the frame.  Set a numbered marker.
    Now you have a sync marker intraframe on the Audio.  You then sync this audio marker the Frame you need. Select both clips and choose syncronize.
    So it is not sub video frame, it is sub Audio frame to the correct video frame start.
    See below.  The audio sync marker is in the middle of the frame.  Hope this helps.

  • Adding video to a picture frame ( jpg image ) masking question

    Hi guys,
    I have an image of a picture frame, and I want to add some video inside the picture frame, but don't want the video to be seen outside the picture frame.
    How would I go about getting the video into the frame ?
    I have tried adding the "simple 3D " preset to my footage, and have put the video footage ON TOP of the picture frame later ( a simple jpg )
    Is there a correct proceedure to doing this ? or am I on the right track here ?
    I also notice one thing, - when I applied the Simple-3D preset, I can do a simple perspective on it.
    I applied a 22 degree "swivel" on the video footage, which correctly aligns the TOP of the video with the picture frame, however, the bottom of the video is out of whack slightly.
    On the bottom left, the video is perfect ( in the lower left corner of the picture frame ) however, on the right side ( bottom right ) the video is angled too much upward, and so there is a space there, and doesn't look correct.
    What do you suggest ?
    In photoshop, I would simply cut out the real photo from the picture frame, and put another image UNDER the frame and apply a simple masking to it, and this way it would be perfect, however I don't think this is how we can do it in Premiere ( ? ) I'm fairly certain about this, but could be wrong.
    If I am correct, then somehow I need to skew the video slightly ?
    Thanks for any suggestions,
    Dave.

    Hi Jim,
    I had the video under the picture frame, but parts of the video are still visible, ( in Photoshop I would simply mask out the area outside the frame, and that's it, it's done, but it seems in Premiere there is no such thing as this type of masking (perhaps ? )
    Hi Steven,
    I don't understand what you wrote, if I crop either the picture frame or the video, it won't look right. However, if I tweek the video just a tad, it would fit pefectly, however, when I do this to the video, just a portion of it sticks out from the picture frame in one area ( in Photos hop a simple mask would hide this )

  • Can you link Audio to any video in time line so it functions as if you imported a video with audio?

    Hi there...
    I have video and I also have externally recorded audio to sync with it. Now I understand that you can drag the video in (delete its audio if it has any) and then drag a audio clip into the timeline and place it under neath it. I can get it synced and all that fine.
    The problem I have is that it is cumbersome to edit like this. When you import a video with embedded audio if you make a cut it cuts the video AND the audio attached to it in one go. If you do it the way I am doing now you need to add extra cuts on the audio file as well. So you effectively doubling the clicks needed to edit. Also when you are deleting clips and sliding stuff about you need to be extra careful to make sure that the audio and video stays in sync.
    What I am hoping for is a way to "attach" the audio to the video with out adding a long and time consuming process of rendering out a video file with it embedded.
    Solutions I have tried and failed.
    GROUP : This seams like the obvious thing to do.. If I group them I can select them as one, move them as one.. but if I select the cut tool it still only cuts either the video or audio.. not both.
    SEQUENCE : The other option I tried is once it is synced I make a new sequence and add the sequence with the synced audo and video to it and then edit on that. I am not editing a sequence not the raw audio and video. The problem here is that while now the cut tool cuts both the video AND audio at once and I can also move and edit easily.. the problem is that now the wave form dose not show up in the audio track when you expand it. It is just a big blank green box (even though there is audio in the original sequence)
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

    I'm still using Cs6.... I found that if you hold shift+click with the cut tool it cuts it.. I'll try link as shifting is a pain...
    Maybe there is a way to set teh shift+click as the default action for the cut tool?

  • Importing Video with audio- Converting MPEG comes out pixelated

    I've got two problems.
    I know I need to convert my MPEG movie to another format, and I cannot remember which, in order for FCE to capture the audio that comes with it. Right?
    Do you know which format and specifications I need?
    Also-
    I've been using an MPEG Streamclip program to convert, but whatever I try (I havent gotten to importing it to FCE, so I dont even know if the audio will come in there or not) the video comes out extremely pixelated. I know it can be remedied, because the original is in much better quality. Ive tried MPG4 an Quicktime movies, but nothing is working. Is it the frame rate? Anything else? I am drawing a blank.
    ANY help is GREATLY appreciated.
    Thanks!

    From Streamclip export to QuickTime. Set the codec to DV NTSC and the frame rate to 29.97.

  • Why is my video exporting out of sync with the audio?

    Every time I export it (and it takes some 2 hours just to export a draft version) the video is sped up, but the audio isn't, so that the video is out of sync and at the end there's just black space with the end of the audio.
    Both the video footage and the composition have the same frame rate (24p). I am exporting with Render Settings set to DV settings and output module set to Quicktime DV NTSC 48kHz
    When I edit it I've been timing it to the seconds and frames because it's such a large file that I can barely RAM preview 5 seconds of it, and so it's especially frustrating that it's completely off when it exports.
    Has this ever happened to anyone here?

    Ahhh, right.
    I'm using After Effects CS5.
    The footage I'm using is in .mov format, although to be honest I'm not sure about the codec  (I imported it straight to After Effects from my Canon 7D's memory card? I think it's H.264)
    I also have some PNG sequences.
    I used the AE Render Queue.

  • I have a an iMac 27" and am trying to import some videos of a friends wedding into iMovie however one of the movies won't import. It doesn't say why or give any error message or codes. All of the other movies on the card download with out a problem.

    I have an iMac 27" and am trying to import some videos of a friends wedding into iMovie however one of the movies won't import. It doesn't say why or give any error message or codes.
    All of the other movies on the card download with out a problem. The movie in question is not 'corrupt' as you can watch it in iMovie direct from the SD card but as soon as you try to import it, it  just says 'error'. iIve tried moving the file to an external drive ( and other variations on this theme) then importing but have had no luck.
    Can anyone please help me.

    The mystery remains....
    Thanks for the pointers. The file type is .mts (a proprietry sony one).
    I have now found some video converter software (Wondershare and iSkysoft) at a cost. Either will convert this file for me into .mp4. This I can then import into iMovie without any problems. I've checked this on the trial versions and it worked well but without paying am left with a giant watermark in the video
    The mystery (which I still havent solved) is why did 20 other .mts files import fine and then this one not?
    If you could point me in the direction of some free .mts converter software that would be the cherry on the cake.
    Thanks

  • Making a video with single frames

    Hi,
    I'd like to make a video with single frames.
    One of my computergames is able to take 25 frames per second (or 30, 40 etc.). The game saves the frames in a folder. For one minute there are over 1000 frames.
    Now I need to know, how I can tell After Effects that every 25 frames are one seconds.
    I just want to make a movie of this game. This will be the easiest way if After Effects can handle with these single frames.
    Is it possible? I will be very happy if some can explain me the way to realise my idea.
    Sincerely,

  • I need to stream video from itunes to apple tv with out using my 40gb hd.

    i need to stream video from itunes to apple tv with out using my 40gb apple tv can it be done you see i have a 40gb apple tv and it's full and i still have lots more video (movies) in my itunes can i stream movies from itunes to apple tv with my memory full in apple tv??????????

    Select the iTunes library on your computer from the Sources menu in Apple TV and then you can stream. If streaming is not smooth and your router has a multicast setting, try increasing the multicast bit rate. To return to the synced content on your Apple TV, select the Apple TV logo at the top of the Sources menu.

  • Better to load videos with AS or place videos on frames?

    I don't have the AS3 knowledge required to quickly create a custom menu  system to play several videos in an FLVPlayback component or a Netstream  object, so I'm relegated to using some of the canned ones, or a 'menu  maker'. Trouble is, most,or all of these are set up to use an XML file  to set the actions for each menu item, and they are usually limited to  gotoandStop, or gotoandPlay. So, I'm looking at using these menus, and  simply having an instance of my video player at different frames, each  loaded with it's own video, and using the menu to jump to each frame.
    What I'm wondering is, what are the ramifications of doing it this  way, rather than having one player, and using the menu buttons to  dynamically load the FLV's OR MP4's? I've worked hard to try to be able  to limit my movies to a single frame and use AS to run everything. This  seems like a giant step backward.

    It would be wasteful to place video players in every frame for different videos.  You make it sound like creating a menu (buttons?) is your problem, so all you really need to know is how to have a button tell an FLVPlayer component to change its source and play a new video instead of using gotoAndPlay/Stop commands.  If you look up the FLVPlayback component in the AS3 help documentation, all of its properties, methods, and events are listed and explained, and there are likely examples of how to use the code.

  • Video plays out of sync with Flash version 11.6.602.180 in Firefox

    I've been receiving multiple reports that some videos plays out of sync with Vimeo's Flash player in Firefox, but not in other browsers (with the same version of Flash installed). Disabling/enabling hardware accelerated decoding does not seem to make a difference. Any ideas as to what might be causing this issue?

    This could be multiple issues, but the first thing that comes to mind is the protected mode feature in Flash Player for Firefox.  We've made significant improvements in our 11.7 beta and I'd recommend giving this a try:
    3/19/2013 - Flash Player 11.7.700.146 Beta
    If that doesn't help, or you can't update to the beta version, try the steps outlined in this post:
    How do I troubleshoot Flash Player's protected mode for Firefox?
    In particular, I'd recommend temporarily disabling protected mode (for troubleshooting purposes only) to see if that addresses the issue.
    Thanks,
