Warp Stabilizer flicker, software renderer does nothing

I started this project on CC 2014, then migrated it up to CC 2014.1. I have tried exporting a couple sequences from it multiple times, with different output codecs (uncompressed, Cineform, H.264), and all of the results are the same: flickering video and noisy audio.
I have isolated the flicker to the Warp Stabilizer-effected shots, but no sequence setting changes or conversion to Software renderer over CUDA renderer makes any difference in the output. The audio also outputs as digital noise (sounds like when you listen to a data CD in an old CD player).
It is not an option to go through and re-add all of the Warp Stabilizer effects to see what different that makes, there are too many of them on the various clips in the project.
This affects both Premiere AND Media Encoder, so it's looking very difficult to get a quality render out of this.
Please help!

CC 2014.1

Hey Kevin here is my info. Let me know if I can further assist.
PP 8.1.0 (81) Build
Windows 8.1 with all the latest updates
Source footage is Canon 5D MkIII 1080p30 all-I & Gopro Hero 3+ Black 1080p60 protune
I do get an "unspecified drawing error" sometimes when applying Warp Stabilizer but not all the time
WS worked fine until I updated from CC to 2014
I'm not running any other software besides the rest of the Adobe suite. I sometimes have Chrome open while editing.
I use Red Giant Magic Bullet looks quite a lot. I also use Neat Video noise reduction, Boris Continuum, and Twixtor.
System Specs:
Core i7-4770K, Gigabyte Z87X-UD4H-CF, 32GB RAM (Crucial BLS8G3D1509DS1S100 DDR3-1600), MSI GTX 970 Gaming, Samsung 256GB 840 Pro SSD (system), WD 3TB 7200 (Media), Seagate 2TB 5900 (Exports/Cache/Previews). The current project I am editing off of a 2TB WD Passport drive via USB3.
I'm using MPE GPU acceleration. When I use software only I actually get a lot more render errors and the flicker worsens.
Previews look perfect only on final output do I see the problem. I have tried rendering with the "use previews" box checked thinking that would help but it makes no difference.
Hope we can get this solved!
Edit:
I also get an "unknown exception on frame 0 in Warp Stabilizer" error sometimes when applying WS.

Warp Stabilizer Analyze Data - where does it really save?

Hello,
I had cut 4 episode documentary series on a macPro with CS6. I had used the Sub Space Warp stabilizer feature on many of the clips. All clips had been stabilized and I saved the project on our server with the projects files, preview files and Auto save files.
I then got a computer upgrade to a new macPro with more RAM - graphic - and processing power. Yay! I have CS6 and CC installed on this.
I received the final design elements to insert into the series ( the L3 and titles and credits ) and went to go and export the project off the server from this new computer.
It seems that all of the clips that I have used the Sub Space Warp Stabilizer need to be re-analyzed again, as the exports had the orange banner across the clips stating that it is being analyzed.
My question is, does Premier have to reanalyze the clips again because I have a new computer and the Sub Space warp data doesn't save with the project files but instead locally on the machine that edited the project?
If so, can I get all the project data and cache to save with the project files?
When I started this project, as with any project, I direct all the save elements and caches to a specific drive location, so various computers can work with the edit, and for efficiency. I don't think that the Sub Space Warp analyze data gets off the local computer drive... Am I wrong?
Any comments are appreciated.
Thank for your help.

I see that now as well. Yes thank you for your reply there Snarky.
I wonder why my exports had the orange analyze banner across the clips with the Warp Stabilizer on it.
You figure with that data stored in the project file, it would just load up with the project,
and when the software says "All media Loaded" - that I wouldn't have to go back to each clip and get it to re-analyze for stabilization.
So time consuming.
I hope that is is an isolated incident.
This doesn't not seem to be the case, as I am not alone.
pass warp stabilizer between computers?

Warp Stabilizer 4K to HD - does PPcs6 interpolate first then downsize when using "stabilize, crop, autoscale?

I am using CS6. I have warp stabilized my 4K footage and want to output to HD at the best quality I can. I have two choices: I can either have warp stabilizer "stabilize, crop auto scale" then I simply render to HD or I can set "stabilize, crop" and then get rid of the black border (crop) using AME in export settings. So my question is: If I use option 1 does PP interpolate the footage and then "downsize" to HD thus reducing quality? Or Does PP make all the calculations "in one go" so the footage isn't actually interpolated then reduced? I hope I have explained this clearly - though I fear not :-) Thank you for any comments. Paul

I've been experimenting exactly the same. My conclusion is that stabilize, crop, auto scale does indeed crop the video first, then rescale back to the original frame resolution. So there is some loss of quality. I've been working on 4K video and warp stabilizing first (no crop, no auto scale), then cropping as a nested sequence to HD (with key-framing to follow the action). Depending on the amount of crop, what the video content is, and because you're starting with 4K footage to begin with, it's debatable as to whether the final HD rendered output is visually any different whatever method you choose. I guess you'll only find out by trial and error.

Software Update "does nothing"

I have problems with Software Update. When i click on it, the app starts looking for updates, the blu bar grows just a little and then it stops, the app doesn't hung but it does nothing, it seems that doesn't found the apple server, i don't know...
i have downloaded the 10.5.6 path "manually" and after installing it, SoftUpdt continues without working...
All the connections are allright, tpc/ip is working, in fact i have tied to create another admin account and when i execute the software update app it works properly, but when i come back to my user it doesn't work..
don't know what is happening.
Any ideas, anyone with similar problem ??
thanks a lot

You may also try to do an archive and install if the preference trashing does NOT correct the issue. You can manually do updates through the web, but it is easier to do through software update. I saw a similiar issue and the archive&install fixed it in 45min. What Mac are you using? What operating system do you have? Is this computer still under warranty?

Error with warp stabilizer

I've graded a couple of clips from DaVinci Resolve and exported as ProRes 4444 from sony F55 RAW.
Now I'm importing them in my Premiere Pro CC timeline, edit them and apply warp stabilizer.
The effects analyzes correctly the video, but when I try to export them (via Premiere, Media Encoder or After Effects) I get a generic error.
I tried to export the clips as ProRes 422 files but get the same error. Without the warp stabilizer the timeline renders without issues.
Does someone know how to solve this issue?
Thanks

What firewall/antivirus software are you using?
After Effects communicates with the background camera tracker process using TCP, and some overly aggressive firewall/antivirus software can block this communication. That may be the problem in your case.

OpenCL warp stabilizer renders in a small box in the top left corner

Hi everyone,
I have just built a new computer with the following specs:
Premiere 8.1.0 (81) build
i7 4790s haswell-refresh,
16gb Corsair RAM (4x4 DDR3 1600),
Gigabyte Z97MX Gaming 5
2x A-Data SP920 128gb SSD
Sapphire Radeon HD 7750
Windows 8.1 Pro CZ
Now I know this is a very weak configuration compared to other builds here, but I had hoped it would work fine for my amateur Full-HD workflow of clips mostly under 30mins.
The problem is; when I enable OpenCL acceleration, then all clips with warp stabilizer become about 1/4 of the preview window; it carries over to the final render. I have tried this both with the AMD card and without it (having OpenCL enabled with the Intel HD4600). No avail.
Now the funny part is that I used to have this same card running in my previous system; running on an obsolete Gigabyte UD3 with Core i5 750 in it and... IT WORKED! It was with the same Premiere version, running on the same OS. I've ditched that computer just a few days ago, but my new computer has this inexplainable problem.
The build is not the issue, as I had the computer tested and everything is stable with decent temperatures.
I am also having quite a lot of crashes while editing, but I think that's due to the infamous RedGiant suite which as I read on the forums is likely to blame. It's ok, i just need to save often. Would Neat Video be better? Does anybody know?
Another problem is the sluggishnes and lags when my clip reaches beyond 30 mins; I don't think that's ok, my videos produced with EOS M should not be anything demanding for this setup; when I monitor the ram usage, it never gets above 8gb (and yes, I have allowed CC to use up to 13gb of the total ram); also other resources are almost idle during editing.
The sluggishnes and lag is however even worse in SpeedGrade; over there when I move any slider, I need to wait for seconds! It somehow improves over time, but again, I just have an opinion now that this software suite is very very badly made. I am happy I am not using this to make money...
Please correct me if I'm wrong and any links that could help me resolve the problems are super-welcome.
regards,
Jan

Thanks for the report. We believe we have identified the issue and are working on a fix. For now the workaround is rendering in Software mode.

Adobe Premiere CC 2014.2: losing rendered files when using warp stabilizer

Hi,
I am constantly losing rendered files when using the warp stabilizer. So far I have tried about every hint I could find on the web such as cleaning the cache, rebuilding the rendered files, creating additional sequences etc etc.
Honestly I am getting tired of using a product that isnt cheap in the first place to rent and where a bug like this apparently persists over several product versions without being fully fixed (I have had this problem throughout 2014 but according to forum postings others seem to have problems with much earlier versions as well).
I would be really grateful if somebofy has any suggestion how this can be addressed.
I am also happy to help testing fixes - if there are any fixes available.
Thanks a lot and Happy New Year!

Hi Catherine,
Welcome to the Adobe forums.
Please try the steps mentioned below and check if it works for you.
1. Launch Premiere Pro and create a Project, go to File menu>Project Settings>Renderer and change the Renderer to Software only mode, delete previews if you get a prompt and then try to import the clip.
2. If step 1 fails or the Renderer is already on Software only mode, go to Start Menu and search for Device Manager, go into Display Adapters and Right click on the Graphics card to select Update driver software option, on the next screen choose "Browse my computer for driver software", then choose "Let me Pick from a list..." option and from the list select "Standard VGA Graphics adapters. You might need to change the screen resolution of your screen and once done restart the machine again.
Launch Premiere Pro and import the clip to check.
Regards,
Vinay

Warp Stabilizer in CS6 does not work at all

When using the CS6 Premiere Pro Warp stabilizer it starts to analyze but doesn't start to convert after it has finished analyzing.
- Add the Warp Stabilizer
- Blue bar over picture shows up "Analyzing in Background (Part1 of 2)
- Prozess finishes but nothing happens (Source does not get corrected, orange bar never shows up)
- Another blue bar shows "Click Analyze to begin"
When pressing Analyze the process starts over again without any result.
The used footage is some mxf from a Canon C300
The used PC gots 8 cores, 32GB Memory
Update:
When using a different Clip, or if i shorten the problematic clip, it seems to work now

I could not help laughing at Jim's remark. I remember showing my 20 minute video of our trip to Italy to my brothers way back in 2002. In fact, it was my first Premiere project. I had the sense to cut it way down from 20 one hour tapes to 20 minutes. My oldest brother may have thought he was being a little insulting with his remark, but I was overjoyed. He said "It looks like a PBS travelogue." That was, of course, exactly what I was going for with the video and the voiceover.
In any case, I was able to use Warp Stabilizer this weekend on some footage of a children's birthday party. I can't show the results because of the subject matter. Not that they were doing anything wrong other than savagely beating a poor Super Mario Brother's pinata, but I don't have a release for them all.
I was a bit surprised at how long it took. I have a state of the art PC, and apparently the GPU doesn't help. I liked the results, but I sure would like to know what resources the effect utilizes. This is a screenshot of what it looked like about two minutes into the 11 minute process (the effect window estimated 8 minutes) for stabilizing a 60 second video (1800 frames). I think maybe I will start another thread to inquire about this. The CPU wasn't even breathing hard, the hard drives I am using for cache are in RAID0 - so should be reasonably fast. Hmmm. I wonder?

Warp stabilizer does'not work

Adobe Premiere Pro 2014 v8.2 30day trial.
When put the "warp stabilizer" to file it doesn't work. Analyze go to 100% and dissapear but on preview screen word "Stabilizing" remain(like stuck). When i try to playback file the screen is black.
I try to reinstall Premiere Pro. Doesn't help. Then i reinstal windows and upgrade from 8 to 8.1, and it's the same problem. Maybe someone can help me.
The system is based on Core i5 + 12Gb ram + 120Gb SSD
Sorry for bad english

Hi... i have same problem.I tried it all and with new saquence but nothing.
It analyze video and everything is OK till the moment when it needs to start with stabilization, then CS6 freezes. Does anyone have any idea what is stopping Warp stabilizer from working correctly in CS6 when at the same time it's working perfectly OK in After Effects ?

Warp Stabilizer Does not start.

I used Dynamic link from Premiere 5.5 to AE 5.5 Production Premium Bundle. The 4 minute project seems to be OK in AE until I used Warp Stabalize. AE Either freezes or there's a blue bar with "Stalizing in the background step (1 of 2) The CPU is not running more than 3% and nothing is happening it doesn't crash the OS. I'm useing 720x480 NTSC 29.97 mp4 clips from videos created in PPCS4. I exported a 8 sec. of one clip to DV does the same thing, nothing when Warp stabilizer is used.
I had the warp stabilizer working in another project a few days ago on this system. It was a 5 second NTSC Quicktime 4:2:2 720P clip.
8GB RAM, Windows 7 Pro 64 bit, NVidia GTX 560, Aero Off
Also is there a way to apply warp stabilizer to a few seconds of 1 clip and not the entire project that has been dynamic linked to AE?

Also is there a way to apply warp stabilizer to a few seconds of 1 clip and not the entire project that has been dynamic linked to AE?
You replace the segment with an AE comp and send that AE comp. That's even in the introduction to Warp Stabilizer video on Adobe TV, so I suggest you watch the video again. The rest is unclear, but I get the impression that you create a circular relationship somewhere by having the original DV and converted clips in teh same project. Anyway, if you change your approach, this should also not occur anymore.

Trying to do a software update, but my macbook pro does nothing after it prompts me to restart

I am trying to do a software update on my Macbook Pro so I can update the new iTunes so I can start using my new iPod. Every time I go through the process of the computer searching for updates and confirming there are software updates, then being prompted to restart my computer, it does nothing. After my Macbook Pro turns on again, nothing pops up and I go into my information and it says I still have the old software. Nothing is prompting me to do the update after I restart my computer, or beforehand for that matter. HELP.

Are you really still running 10.6.2? If Software Update isn't working for you, you may want to try using the 10.6.8 combo update found here -->> http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399.
If that doesn't work, call back...

I software update and it asks me to restart. i do it and it does nothing but restart the computer

I software update and it asks me to restart. i do it and it does nothing but restart. no notifications or updates or anything. i have done this several times. please someone help me. T⌢T

i've done that, it asks to install the updates, and then says it needs to restart the computer, the computer restarts and non of my updates are installed. i re open software updates, and it asks me to install all over again. this is really frustrating.
