Final *** Pro Speed Ramping stuttering playback issues

Hello!


I'm having some issues with stuttery playback in the timeline and after exporting the files. I filmed a real estate property at 59.94fps, HD 1920x1080 10bit in camera shot in Vlog. I've imported and added the Panasonic Lut, did some minor color adjustments and I'm editing on a 29.97fps timeline in FCP. I slow the footage down to "automatic speed" (50%) then add speed ramping. When I do add the speed ramp to any of the clips I get a slight stutter in the playback, during and after the speed ramp effect is applied. I'm exporting a Apple Pros HQ file.


I've attached a video clip as you can see very clearly in the motion in the bedroom.https://youtu.be/FpTVx_u5Xh0


Any help would be MOST appreciated! Thank you!

Hello,


I was not able to notice any Jitter in the exported video. So I am assuming that you are having the issue while playing back the timeline on app. There could be several reasons for that. Primarily, the hardware. Apple devices works really well with their own encoding.


  1. You can try putting your shot video files in compressor app, creating a custom export settings to keep most of your recorded video quality intact, and export the files. I believe those will be more suitable for FCP.
  2. Or in another scenario, if your playback is set for quality preview, you can change it to better performance and see if that solves your issue. Yes your videos on timeline might seem blurry, as it is a preview, but the final, export will be high quality.


Hope this will help!
