    Hello All

    I have a project that is Canon 5D Mark III footage converted to 23.98 ProRes. When editing or grading I see a heavy Judder in pans when monitoring out of Black Magic DeckLink Extereme to a calibrated monitor. This is in FCP and Resolve. I understand that there are limitations to a DSLR / panning issues with a 23.98 frame rate and this is not a rolling shutter issue. I have all my sequences set to ProRes 23.98 and the DeckLink is behaving properly. I triple checked footage to see if it was captured and converted properly. I’m just not sure about the monitoring issue. When I monitor I see a substantial judder in fast pan movements but when I compress to a VIMEO compression and view on my laptop the judder decreases substantially.

    I need some advice on whats happening technically.

    Thanks Everyone !

    What monitor are you using? Can you feed it a P instead of PsF signal?

    Thanks Juan

    Im on a JVC DT-V24L coming in SDI. Is this a normal issue when monitoring? I think I could feed it a P. Not sure how I would set that up but it shouldn’t be an issue.

    just test it out. in config page see that your resolution number for timeline has P with it as progressive.

    dslr material should be handled as progressive as it was shot.

    look if it helps.

    Hey Margus

    I’m looking at the Config Tab and I see:

    Timeline Format

    1920 x 1080
    Pixel: Square
    PlayBack Frame Rate: 24 — should I change to 23.976?

    Image Processing: 32 bit

    My Deck Capture / PlayBack is HD 1080psf 23.98

    Thanks

    Have you tested 2:3 pull also ?

    I do not work myself in 23 fp but just trying to think with you on that.

    It seems to me like config problem.

    You guys think this is a technical problem ?
    I think its a footage “feature”
    Rolling shutter means almost no motion blur.
    Can we see two chronological frames of the footage ?
    My money is on that…And ReelSmart Mblur can help a lot in those cases.

    Check out this explanation of the difference between PsF and Progressive:

    At the least, it should help you understand what you’re looking at…..even if it doesn’t tell you how to “fix” it 🙂

    Hey Sascha

    Yea … It’s a footage issue. check these 2 sequential shots from a pan down.

    That actually looks reeeally weird.
    Like someone shot in 50i and converted to 25p.
    The second image looks like two fields merged together.
    Also you are looking at horizontal contrast stripes…worst case scenario 🙂
    But first I would see if you can interpret that footage differently.
    is this the source, or some FCP output (which i dont trust more than JPMorgan)
