Still Image animation Jerky
I’m new to 5.0.4 after using 4.5 up to this point. Having problems with animating stills: The 1st frame of a dissolve into a second clip has a jerky up and down movement. This happens whether I dissolve into the clip on the same track, or when stacking tracks.
Have tried photos as jpg, psd, tiff, etc. Also, after removing 2nd clip to try something else, there is a jerky artifact left in the first clip from the 2nd one just removed.I’ve also noticed performance for stills in general is down – lots of aliasing when animating. As far as I know, I’ve checked all of the prefs & RT settings that would apply with no result.
Help!

Jeff,
This may sound a bit simplistic. Have you tried rendering your project. I’ve had similar jerky stills but after rendering looked fine.

Jeff,
You need to optimize your stills in Photoshop. Check this out:

Wish it were that easy. Yes, fully rendered. I’m beginning to think I may have a bug, and will need to re-install.
Sure hope not – it’s loaded up with Sapphire, Boris Red, etc, and don’t want to have to register with everyone.
Again, it is the first frame ONLY of a dissolve – a rapid up and down movement. When viewing in real time it looks like a little jump or hiccup. -
Chris, I saw that post in searching for solutions. Already on base with the sizing, can’t solve the jerky 1st frame of dissolve issue.

Jeff,
I think I know what’s wrong. If you are applying keyframes to your stills to move them, and then apply a transition, you will see that the keyframes are no longer at the edge or beyond of your stills. You have to manually drag the keyframes back.
One thing I’d suggest is that you get PanZoomPro from lyric.com. Buttery smooth moves and no keyframes for transitions to mess with.
Have a wonderful day.
