Wow. A very simple answer to a very long-winded quesiton. Thanks!
After I export to 1920×1080 H.264… do you have any advice in terms of compression settings in MPEG Streamclip?

Mark, Michael, Rafael,

I figured out the problem. I had a smoothcam filter on my video clip, so the jump from video to still image was extremely noticeable.
I ended up exporting the section with the smoothcam filter, then re-imported the clip as a quicktime file and made a still from that last frame.

Thank you all for taking the time. I’m sure I’ll use those tips in the future!

Hi Michael,

Thanks for your quick response. I tried to use a deinterlace filter and it’s still jumping!

Let me know if you have any other advice.

Thanks again

I’ll definitely give that a shot. Thanks a lot for taking the time.
Just a quick follow-up.. what screen capture app do you use?
I have iShowU HD.

Let me know what works best for you, and thanks again!

hey man thanks a lot!
That makes a lot of sense I’ll definitely give it a shot. I checked out your Leap Year Project vid.. really good idea and really well executed! Best of luck!

Hey Neil,

Thanks for taking the time to respond. It starts becoming noticeable after about a minute or so, but since the audio is 45 minutes long, by the end it’s wayyyy off.

I don’t know how he figured this out, but Mark Glenister responded to my question as well, and told me that if you slow down the audio track to 99.89% it all lines up. He was right! Again, I have no idea why this magic number works, but if you run into the same problem give it a shot.

All the best,

Ariel

Hey Mark,

THANK YOU SO MUCH! I have no idea why you would have to slow down the audio to 99.89%, or how you figured that out for that matter… but it worked!

Again, thanks so much,

Ariel
