    I enabled motion blur from the beginning. That’s really helpfull for the horizontal lines, since it is a vertical movement. But the problem I would discribe as ‘unstable playback’ remains: the animated movement of the still images is super smooth, but there are random irregularities in the play back. Almost as if there was too much informaton for the player to handle (but the file is not heavy at all, as I mentioned earlier). Sometimes the first try is awfull, second playback perfect, third playback horrible – you never know. Just impossible to use in an exhibition!

    (sorry, time difference…my answer is late) By testing with the video files (with video footage) we agreed on mp4 / 10 – 12 MBit Bitrate. Those play fine at the museum (which is the client). After the delivery of the animation files in question they noticed the jerky movement, that I can see as well on my computer when I play back the files. That’s why I have to find a solution first here on my Mac.
    I am wondering if the animation could cause a problem, because the movement of the jpegs contains a lot of changing image information (comparible with an ongoing panning)? In an average video sequence only parts of the image are moving…

    Thanks a lot Dave
    I’m on a Mac OS 10.12.1, 2.5 GHz Intel Core i7, Adobe AE CC 2017.
    Reason for 50 fps is me being European. I tried first 25 fps, but with 50 it looks already much better. What you say about large dimensions: why would video footage (vertical 4K, cut left and right) play well and an animation of the same size / same codec / same format / same bitrate not? The files are only between 15 and 35MB renderd as mp4.
