Here’s your frame by frame demo of the problem:

position effect glitch frame by frame demo

I used the stop watch to delete all the key frames for position and scale on the three clips and recreated them. Same issue.

I don’t see Sequence > Render entire work area. You can render between In and Out and effects In to Out, or selection, but not “Entire work area.” I did export the video and I see the same issue, the clips don’t stay put.

I created the sequence by dragging a video from my phone to it. That video and the sequence are now 30.04 FPS. However, the source clip that I am having issues with is 30 FPS exactly (it’s my screen cap, not from my phone). I did go and look at my other project where I thought I didn’t have this issue. My sequence there is also 30.04 FPS while the source clips are 30 FPS. I will say that the clips do seem to move a little bit after the key frame, but because I have them lined up on the lower right side of the frame and because they move to the right, there is no gap so the issue doesn’t seem the same, but I guess it is. Could the slight FPS mismatch be causing this?

The reason I did the count down and played the video was to show the jump, or glitch in position/scale values. You can’t see that at all in frame by frame, only when I click play while it’s sitting on top of the key frame. I do *not* see the jump/glitch in values on the other project though, which I guess is another reason I thought this worked fine there but not here.
