Yes indeed, but now, just as everything is coming together, my software has completely crashed! This may lead me to a new post, but I am going to have to reinstall the application from scratch. I have backups of my work, so I feel I’ll be able to get back to where I was before the crash (FCPX crashes out after loading, even when I load with a different project, so it seems the app has become corrupted, ho hum…)

Well, I was skeptical Bill, but I gave stabilising a go, and…it works on my shaky panning! I really didn’t think it would be able to deal with that kind of variation in lateral movement – brilliant! Yes, I do lose a bit of the frame, but it’s worth it. Thanks again, John 🙂

Good evening gents, I am unable to post specific problems relating to my ‘transition’ issues at present.
I would rather wait until I can be sure it is not my system or my own errors that are causing the problems (too many strange things have been happening to accurately list them here at the moment). I trust that when and if I do post the details on here that your collective expertise will be made available to me as generously as it has been so far. Thanks, John 🙂

Thanks guys, unfortunately I don’t have After Effects, but I’ll bear it in mind. I’ll try the stabilising option in FCPX – thanks.

I am in the UK, so just back from work…I will open a new project and attempt to recreate the problem so that I can give you all the details. This may take me a couple of hours. Thanks 🙂

Thanks guys, I will get back here shortly with detailed explanation of what my problems are. My initial reaction is: strange, can it be my system? Am I doing something ‘wrong’…we shall see 🙂

And now I’m noticing it! Thanks Shane 🙂

Thanks Shane, I see there is an FCPX Techniques forum, which seems to deal with technical issues, rather than the FCPX forum which does not.
