Hello,

I have read in a magazine (CT) that shaky video captures will have a bad impact on the compression. The magazine states when you put your camera on a tripod, you will get better (mpeg) compressing results then when you shoot a film from the hand. Besides it looks better in general as well when the image doesn’t shake. Some cameras have a stabilization feature them self but not always, or they do not stabilize enough, or you find out later that you should have it switched on for a special scene.
I wonder if there exists a stabilization filter that basically crops the image by a few pixels and try to center the image with the previous and follow frames.

(Unfortunately, I have no knowledge to write such a filter myself)

Go back to the list for this section (Filters), and look 8 topics down in this same category ... "Digital Stabilizer" topic.

Also, http://virtualdub.everwicked.com/index.php?act=ST&f=7&t=278&s=2bde313d5603332dfd28d78183f14866 is a topic with similar info. (oops, sorry, that's the same topic ... but i'll leave the link here for posterity smile.gif ).

Please be sure to search b4 asking, that's a forum rule ... when you do, please make sure to change the default "last 30 days" to widen the range (Moderators: anyway to change this default?).

Best,
