Stabilize Video
Estimate frame-to-frame motion, smooth the measured path, and apply a small crop to supported video. Review residual motion and exposed edges because results vary with the footage.
Motion-estimated
Processed frame pairs are analyzed to estimate a camera path; tracking confidence and residual motion vary with scene detail and movement.
Smoothed camera path
A Gaussian smoother is applied to the estimated path. Intentional motion and shake can overlap, so review the result.
Adaptive border crop
Crop or zoom is sized from the estimated correction up to a strength-specific cap. Larger motion can still expose edges or leave residual shake.
How to stabilize a shaky video
- Open the tool and add your video Select a compatible file for Stabilize Video.
- Review and adjust Choose a smoothing level, process the clip, then review the crop, exposed edges, and residual motion before export.
- Export and download Review the exported result from Stabilize Video, then download it.
Frequently asked questions
How strong is the correction?
Choose light, medium, or strong smoothing. Each setting changes the path-smoothing window and the maximum adaptive border crop; results depend on the footage.
Does it fix rolling shutter wobble?
The current workflow estimates rigid frame-to-frame motion and does not specifically correct rolling-shutter distortion. Wobble and other residual motion can remain.
Why is there a zoom?
Motion compensation can expose empty borders. The tool sizes crop or zoom from the estimated correction up to the selected strength cap, but large or uncertain motion can still reveal edges.
How shaky can the footage be?
Results depend on scene detail, blur, movement, and tracking confidence. Strong or irregular shake can leave residual motion or require more crop than the selected cap allows.
How long a clip can I stabilize?
Up to 60 seconds per run. The whole clip is analyzed for motion, so longer footage uses more memory.
