This is an Electron app written as a frontend for ffmpeg using the new vid.Stab library. vidSmooth takes an input video and outputs a stabilized version in high quality mp4/h264 format.
Download and install for your OS:
- Any codec supported by ffmpeg will be supported as an input video (mp4, m4v, avi, wmv, mov, flv, mpg, mpeg, gif)
- Most settings vidStab uses as input are exposed to the user
- accuracy
- shakiness
- smoothing
- maxshift
- maxangle
- crop method
- camera path
- tripod mode
- The user has the option to select a portion of the input video and create a stabilized sample before committing to the entire video
- By nature of any smoothing algorithm, often the frame will have to zoomed / cropped to produce a consistently smoothed video. As this is the case, a higher resolution video will give a better result
- When creating a sample clip, the progress bar only updates on 33%, 66% and 100%. If a long clip is selected or the client machine is slow, the user might think nothing is happening when it actually is.
- Occasionally ffmpeg will choke on a video input type, but since there is no error control built into this app, it will just stop responding
- When the smoothing settings are too agressive, vid.Stab will 1) over-crop a large portion of the video an/or 2) introduce edge artifacts in an attempt to interpolate video data
- If tripod mode is set to on, but the input video pans away from a subject, the result is that the edge pixels get smeared across the video and no further useful video will be displayed
- Dramtically shaking videos that are heavily smoothed can have a jello effect, depending on the type of sensor used in shooting the footage
- you must first install Node 12
