What is Frame-Drop Shedding
Missing frames in time-lapses or high-speed footage, causing jerky playback.
How to Spot Frame-Drop Shedding
- Sudden jumps or stutters in movement.
- Inconsistent frame durations in your editing timeline.
Causes of Frame-Drop Shedding
- Variable frame-rate records (VFR).
- Data overload on the card or slow drive causing dropped frames.
Fixes for Frame-Drop Shedding
- Conform VFR to constant frame-rate in a transcoding step (e.g., Apple Compressor).
- Enable “optical flow” or frame-blend interpolation for smoothing.
- Use stabilization/filter plugins that fill gaps.
