[QUOTE="AGallo, post: 113346, member: 18734"] ok, got it! In my videos I used to get that stepping effect when I mixed videos from a GoPro, a smartphone and maybe a drone without paying attention to the fps. By default, electronics purchased in Europe are set to 25fps (legacy from 50Hz electricity and analog tv scan lines!) and those from the USA are to 30fps. Mixing clips with two different frame rates is usually a big mess with that kind of stepping effect. 30fps is the same as 29.97, do not worry. How do you lock the exposure to the first main frame of a clip? I use an ND32 filter on my Spark and I manually set the exposure time to 1/60s to ensure I get a super smooth video. I leave ISO in auto so that it can control the overall light at best. I hate staggering vertical or horizontal bars in my videos, hence I go for 1/60s that works well for 30fps. Yet, I understand why you set the expo constant, sometimes I get a nasty sudden exposure change in my videos, like the sky suddenly becoming brighter or viceversa. I shall try your idea! Ok, let me add then that I love the way you have synchronised the soundtrack to the video (or viceversa), like the rhythm change at the beginning when the drone flies around you right after the prep tune and then the music changes with the next scene. Very well done! [/QUOTE]
