Smoothcam Glitch

Hi,

I've recently imported a short clip into my timeline where I applied the Smoothcam filter. Afterwards I noticed a window pop-up stating that Smoothcam was analyzing background for 20 different clips. I then noticed that many clips in my timeline looked zoomed in, and when I double clicked on those clips many had the Smoothcam filter on them. Did I do something wrong, as I applied Smoothcam only on one clip in the timeline, but is it possible that Smoothcam got applied to other clips within the same folder as the short clip?

Any help much appreciated!

Is the short clip in some way part of a longer clip?

Did you capture a long rip, then edit multiple shots from it onto your timeline?

Smoothcam does an entire media clip. If your capture is 10 minutes and you use 20 frames on the timeline, it analyzes the whole 20 minutes.

The workaround is to export just the part you plan on using (with handles for transitions) as a self-contained movie, then process that with Smoothcam.
