Georgy, I suppose it was not intentional, but in case this did not arrive to Cin ML (likely, it's not in the archive), I want to send this email, because I worked a couple of hours on it, and I mentioned it in another email today. I need it to show what issues I had.

I'm removing one layer of citation, for legibility, as if Georgy sent it, not me. ==========================================================

Phyllis has such a very shaky example. May be, I have yet a cingg project to stabilize it using Motion plugin keyframes. Should I search for it? If you think so.
Miroslav, in attachment you find the archive. Unpack it, there are two files: the source video clip, and the cingg project file. This is a rather difficult example not only because of strong shaking. Moreover, the video is taken perhaps from a moving car, so the landscape itself in the viewport is changing. The example project demonstrates the possibility of the Motion plugin to switch from one key part of image to another as the former part goes off the viewport, becomes obscured or changes shape. This is not smoothing video, but freezing it. The result is not completely still, but additionally applying vidstab to it perhaps should improve the result once more. To test, do the following after unpacking:
Open shaker2.xml (replace current project)
Make sure: Motion and Time Average must be off Rewind to the beginning Uncheck 'Play track'
Open Motion controls dialog Action: Do Nothing Calculation: Save coords to tracking file Scroll timeline forward, set cursor after the next keyframe Action: Do Nothing Calculation: Save coords to tracking file Repeat that for all the rest keyframes (total of 4) Close Motion controls dialog
Rewind to the beginning Switch Motion on Check 'Play track' Play forward up to the end
Video will be still very shaky. The file 'motion-shaker4' will appear in /tmp
Uncheck 'Play track' Rewind to the beginning
Open Motion controls dialog Action: Stabilize Subpixel Calculation: Load coords from tracking file Scroll timeline forward, set cursor after the next keyframe Action: Stabilize Subpixel Calculation: Load coords from tracking file Repeat that for all the rest keyframes (total of 4) Close Motion controls dialog
Rewind to the beginning Switch Motion on Switch Time Average on Check 'Play track' Render project
Now compare the result of rendering with the original one.
.......
Some of my examples to apply ffmpeg's vid.stab is as follows:
rm transforms.trf ffmpeg -i video-src.mp4 -c:v rawvideo -filter:v vidstabdetect -an -f null -y /dev/null ffmpeg -i video-src.mp4 -c:v libx264 -filter:v vidstabtransform,unsharp=5:5:0.8:3:3:0.4 -b:v 12000k -b:a 192k -ac 2 -ar 48000 -y video-dst.m4v

Hi Georgy, Phillis and the team! Here's how my tentative with the shaker2.xml and the video went: https://croatiafidelis.hr/foss/cap/cap-220925-cinelerra/pg-220926-motion.php The files necessary are there (as I got them in email that missed to be sent to Cin ML). Why it did not produce the expected result? (I haven't examined the XML-after yet, but it's available on the page.) And I can also try and see if I can do better with the files at: https://www.cinelerra-gg.org/media/demos/stabilize/ Regards! -- Miroslav Rovis Zagreb, Croatia https://www.CroatiaFidelis.hr my PGP-key: https://www.croatiafidelis.hr/FCF13245ED247DCE443855B7EA9884884FBAF0AE.asc
