Stabilization Compatbiliity

Stabilization is available with the latest app release and can be applied to original or trimmed Ember clips recorded using Firmware v1.5.2. Stabilization is also available for original clips recorded with Firmware v1.4.14+.

Firmware v1.5.2 clips trimmed using QuickTime or “Quick Look” on Mac can be used with Stabilization.

ProRes 422 LT clips trimmed and exported by Ember App v1.5 from Firmware v1.4.14+ can also be used with Stabilization. Note: Playback/Export toggle must be set to 'USB' to export compatible clips. See below for use with compatible iOS devices with Lightning ports.

Using Stabilization

Connect Your Disk

Press the "Connect" button to open the connection screen.

You can connect directly to Ember or a Disk with Ember clips using a USB Cable.

For optimal performance, a USB 3.0 (or USB 3.2 Gen 1) cable is recommended

Stabilize Your Markers

Configure your Zoom and Smoothing percentages. Select your lens focal length. Stabilize.

Stabilization settings are independent between markers.

Export

Export clips to your iOS Device's Gallery using 'Photos' as your export destination. For greater compatibility with 5K ProRes 422 LT exports, use 'Files' to export to the iOS File system, or to an additional device connected over USB.

Additional Info

  • Stabilization is only available over USB, and can only be used on clips recorded on Ember. The clips can be stored on Ember, or clips stored on external disks.

  • Using the Ember app you can trim 1.4.14+ clips and export them as 'ProRes 422 LT' and retain the ability to Stabilize them later using the Ember app. Playback/Export mode must be set to "USB".

  • 100% Smoothing doesn’t equate to no motion, just a smoother path between larger camera movement with maximum jitter and high frequency motion removed.

  • Stabilization works best with low distortion lenses, distortion compensation will be coming in a future release.

Known Issues

  • While clips will export correctly stabilized, the Stabilization preview may be slightly out of sync in cases where 1.5.2 on clips that have been trimmed, or reading from a slower storage medium (i.e USB 2.0, or a Network Disk)

Please direct any questions or feedback to support@freeflysystems.com

To stabilize a clip, create markers as usual. In Ember app v1.5+ You'll notice a new grey icon that will take you to Stabilization settings. This icon is green for clips that will be stabilized during export.

Users with are able to use Stabilization with an additional Lightning to USB Adapter. Because Lightning is Slower than USB-C, devices will experince some issues previewing Stabilization, however the output will be correct.

We reccomend , however Lightning on iPhones operate at USB 2.0 Speeds which can cause a known issue to occour.
