Good morning,
I'm sending you a message because it seems that I have a problem with the stabilization on Davinci Resolve.
Indeed, when I try to activate the option, the image is cropped, but is in no way stabilized (or even less than at the base). I tried the different types of zooms, activating or not the "camera lock", trying to create a compound or fusion clip, on a retime shot or not, activate the proxies, original camera or deactivate the proxies but nothing helps. This affects an entire project, not a single shot or timeline. I also tried to create another project and copy and paste my plans but the same, it's as if they were contaminated.

The software is up to date, the MacOS too and what's even more incomprehensible is that my colleague who works with me, in the same accommodation, with almost the same hardware (a well-boosted MacBook Pro M2 Max), has not this anomaly when I send him the projects. Indeed, he normally manages to stabilize all plans. We checked the davinci settings, project settings, and everything is the same.
As for the camera, we film with a RED KOMODO in 6144 x 3240, and in 24fps. The codec is r3d.

Thank you in advance and sorry for my English I'm French lol

I have the same issue, my footage is just slightly moving but any stabilization i do makes it much worse and has jumps an glitches all over

My footage is 4k 60fps of dancing, but the bass make the camera shake a little bit.

The stabilisation has been glitchy particularly if you apply it in batches (selecting many clips and then stabilising) or if you change the clip (the length for example) after it's been stabilised.

When that happens my workaround is to apply another type of stabilisation and then go back to the stabilisation you wanted in the first place.

Does that help?

yes i know that but same if i change type of stabilisation. And, when i do, it's on 1 clip, not on a group of clips...

Does that help?

but does that work on that one clip?

Are you allowed to share a problem clip for testing, Matéo?

I would be surprised if Stabilization could correct that.

I have the exact same problem. No matter what I do, the stabilization does nothing to offer any kind of correction. It will introduce a small crop, but the actual footage remains just as shaky as the original. I even tried importing the same clip into Premiere Pro and used warp stabilizer, and it worked perfectly.

There is a bug, or some setting in Davinci resolve that is making the stabilization function, non-functional.
