Review: libvidstab 1.1.1-1

Package Information

Descriptionvideo stabilization library (development files)

Imagine you captured a nice video with your camcorder, compact camera or even cell phone while skiing, cycling or whatever sports and the video is basically just jiggled.

Modern cameras come along with hardware stabilisation, however this does not work if you have really strong vibrations - rather the contrary - sometimes this mechanism starts to oscillate.

Vid.Stab is your friend in this matter. It is designed to stabilize even strongly jiggled clips.

This package contains the development files of vid.stab.
