I have some footage that I recorded meanwhile walking. It is shaky, so I need to stabilize it.
I tried vreveal, which stabilizes the video really fast (it used nvidia video cards as accelerator). But when I save the video, it is encoded with poor quality. It gets blocky and blurred.
I also tried uploading it to youtube, and using his stabilization. Then downloading the stabilized video. But the footage turns blocky and blurred.
Then I tried Adobe Premiere Pro CC 7.1. It also supports my GPU for stabilization.
It does a better job, but is ultra slow. It may take a day to do the precalculations, (despite being gpu accelerated), just for some minutes of footage (at 1920x1080p), and it crashes because I only have 6 Gb of ram, and it demands even more.
My footage is 40 minutes long, so the only way I can use Premiere Pro is to cut the footage into 1 minute pieces, stabilize it, and save small pieces.
Then I need to paste all the pieces, but the ending result is again bad, because I encode the files many times, and each time the video quality is degraded. And the entire process takes weeks.
Do you know a faster way which also preserves quality? Some fix?
My PC specs are:
Processor: i7 920 (4 processors 8 threads).
Ram: 6 Gb try channel 1600
GPU: Geforce GTX 670
Windows 7 64 bit (but I would use Linux if necessary)
