Gyroflow: An open source advanced gyro-based video stabilization tool

It looks cool, though I still find myself looking for Hyperlapse[0] alternatives. Hyperlapse seemed like magic when announced, particularly, not needing to crop large parts of shaky videos<p>[0] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;blogs.microsoft.com&#x2F;ai&#x2F;hyperlapse-siggraph-2014&#x2F;" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;blogs.microsoft.com&#x2F;ai&#x2F;hyperlapse-siggraph-2014&#x2F;</a>

I tried to use this with my Sony camera about two years ago and just could not get consistent results. Currently using Sony&#x27;s Catalyst Browse which does a great job stabilizing the footage but the workflow is poor.<p>Looks like Gyroflow has a plugin for DaVinci Resolve[1]. If the stabilization has been improved and could be done right in Resolve I will definitely us this.<p>[1] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;docs.gyroflow.xyz&#x2F;app&#x2F;getting-started&#x2F;installation&#x2F;davinci-resolve-plugin-openfx" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;docs.gyroflow.xyz&#x2F;app&#x2F;getting-started&#x2F;installation&#x2F;d...</a>

I use Gyroflow to stabilize GoPro footage from autocross events since I can&#x27;t stand the left&#x2F;right panning from GoPro&#x27;s HyperSmooth stabilization. Gyroflow lets me disable stabilization on that axis and the results look great for my use case.

Utilised much by the FPV drone community, such that some camera systems even advertise Gyroflow compatibility

If you want to try this you have to change the way you work with shutter speeds (and ND-filters) or else you will get horrible results. See: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;docs.gyroflow.xyz&#x2F;app&#x2F;getting-started&#x2F;common-filming-tips-and-issues" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;docs.gyroflow.xyz&#x2F;app&#x2F;getting-started&#x2F;common-filming...</a>

Just tried it on some random GoPro footage and was very impressed! First - by the quality of stabilization. It is if not better then at the same level as in Gopro itself (which is considered having best e-stabilisation on the market). And second, that now I can shoot with disabled stabilization and choose amount of crop in post. I know that Sony offers similar thing with Catalyst Browse, but it is very unconvenient to use additional application to render stabilized footage, here I can just use plugin for Davinci and have seamless workflow.

Can we feed it with gyro data from a phone? It seems straightforward to run a background app recording gyro data while we record a video.

I prefer the mechanical stabilization of the Osmo Pocket. So much smoother in my opinion.

When stabilizing and shooting with a cinematic shutter speed (1&#x2F;48s) you have the problem with motion blur from the camera shake. This blur looks very odd when stabilized. Does Gyroflow have any functionality or tips toward this?

Very timely! Im currently mountain biking on vacay and has some footage ruined due to really roughly trail conditions! Going to give this a try

This software is pure gold. I would actually love to give a donation to support its developement if possible.

What do they mean by &quot;gyro-based&quot;?

Nice! Was looking for this recently!

Unrelated to the software itself, but it is amazing how this website runs http without redirecting to https. You don&#x27;t see that very often any more. It&#x27;s probably an oversight, I guess :)
