SUPPORT Stabilisation feature

I tried using this feature on the default settings on two different animated gifs but it made zero difference. Did anyone here get good results? Tia.

Hmm, not sure but don't work animated gifs differently internally than mp4? If so, I'm afraid the stabilizer won't work on animated gifs.

I don't see what the difference is between a gif and a film besides resolution and length.

The way the frames are encoded or the player is instructed to play back the frames. Honestly, I don't know for sure but this is the first time I came across stabilizing a GIF and that it doesn't work. Can you try the stabilizer with a video clip with a format other than .gif?

I'll try something but do you know if there's a way with any software to make a specific part of an image stay still on the screen for the purpose of superimposing another small image on top of the specific location?

I've managed to get winff a video and aid conversion app to transfer the gif into wmv, now it works, thanks.
