Recently I was editing a video for our office. I wanted to stabilize a single clip on the time line. I get the option "Keyframe" and "Apply to all". On selecting keyframe I do not see the option for stabilization. I cannot use apply to all as it distorts normal clips.

I have read about this in the forum but unable to trace it.

I believe some one said to render the clip as a separate project and insert it in the main timeline.

Is this the only solution or I am missing something

Don't select "Keyframe" or "Apply to all", just click stabilize and then the X upper right to close Fix/Enhance window and you have it on your single clip.

That's brilliant. Never occurred to me. Thank you

Edit:

It would been less confusing had CL provided a button as "Single clip" or "OK"

I dream of a stabilizer that can be adjusted in a single clip.

You are right. Stabilization should be "keyframeable" as shakiness may not always be in the entire clip. Stabilization in PD actually zooms the image which is not always desired for the full clip. PC specs :

If you put splits in the clip, you can apply different amounts of stabilization to a single clip.

You would put a split at the beginning and at the end of that stabilization section.

That works of other enhancements also.

Splitting the clip works, but makes it appear as if a jump-cut has been done, ugly.
There are ways to hide it (title, brief switch to 2nd camera or image), but I think it can be done.
Prodad, who may or may not be working on a plug-in stabilizer for Cyberlink, has a speed program that applies more here, less there, without cuts, so I think it can be done with a stabie, too. HP Envy Phoenix/4thGen i7-4770(4@3.4GHz~turbo>3.9)

ProDAD Mercalli offers video stabilization. Don't know if we can "keyframe" with it. I think not. PC specs :

I probably shouldn't have brought it up as they have not yet joined the CL team, but the PD stabie works ok. Key framing would be a huge improvement.
