I have finished this video…but a friend said there was a problem with it( it’s shaky she said ) 
…Can anyone tell me if it’s true and help me identify the problem?

(Note: The video is non-monetized so this is purely to get genuine opinions and advice)
Thank you in advance…

First… love it! Really, like your animation. : )
I don’t know if this is what your friend saw (I think so), but I just see one problem with the pendulum of the clock. The rotation point is incorrect.
I’ll show with an example that I have made:
The first is as you made it. The second, is a most natural for viewers. Look at every clock and you’ll see that the first is “strange”, but the second is “real” even it is a bad clock draw. : )
When you make an animation, you can break some rules, but others must be preserved, because the brain of the viewer waits that all works… even in cartoons.
Thank you for your compliment 
as well as for your comment…It is very accurate…You’re right…the rotation point is incorrect.
It’s about the shakiness of the frames that I’m worried …
Can you please compare the two videos below: They are the same …(first one edited by me…the second one was edited by a friend)
Which one looks normal (not faulty) ? and runs smoothly ?
Video1 : youtube.com/watch?v=L0yV0PRVqXM
Video2: youtube.com/watch?v=enc8jhKcVJA
I will really be grateful if you can help me…because I know there’s a problem ( more serious than the pendulum)

Uhm… I can see any difference. Both seem the same (smoothness) to me.
Why not your friend tell you exactly what he did or what he saw?
The unique difference I can see is that the second video use a “H.264 Baseline Profile level 3.0” code and the first video use “H.264 High Profile level 3.1”. But… well… I don’t know if it make any difference.
Hi Leila,
Awesome work as always! Though I would add a bit more explosions and… wait a second… what am I talking about?
About the problem. The first animation looks shaky, especially the camera movement, it’s ragged. The second one is better, but still suffering the same problem.
I believe it’s low framerate and video bitrate that causes ragged movement. Your animation has 10 FPS and ~900 Kb/s and if I understand something, it has to be at least 24 FPS with 2500 Kb/s video bitrate (because of high resolution - 1280x720).
Thanks for your lovely comment.
The framerate is 30 f/s …(it was in the settings) this is why I can’t understand . 
I used Virtualdub to edit it …
Is there a way I can fix this problem (shakiness) without having to redo everything from scratch?
Thanks in advance.
My video player (SMPlayer) shows me that your animation is only 10 FPS, so we need to determine who actually screwed your animation. Do you still have the original file (rendered animation, not Synfig file) before editing it in VirtualDub? If so, please open it in VirtualDub, then take a screenshot of “File->File Information…” window and post here.
Also, did you use “VirtualDub->File->Export->Image sequence” to save your animation?
Thanks for your reply,
Here’s a screenshot of the file information and I think that indeed it’s 10fps…
Is there a way I can change it to 30pfs or is it impossible? If so how?
Thanks a lot…This forum and its members have taught me a lot of things…I’m grateful.
Please, Leila, read posts more carefully. I asked “did you use VirtualDub->File->Export->Image sequence to save your animation?” and that was important question to understand your steps. And now I have to assume what you were doing by myself.
So, I guess, in Synfig you rendered your animation using png target, then you opened image sequence in VirtualDub to edit rendered animation (e.g. to add sound), and lastly you saved it to avi. Is this assumption correct? If so, then I found a solution, just need to clarify it first.
I am really sorry 
Yes, you guessed right… I rendered my animation using png.target then I used Virtual Dub to add the sound…I saved everything as AVI.
That’s it …
I’ve now rendered a part of the video using just synfig (target .avi)
The result is very fast…How can I adjust my animation frames to have a normal speed while at 30p/s?
Should I duplicate frames? or what?
Thanks
Please Svarov bring on this solution… 
Sorry that answering back take me so much time. With my job, I only have some free time on mornings before going to work…
Well, the “solution” is easy then:
About time… Your animation is 53 seconds long with 30 FPS. When VirtualDub was set to 10 FPS it caused your animation to slow down, because the total amount of frames is 1590(30 FPS*53 seconds) and VirtualDub was treating it like 158 seconds (1590 frames/10 FPS). So your clip was running slower and quality of the video was reduced.
To change the speed of animation without lowering quality of video you have to adjust your animation in Synfig and re-render the whole project. So, open Synfig and load your project, then open “File → Panels → Keyframes”. You will see all of keyframes and their length. Try manually adjusting all keyframes length. Unfortunately, I don’t know if there’s a better method…
Wow, I feel like I brought up a lot more work for you… Sorry for that 
Thank you so much for having taken the time to reply despite your busy Schedule. I’m grateful.
You helped me diagnose the issue and that is the most important thing. I will work on the animation on Synfig (it will be hard work but it will hopefully be worth it)
Once again thank you.
