FinalCut: Problems aligning a clip to an Object Track
Hello,
I have a clip in FCPX that is just a static PNG I dragged into the timeline. In another clip I have an Object Track following a person's face. When I select just the face (basically just the eyes) and click analyze, the green outline UI shows perfectly tracked eyes throughout the clip. There is never an obstruction to the face/eyes or anything like that, and the motion is not particularly fast or complex. Again, the green ui rectangle shows the exact motion I want from my other clip tracking this, but that's not what happens.
However, when I select the PNG clip and set it to use the Object Track I created the clip seems to move well beyond the tracking area. It's like the layer "yo-yos" or is elastic. If the eyes move a net amount of let's say 100px to the left, the object that's using the tracker moves 300px.
Also note, that I have to set the scale on the PNG clip to about 10% to make it the right size, but even removing the scale from the clip still shows it translating in the same way beyond the original object track's movement, so I don't think that's related.
Any suggestions? I have already tried the "Pin to Tracker", and it has the same issue. I have tried PNGs at 72 dpi and 300 dpi thinking it was a pixel scale related bug. I've tried a JPEG and another clip that is an MP4 video, all have the same over-translation problem. I have tried re-analyzing several times, and tried several different clips.
Thank you for reading.
