To manually reposition or track a window that can’t be interpolated properly:

1.

Open the Object Tracking Controls of the Viewer page, and click Key Frame to change
the tracking mode.

2.

Move the playhead to the last frame of the clip that was successfully tracked.

3.

Move the playhead frame by frame, adjusting the position of the window at each frame
to move along with the feature that you’re trying to track.

Continue adjusting the window frame by frame until you’ve reached the end of the
clip, or reached the end of the gap in tracking data so that the window is now at the
beginning of the next successfully tracked section of the clip.

Using Tracking and Stabilization Commands With the DaVinci

Resolve Control Surface

All of the tracking commands are available via the DaVinci Resolve control surface.

To open and close tracking controls:

Press OBJECT TRACK MODE at the top of the T-bar panel.

All of the tracking controls appear on the display buttons of the center and T-bar
panels.

To do simple tracking:

Use the TRACK FWD, TRACK REV, and STOP TRACK soft buttons on the left side of
the center panel.

Press SHOW TRACK if you want to see the resulting motion path.

To turn tracking on and off for Pan, Tilt, Zoom, and Rotate:

1.

Press the P/T/Z/R ENABLE display button.

The middle four display buttons of the center panel change to display PAN ON/OFF,
TILT ON/OFF, ZOOM ON/OFF, and ROTATE ON/OFF.

2.

Use these buttons to toggle any of these checkboxes on or off, then press BACK to go
back to the other tracking controls.

To interpolate between two separately tracked ranges of frames:

1.

Use the transport controls to move the playhead to the first frame you want to place a
mark, and press MARK.

A Viewer Mark appears on the tracking bar, identifying either the beginning or the end
of the gap in that clip’s motion tracking data.
