Remotion videos flicker during export when using CSS animations or third-party animation libraries. Reliable rendering requires driving all animations frame-by-frame via the useCurrentFrame hook instead of CSS transitions.

To import media safely in Remotion, place images, videos, audio, and fonts in the public folder and reference them using the staticFile function. This guarantees assets are fully loaded before rendering frames.

Yes, Remotion supports specialized rendering for 3D scenes using Three.js and React Three Fiber, plus maps via Mapbox. All scene transformations must be driven by useCurrentFrame to ensure deterministic export output.

The best way to trim audio and validate media duration in Remotion is applying Mediabunny and FFmpeg-based measurements. These tools standardize asset validation and sequencing to prevent timeline artifacts during export.

Yes, Remotion supports chart rendering using SVG, D3, and path animations. All chart path transitions and data morphing must be calculated via useCurrentFrame rather than CSS transitions to remain export-safe.

Transparent output and transition failures in Remotion typically occur when animation timing is not properly sequenced. You must standardize composition sequencing and drive all overlays via useCurrentFrame to ensure reliable alpha channel rendering.
