Fix Remotion flickering and blank frames by enforcing deterministic animation with useCurrentFrame and ensuring media is fully loaded via staticFile before rendering. Avoid CSS or third-party animation APIs that break determinism.

The best way to handle media loading in Remotion is using Remotion components like Img, Video, and Audio with staticFile references. This ensures assets are fully loaded before rendering, preventing timing bugs and blank frames.

CSS animations and third-party animation libraries are not recommended with Remotion because they break deterministic rendering. Drive animations strictly with useCurrentFrame to maintain timeline-safe, flicker-free video output.

Add captions and subtitles to a Remotion composition by applying focused domain-specific rules for subtitles. Load the applicable referenced rule documents to ensure timeline-safe text sequencing and deterministic rendering.

Remotion works with complex content like Three.js and Mapbox within video compositions. Apply deterministic rendering and media handling best practices to ensure these heavy components render without flickering or timing bugs.
