To prevent flickering and nondeterministic video rendering in Remotion, you must drive all animations with the useCurrentFrame() hook instead of CSS transitions or uncontrolled animation APIs to ensure deterministic output.

The correct way to load media assets in Remotion is by using the staticFile() helper alongside the dedicated Img, Video, and Audio components, which ensures assets are properly synchronized and loaded safely during the rendering pipeline.

Yes, Three.js and Mapbox work with Remotion without rendering glitches by applying specific integration best practices that synchronize third-party renderers with Remotion's deterministic frame-based timing and media pipeline.

Remotion captions and text animations become out of sync when timing relies on uncontrolled animation APIs rather than useCurrentFrame(), so refactoring components to enforce Remotion-specific rules resolves the synchronization issues.

The limitation of using CSS transitions in React-based Remotion scenes is that they bypass frame-accurate deterministic rendering, causing timing bugs and flickering, so you should exclusively use useCurrentFrame() for all animation logic.
