How to remove freeze frames and duplicate frames from a video

Spot a real freeze frame

Step through the clip frame by frame. If the same image repeats and the next frame jumps ahead, it is a timing fault in the file.

A deliberately still shot is not a fault; MotionFixer only treats a hold as an error when motion before and after it shows the movement should have continued.

Why not just delete duplicate frames?

Deleting frames changes the duration and shifts the audio. Repairing keeps the exact frame count and timing, so the video still lines up with music and voice.

Remove freeze frames in three steps

1. Create a free account and upload the MP4 or MOV. 2. The scan finds every freeze and repeated frame automatically. 3. Download the repaired file once it is validated.

Frequently asked questions

Can every freeze be fixed?

Not always. Long freezes, turning faces, spinning blades, water or smoke may keep the original frames so the image is not damaged.

Does it lower quality?

Untouched frames are copied exactly; only the repaired frames are newly created.

Which formats are supported?

MP4 and MOV uploads, including 1080p and higher. The result is an MP4 at the source resolution and frame rate.
