Here's an update to this original post.  I solved the problem.  I had my camera settings at 4K/24 fps.  I think the slow frame rate was the cause.  When I moved it up to 60 fps, the problem disappeared.

My Mavic Pro has suddenly started showing lots of vibration on my videos.  I tried changing the props, resetting the camera, the IMU and the compass.  No success.  I monkeyed with the settings for the control sticks too.  Nothing seems to help.  I know I've seen others talk about this problem in the past, but I don't remember what things were recommended.  Any advice?  I didn't do anything in post since I'm only trying to show the jitter.  Thanks in advance.

Maybe I missed it, but I didn't see vibration.  I noticed the lack of smooth panning though, is that what you are talking about?

Yes.  Perhaps I mislabeled the problem.  But I've been flying a long time and I've never had that kind of "wobble" or "shake" when doing a yaw.  I also get it just flying forward.  I always plant on finger hard alongside the bottom of the stick and then gently move that stick with my other hand.  So, I don't think it's me.  Like I said, I've been flying a long time and this effect is brand new.  Thanks for the quick response.

Have you update Smartdevice's OS you are running GO-4 on?  Added any new Apps to Smartdevice?  Have you updated GO-4 or Mavic Pro's Firmware?

Mine does that on a close up shot (like yours) when yawing.  When I'm high in the air and panning, I don't notice it then.  Same for you?

Change your props.  When is the last time they have been changed?  Seriously you might be surprised by a bad one or two props that can cause this.  

Oops sorry I missed in your OP that you already changed your props.  Although maybe change to another set if you have?  There is the prop test you can do to ensure that is not the issue at all because believe it or not even with a new set can introduct a bad prop.  

Check this video to get an idea.  Basically shows if you are getting vibrations that could be causing this even with no props.  And can check one by one to find if you have any bad.  And to show the point in my post above this guy swapped one bad prop and the one he swapped was bad as well.  Check it out  

And if the above does not work at all try refreshing the firmware on not only your AC but also your RC.  And my last suggestion if that does not work and you are say on the latest .400 firmware try rolling back to .300 to see if that clears it up.

Thanks.  Yes, I've done all of the above before doing the video I posted.

I would have thought removing all but one prop would have caused a Pre-Flight start up error.
Have to give this a try on my Mavic Pro, being I recently replaced all four Props.  

Thanks for Prop Tip!

Did that before posting.  Always a good idea, but it didn't help.  Thanks for the suggestion.

Which leads me to wonder if one of updates resulted in your ''Jello problem''.
Smartdevice's OS update may not be as efficient or smooth at playing live videos.
GO-4 App update may have a problem live view problem itself, or a problem working with your Smartdevice's OS.
Or updating Mavic Pro's firmware may have introduced live view streaming problem.

With multiple updates (multiple changes at once) it will be difficult to narrow down if one or more caused your ''Jello problem'' or eliminate the updates as possible causes - to get to actual cause.

Good points.  But from experience, I always wait 2 to 3 weeks before implementing any updates to iPhone or drone.  I then watch the forum here to see if others are reporting any problems.  If not, then I make the update.  

Hello! I received a similar problem after replacing the control loop with a gimbal suspension. There was a slight crash, after which the gimbal suspension refused.
I changed the control loop with a gimbal  again, it only helped partially. And I completely solved the problem by completely replacing the gimbal with the camera. These kits are on Ali and cost about 200 dollars.
Replace is not very difficult - it took me about half an hour. There are quite a few instructions on the net

As we have read here about MA and MP, the problems with Installer, FW, GO-4 code, and/or Smartdevice OS does not impact every drone / drone-owner.   Maybe this time, you are one of unlucky ones?   
Or ''Jello problem'' is due to entirely different cause?

Wonder if IMU's Pitch, Roll, Yaw and Surge, Heave, Sway motion sensors could be used in place of cup of liquid?  
DJI being able to add an optional Prop check under IMU calibration setup.

I agree that would be great.  And could see the vibration in the app from the sensors.  No reason why this should not already be built in as it is.  Would mitigate the risk of somehow spilling that coffee

I went back and looked at some recent videos, and it shows up there too.  I guess it's been going on for awhile - certainly before the latest firmware update.

Thanks Spark.  I'll try both the coffee and the roll back later today.

Thanks Alexei.  I'm not too far form the LA repair office for DJI, so if I can't solve it with the suggestions I get here, I'll just send it down to them.  Better to have someone else do it who does it every day.

See my note at the top.  Problem was solved by changing frame rate from 24 fps to 60 fps.

I plan to try the liquid test, but I plan to use a sealed cup.
Maybe steal a kid's sippy cup...  

StanfordWebbie Posted at 2018-7-9 10:17

Do you mean 30fps for 4k?  Or to 60fps in 1080p?  Was not aware could go 60fps in 4k.

Yeah or seal the top with something but I would not leave an open cup on top of my MP that is for sure lol.  Great idea with the kids sippy cup.

Great Test and solution !!!

I will to test with "Old Jack" (before drink it)

Very observant.  I changed to 1080 to get 60fps.  I haven't attempted to get a better resolution along with a higher fps, but I will next time I go out.  I was just excited to get back in the house and confirm that the problem was gone.

Try 4K@30fps and see if you no longer have the issue as well.  I will do some testing using 4K@24fps and see if mine is choppy as well.

OK.  Let's exchange stories once we both test things out.  Thanks,

my theory is the heaviest side of the gimbal is sagging or stretched just enough that its out of balance and causing small burst of gimbal vibration thus jello this i think comes from the metal lobe under the anti-drop hook either slipping past the anti drop hook or it getting past end of its understood range....using little piece of velcro (like 1CM by 1CM) over the lobe on the left side (heaviest side) where bands connect to the metal lobe under the anti-drop hooks allows the heavier side of the gimbal to not slip out of range or bash around on the anti-drop hook.   my testing is very premature, but thus far, no jello using it this botch....

Thanks for the response, but I think you missed my latest post letting people know that the problem was that I had my video set for 24 fps.  When I went to 60 fps, the problem went away.  That forced my resolution to be 1080, so I'll be going back out to try 4K at 30 fps.

So I tried 4K at 30fps and it too works well.  So, at least for my Mavic Pro, I just need to stay away from 24 fps.

that does not work for me, i still get jelloing with any frame rate and resolution fairly equally, and i like my ISO to be at most 800 pre fable the lowest i can go for the cleanest image...

my solution still testing out is a physical mod and so far its working, but really have to trim it down or gimbal itself can catch and freak out.

My MP had jello issues right from the start with gimbal neutral weight. Had to add Polar pro filter to add weight to the gimbal, this helped but did not totally remove the jello, cut some thin strips of Gorilla Duct tape (measured for correct length and wrapped it around my ND's (added a little more weight) this cured the jello, if I take the filter off jello returns. This after many discussions seems to be a gimbal balance issue. Thinking a certain lot of MP's were released with this issue. For me the type of filter is irrelevant it is the weight that makes the difference. Been flying the MP for over a year now with no jello issues.

ill try this! my method is not ideal, because i just hit a nasty gust of wind and it caused my gimbal to move outside of normal range and my camera was pointed up and stuck... a mile out so that was interesting

I do not think the OP issue was a so called jello issue that others have due to gimbal shake, etc.  The OP issue was just choppy video all along due to fps.  If you watched the video you will see that is not a case of jello.  However I will say good solutions here regardless just stating the fact that this issue was not due to shake.  Thanks to this thread I have learned how to test for vibrations due to bad props, and also thanks to QK video how balancing out the weight with a filter can help if you do have a gimbal imbalance issue.  So good learning experience here
