Jitter is a Shotcut Video Filter that creates a jittery or juddery clip. It does this by replacing a number of frames with a previous one. The parameter can be key-framed (see the screenshot below). If you set the parameter to 0 you will see no jitter, if you set it to 1 you will see every odd frame replaced by the even frame that precedes it, if you set it to 2 you will see the frame sequence 000333666999....
