Flickering when using Next.js <Image> tag

The following code is discouraged in Remotion:

import Image from "next/image";

const myMarkup = <Image src="https://picsum.photos/200/300"></Image>;

Problem

Remotion has no way of knowing when the image is finished loading because it is impossible to determine so when loading an image through <Image>.

This will lead to Remotion not waiting for the image to be loaded during rendering and cause visible flickers.

Solution

Use the <Img> tag instead:

import { AbsoluteFill, Img } from "remotion";

const myMarkup = <Img src="https://picsum.photos/200/300" />;
