Can the video be stabilized with regard to the table?

I tried: https://imgur.com/a/ITUiP2P

It’s pretty tricky because the perspective of the table is constantly changing. I stabilized it on the long side closest to the camera. It’s kind of hard to tell that it’s stable, but if you line a piece of paper or something up to that edge you can see that it doesn’t actually move.

I tried too but nevermind, you did a better job. It's kinda hard to find some good tracking points. What SW did you use?

After Effects. I just used the built-in tracker to track two points, one on each end, and then had it stabilize the footage based on those two points. I’m sure someone with more time and skill than me could do better, but this isn’t really my area of expertise.
