Codec problems in final cut

I have a Brand New 17" inch MacBook Pro. Having a number of performance issues.
1. Running Photoshop CS5 I frequently get an error message saying "insufficient memory" when trying to add effects or save large files.
2. Running Final Cut Pro 7, I get the following error code when trying to render small video clips: "Codec not found. You may be using a compression type with out the corresponding hardware card".
Can anyone relate to this or help me out? Please.

HT5149 Hi, I still have problems reinstalling Final Cut Pro even though I followed these steps. Didn´t find "com.apple.motionapp.plist" to remove though, but the others I found. Reason why I have to reinstall is because I have repaired my Macbook Pro hard

Hi, I still have problems reinstalling Final Cut Pro even though I followed these steps.
Reason why I have to reinstall is because I have repaired my Macbook Pro hard drive at a Mac Authorized Repair.
Short history of repair and my Final Cut Pro installation:
1. Macbook Pro stopped working, sendt it for repair. Had the Final Cut Pro installed,
2. Desided to try a MiniMac and recovered my backup with Time Machine, got the Final Cut Pro working.
3. Got my Macbook Pro back from repair, did backup on this one as well. But this time only the files not the Applications.
4. Removed the files as mentioned in HT5149. Didn´t find "com.apple.motionapp.plist" to remove though, but the others I found.
5. When I try to install Final Cut Pro from App Store, it downloads the application as planned. But after download it won´t show in the Application folder nor in the downloads folder, nor will it start an installation prosess. If I pause the installation in App Store, I can see the Final Cut Pro icon in my Dock. (But, as mentioned, after installation it won´t show neither here or in the Applications folder).
Any suggestions on what I should try now?
Thanks for any reply, I´m in deep water here...

Sounds like there is a file you're not getting. Never do a removal manually. It's so time consuming and a pain. There's a very easy and fast way to do this, safely, properly.
Get the free "Final Cut Remover" app from Digital Rebellion (dot com), use this to remove FCP X.
Reboot the Mac.
Download from scratch.
If you're not seeing FCP X in your app folder, run Disk Utility to Repair all drives.
If that doesn't help, try running Disk Warrior from Altsoft to repair the directories on all drives.

I have a new iMac but having problems installing final cut express 4 from old macbook pro ?

i have a new iMac but having problems installing final cut express 4 from old macbook pro ?

FCE was discontinued nearly 3 years ago and is no longer supported.
I don't know whether it's possible to install it on Mavericks and if you do it may not perform properly.
Final Cut pro X and iMovie are the only Apple apps that are supported.

Graphic problem with Final cut pro X

Hello
Since some days I have graphical problems, it seems it is related to final cut pro X (10.0.8), all other programms are running well.
When I import events to my project the graphic is ok:
After modification, example: here stabilization on, I have some colored pixels in the preview:
After this happens once, I found some colored pixel also in other programs or on the background picture.
I'm not sure if I have a problem with final cut or with the graphic card. When I use my iMac without final cut, I found no problems
Can anybody help me? Thank you

Thank you for you answer.
I have 12 GB Memory and Final Cut Pro X was working properly until now.
The problem occure already at the preview windows, as soon as I close Final cut the graphic background looks good again.
I found that I have a similar problem also with iMovie, so I think it is maybe a hardware and not a software problem.
The hardware test does not show any problems, do you know another method to test the graphic card?

Chroma Key problems with Final Cut Express 4

I had no problems with the Chroma Key in Final Cut Express 4 before. It was working perfectly fine untill I brought anther Macbook Pro last year in August. I installed it on the new computer and then the Chroma Key didn't work. Final Cut opens up and the other filters work fine but I can't get the chroma key to work. Any possible reasons?

I am experiencing an interseting problem with Final Cut Express on OSX Lion. I teach in a Mac Lab at my school. Today I was trying to teach Chroma Keying- which I have been doing for years - but for some reason the color selector would just not key out anything. I tried it on four or five different machines, and it turns out that ONLY my machines that were running OSX Leopard would allow the Chroma Key to function. I have two machines running Lion and the Chroma Key would not work on EITHER of them. I followed the exact same steps, and all of the settings were identical. The hardware was also the exact same package from machine to machine. I feel like there must be an issue with OSX Lion that is breaking the Chroma Key filter. Can anyone help?

Animation stuttering problem in final cut 6

I am using some animations that I created in After Effects in a Final Cut Pro sequence. The sequence is set at DV/DVCPRO -NTSC 23.98. Every time i render the files they stutter. I tried to render the the animations out of after effects with a proress codec and they played fine in the timeline but when I did a final export the animations stutter again. I thought it might be a problem with my animations so I tried to use an old animation that I created a year ago with the same frame rate. It stuttered as well. I then opened an old final cut file created in FCP 5 and played that exact same animation in the old file. It was still connected to the old render files so it played fine. But if I dragged that exact same animation file into the the same timeline and rendered it again it stuttered. Something is obviously wrong with FCP 6. I took the animations two 2 other computers running FCP 6 and they all did the same thing. I then brought it to a Computer running FCP 5 and they rendered and played fine.
I have to get the project out but I have no way to render it out without it stuttering.
Any ideas?

DV/DVCPRO -NTSC 23.98. Every time i render the files they stutter
You will need to precisely define "stuttering." The term gets thrown around here like everyone knows what it means.
It is physically impossible for a 23.98 clip from After Effects to not render properly inside a 23.98 FCP sequence, assuming the field settings match between the two projects. So, when you say stuttering, are frames repeating, holding, skipping, speeding up, slowing down? Is it always the exact same frames that do this stuttering thing or does the artifact move? The answers will make a huge difference on where we'd send you next. But I gotta warn you, debugging this stuff is almost impossible by remote control.

HT4740 How can I avoid or solve the problem of Final Cut Pro crashes when trying to Show Events Library?

When I try to Show Events Library in Final Cut Pro, it crashes each time. Please tell me how do I work around this problem?

Try creating a new (temporary) folder and putting all your events in there - then launch FCP X.
If you can open the Browser, then it's possible one or more of the clips in one of your events is corrupt. Close the app and move the events back into their original places one by one (re-starting FCP X each time). This will help you find the event which has the corrupt file in it.
If isolating the events has no effect, I suggest you trash your preferences.
Unexplained faults like this can often be fixed by clearing out FCP X's preferences (for some reason, they get knotted up from time to time).
Download Digital Rebellion's Preference Manager (free, simple to use, and perfectly safe, both to download and use).
http://www.digitalrebellion.com/prefman/
With Preference Manager, you can backup the Prefs when FCP X (or any of the Apple Professional Applications) are working normally. Then when either of the applications are acting strangely, Trash the Preferences, then Restore from your backups (just a mouse-click).
If you trash the prefs and don't restore them, you will need to manually restore all your FCP X settings again, so it's a great idea to backup Preferences from time to time when FCP X is working well, then your backups are up to date.
Doesn't fix every problem, but it fixes a lot.

Problem inporting final cut pro documents

I import video and edit it using Final Cut Pro 5.0.1. I export it using QuickTime video with DV NSTC coding. I use iMovie to compress the video (usually around 10-15 gigs) to podcast them using iWeb. It works like a charm about half the time. The other half iMovie will not let me even import the video into it. It tells me that there is an unknown error and wont let me import the video. But then Ill try a different video, imported and exported the same way and it will work fine. I need some help. i cant figure out what the problem is.

I'll wager that while you moved the media/renders to an external drive, you didn't change the Waveform Cache, Thumbnail Cache, Autosave Vault, etc...

Problems installing Final Cut Studio on my new Macbook Pro

I just got my new 17 inch Macbook Pro, and am trying to install Final Cut Studio 3. It installed just fine, and accepted the serial number. The problem is that every time I open the application, I have to reenter the serial number. Once I do that, it runs fine, but the next time, I have to reenter the info again. Anyone have an idea of how to fix this?
Rob Krampf

do some searching here. I remember other people having this problem. You might also try repairing permissions on your startup drive, deleting your fcp preferences

Need Help, crazy HDV Problem with Final Cut

Hi Guys, first thanks for looking my problem.
I have a new Macbook Pro 2,4Ghz with 4GB RAM and Leopard 10.5.4
So also I have Final Cut Studio 1 updated on 5.1.4.
My problem: As i captured HDV Material i saw in Quicktime, that there are many fragments, more terrible then hdv compression.In Final Cut 5 the same. So i was looking for an other Mac, so i've found an G5 also with Final Cut 5.1.4 and Tiger OS. But there i saw nothing, no fragments, all good(same material).
So i think its a problem with between macbook pro,leopard, hdv and final cut 5.1.4
Can anyone help me, im also able to give you a screenshot with the fragmets. There are very strong to see in the grey colors.

Audio problem with Final Cut Pro x. (New to x)

Hello,
I recently switched over to Final Cut Pro x and am just now starting to get adjusted. I just ran into this problem and I'm having trouble solving on my own. Here you go...
I just imported a bunch of video into my "event" and went through and logged everything. Everything sounds fine until I drag my clips onto the timeline. Once I drag them down the audio gets lower and sounds very muffled. Does anyone know what would be the cause of this?
Thanks!
Clayton

What are the exact specs of the original media? Open in the QT player and report what it says in the movie inspector.

Interlace problem with Final Cut Pro

Hi,
I have been using Final Cut Studio now from September and I am still learning things. I still have one problem that is persistent and have not found a solution anywhere, not in help or anywhere:
- I shoot my videos with Canon EOS 5D mark II DSLR at 1920x1080 30p.
- I want to keep the resolution and 30p, with no interlace spoiling the image
- I have been recently successful avoiding the disease called interlace, however now I started trying out the SmoothCam filter and each time after using it my image is ruined with interlace. It is in the rendered video as well, no matter if I use Compressor or FCP Quicktime conversion to render, despite I have selected 1920x1080 30p as output.
This is very aggravating because I don't want to know where the interlace is needed since I have no displays that would support interlace and don't know anybody who still would have (everybody is using FullHD something, so I try to create FullHD progressive content only, no tube television support of any kind is desired).
Here is a short example video how the FCP forces interlace. Look at the eyes on 1080p display:
http://www.katix.org/karoliina/media/aki.mov
Everything in my chain is 1080 30p progressive. I don't have anything interlaced anywhere. Still after smoothcam rendering the result ends this crappy. How can I fix this or is this a bug in the software?

I can't answer the question about MXF.
To the second question, are all parts of the FCS suite inside the top level of the Applications folder?
You must not rename, move them elsewhere or place them in a sub-folder. The updater will not see them.

Firewire Problems with Final Cut Studio 2

I recently made the leap and purchased a Macbook Pro and FCS2. But I have not been able to capture in Final Cut 6 from my Canon XL2. The capture window tells it is not reading timecode. Now if i use iMovie I can capture just fine, but Final Cut just won't read from the camera. I also purchased an Edirol FA-66 for some ADR and foley work on a project I have, but Soundtrack Pro won't read from it either and just like the Final Cut/iMovie scenario the interface can used thru Garageband with no problem other that latency delays.
Is there some firewire menu in System Setting or something else I am missing? I have used both pieces of gear of G5 setups witht he previous version of FCP with no problem but I am totally lost with the new MacBook Pro and FCS 2...
Please, help me.
MacBook Pro 2.33 Ghz Intel Core Duo 2 Mac OS X (10.4.10) 2 gig ram, FCP Studio 2, XL2 and Edirol FA-66

With the Cannon have you tried the obvious and used the Firewire Basic setup? I assume that FCP6 still uses that .. and are you plugging the Cannon directly into the book's FW port .. not daisy chaining .. that's an issue with Cannons I believe
