Fade Out_Not Working..??

I am editing with FCP 6.02, in 720P HDV.
I have not had this problem throughout my whole project. But all of a sudden none of my Fades are working. Even fades to black that I had added before now just cut. I can see the transition image at the end of the clip, but it just doesnt seem to be working.
I have tried restarting FCP and also my computer. But it doesn't seem to have helped.
The only way I can add a fade to black now, is to actually key frame the opacity, or cross dissolve between my clip and a Slug.
Am I missing a setting I may have changed by accident...or is it suggested that I should be using slugs instead of dead space anyways on my timeline?
Any suggestions would be great!
Thanks,
Jesse

The clip was long enough, because all i wanted to do was dissolve to black. Which was just a gap in my timeline. When I would add a cross dissolve in between a clip and a slug the render bar was green, but I could still see the fade. But when I faded to the blank spot in my timeline I couldnt see it until I conformed and rendered it, then it played fine.
I am still confused about why it would have to render to see just a fade to black though.
Thanks for the quick response Mike!
Cheers

  • Flash CS4 Alpha Motion Fade Not Working In flashplayers 10

    Hi,
    I have a basic alpha motion fade which works using my flashplayer but not in flash players less than version 10 (no fade is present its just instantly there). If I change the player I am developing for in my movie settings the fade just does not work.
    Can anyone help with a solution?

    Hey there,
    Could you describe the setup or link a file with the problem?  I can't reproduce the problem with basic fades (obviously they should continue to work when you switch the player).  Is it just in the document you're working on, or all documents you create?
    Thanks,
    Jen.

  • Fade Effect working weird.

    My little app is driven by a TabNavigator with each tab
    showing a different "page" with DataGrids/Form/TabNavs etc. I am
    trying to fade from "page" to "page" and all looks fine except Text
    types on the "page". They don't fade, just abruptly disappear once
    the fadeOut alpha reaches some number. Am I missing something? All
    help is appreciated.

    Or, if you can get direct access to the text objects, you can
    set the
    blendMode of the text to "layer", and then Fade effects will
    work on them
    properly.

  • Cross fades not working in flex mode.

    Hey there,
    i have an audio region in Logic Pro X (latest update) that's using the flex pitch mode. When I want to cross fade it with another region, it just doesn't work. Seems to be a bug or am I wrong?
    Greetings,
    R. Philipp

    Me too. Does the fade tool move your region las if you just had the cursor selected?
    Looks like there are quite a few threads on this topic to check out.

  • Fade not working

    I cannot get fade out at the end of a clip; using the Rt click/Fade/fade Video out or Fade Audio out.
    I've consulted the manual and a search on "Fade" and "Fade in" brings up nothing relative to that menue option; it just talks about transitions.
    How does the option know what end to apply a Fade to?  It seems to be working on the front end of the clip on track 1, but not that back end.  How can I tell if a Fade has been applied to a clip, and how do I remove a Fade?
    I have a couple short clips on track 2 where the Fade; at the end of the clip, seems to be working.
    fyi the Audio/Visual in tracks 1 and 2 of my clips have been unlinked, and the audio has been removed from the clips on track 2. 

    Do you confirm that at this time, your only problem is with the one clip that you have targeted in your screenshot? I want to make sure of that so I am posting a mark up of your screenshot.
    If this is the case,
    Yes, that is the only clip that is refusing to respond to Fade.
    a. Can you add your own Opacity Keyframe at the end of that clip by holding down the Ctrl key of the computer main keyboard and clicking with your mouse cursor on the spot where you want the Opacity keyframe to go?
    Great!  I had no idea, that solves a lot of problems I've had with missing keyframes when I use Fade; which; seems to me, is just very squirrely! Look at some the wierd behaviours I've captured in the collection of screenshots!
    http://www.pixentral.com/show.php?picture=1tydAAiJnrMwOmFi34V6rc5G43z3us0
    To get around them I added transisitons and used the "Adjust" options.
    b. Have you been adding these Fades Video or Audio In and/or Out solely at the Timeline level by right clicking the video clip and selecting Fade followed by the wanted option?
    Yes
    what happens if you highlight the clip, go to Applied Effects Palette/Opacity Panel, expand the Opacity Panel to see its options, and click on the Fade Out there?
    This has been my work around.  When I do that I get the results I desire.  I think you suggestion of using the Ctrl key to put a keyframe in place will also help in working with the squirrely Fade feature.
    Another supportive information might be right clicking the video in its middle if you are indeed right clicking at the extreme right edge of the video for the Fade Out. You can right click the video at its beginning, select Fade Out, and still you will get the Opacity keyframe toward the end of that video.
    That's a good approach, but I'm pretty certain there are no "slivers"  I just went through and snipped specific locations in my sound track, then ran Fade on them; so there was no change for a "sliver".
    Well, I have finished my video and I am very happy with it.  Thanks for your patient support, as usual (-:  I have learned a lot in this effort, but you will; no doubt, be hearing from me again
    Here is the link to my Box; you can see my video there.

  • Fades not working on imported music

    I have just recently bought the iMac and created a 34 minute movie in iMovie. Everything was going great until just recently. I can't tell you why, but I all of the sudden lost the audio for most of the songs I had imported into my movie from ITunes. The green bars were still in my project, but the music wouldn't play back when I played the movie or skimmed over the clips. So, I have started deleting the music tracks and inserting these once again. However, an additional problem has arrived. When I import the music clips, I do get the sound back. However, the fades and audio adjustments do not seem to be working on these songs. In other words, I can insert these again to get the sound back, but I can't seem to add any effects to these through the audio adjustments window (i.e. fading, decreasing/increasing volume, etc.) The only two things I can remember doing that would have impacted the program right before this happened was to upgrade iTunes and choose to "clean up the selection" on my hard drive from the desktop. Does anyone know if either of these two things could have some how broke the links to the songs? If not, anyone have an idea of what happened? Does anyone know how I can get the audio adjustments to work on these songs again? HELP. I don't want to start over.

    Hi, Sachin_925. Since the access to Nokia Music is no longer available through the Nokia Music Player, downloading of songs using this computer (PC) app will not be supported. You can still download and listen to music files here: http://www.mixrad.io/
    Hope this helps.

  • Fades not working

    Hi there, I'm on 8.0.1. In the middle of a session, the fade function stopped working. it still draws in the fades, but doesn't produce any result. I've tried deleting all fade files, but it doesn't fix it.
    Any ideas?
    Cheers.

    forget it. had melodyne running and it overrides any fades you add later. my bad.

  • Audio fade not working in compound clip

    How are you doing? When I have a compound clip of multiple audio files, the fade handle doesn't seem to be affecting the audio like it did before the update.
    Below is an example...

    actually, that audio compound clip is not inside the compound clip. What you are seeing is multiple audio files compounded together. When I do this, the fade does not work. I can automate the level line, but the fade handles are ineffective.

  • Appear/Fade not working in IE

    Please help.  I'm using Dreamweaver CS4 and have used the appear/fade effect to fade-in a div of text links.  The links fade-in fine in all browsers, except IE, where they don't come through all the way and look blotchy.  Is there an IE workaround for this problem?  Thanks

    Hi,
    I'm not sure why the slide effect is not working but the blotchy text problem can be fixed by adding to the class or id the font-family: "MS Sans Serif"; in your css

  • Text fade not working when published

    I am doing a text fade the same way I always have (or so it
    seems) and it looks fine when I scrub the play head or play in the
    program but when I test the movie the fade doesn't work. I've done
    and redone this and still the same results. I have the text as a
    graphic symbol, set alpha in one frame to 0 and to 100 in the other
    frame, did the motion tween. I am guessing the problem lies in some
    sort of publish setting but I have compared the settings between
    this project and one that works fine and can't seem to find any
    differences. Ideas?

    Is the text static?

  • Slide fade not working in Captivate 5

    Hello all -
    The project I'm creating requires fading in on slides. I've set the slides to fade, and when viewed the slides do not in fact fade. I've heard of a workaround that by accessing the dropdown menu under Transition and selecting another fade (which one is not relevant to the trick) that when fade is re-selected the fade behaves as expected. This hasn't been useful in this case. I've also cleared the cache thinking perhaps that would be helpful. This trick was also not a resolution.
    Thanks in advance to anyone with a suggestion to resolve this issue!

  • CROSS FADE DOESNT WORK.

    I hve a playlist for which i want no seconds at all between songs. I select Edit- preferences - and then whether i select 1 or 12 seconds fade....it stil has a gap between songs...thx

    You could search this forum for "handles" for ad nauseum explanations.
    My favorite is the drunk driving analogy. You are stopped by the police. you are asked to close your eyes, extend your arms and touch your fingertips together. If you hit tip to tip dead on you cannot dissolve. If you overlap by a knuckle or two, that's the limit of your possible transition.

  • Gnome-screensaver Fade Stopped Working

    Hey guys,
    Just did a pacman upgrade (after about two months without net access!), and one of the funny things I've noticed is that gnome-screensaver no longer fades to black when locking the screen. After a couple of seconds it just goes black. I think it's the same issue that's been listed for Ubuntu here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+sour … bug/522806, however on that bug report it says the problem was fixed in version 2.29.90-0ubuntu2 (presumably an Ubuntu-specific fix), while I'm running 2.30.0-1. I am running nVidia drivers, so it fits in with the bug description though.
    Has anyone else come across this problem? Is there a fix for it yet that we can use?
    'Shady

    Ooops, wrong link to AUR, my bad
    As gnome-screensaver is still running after the update,
    it must be restarted so that new program is loaded in memory;
    a "killall gnome-screensaver && gnome-screensaver" do the job, no need to restart X or the system
    The xscreensaver dependency is not weird, you need it to build the package,
    it is only an optional dependency for the binary/pre-built package.
    You can remove xscreensaver after yaourt.

  • Fade In/Out not working

    Hi
    Applying Fade Ins or Outs seemed to have stopped working. Using either the crossfade tool or specifying them in the Inspector, they appear graphically correct, but audio-wise, no fade.
    Crossfading between regions is working fine.
    Using ordinary uncompressed mono aifs.
    Haven't used Logic for a couple of months, so wondered if something has broken/changed in the last couple of minor updates.
    Are there any factors, other than audio file-type, that will prevent fades from working?
    Using Logic 9.1.3 on OS 10.6.5
    Thanks for any feedback

    Hi
    I'd do a boatload of simpler troubleshooting before I did a complete re-install!
    Try these steps when you have some downtime:
    1) Only a specific project affected, or same for any (including starting from a default blank template rather than any user-made one)?
    Specific project.... corrupted or other problem?, any project... "Logic" problem?
    2)
    Login as a different user (if need be make a new user account with 'Admin' access). Repeat test 1
    If the problem goes away, it's likely Logic Preferences in the original user account are corrupted.
    (Note there could be other reasons.... ! )
