FCP Crashes When Rendering or Converting Project

I have FCP Studio Academic. I have finished a project that is 2 hours and 20 minutes plus. I put several sequences together that are quite lengthy. I couldn't get it to convert using converter, or quicktime, because FCP would crash in converter shortly after it began. In quicktime, it would consistently reach the 80% mark and then crash. So I went to the 115th minute, and nothing was visibly distinct that would make me think that it was a problem.
So I deleted all the preferences stuff that the website tells you to, and nothing happened. I then deleted all of the rendered stuff, so I would have to re-render everything. Lo and behold, I couldn't render the individual sequences by themselves. I can't seem to get this to work, can anyone help??

In addition to the previous post,
subdividing the sequences to render did work. However, I tried to go back to the master sequence and render it, and I got the same result: FCP crashed.
I know that I can go through and subdivide all the sequences to render them and that will work to get them rendered, but I need to convert the project into a file so that I can put it on a disk.
Any Suggestions?

  • FCP Crashes when rendering or adjusting attributes of clip

    For some reason Final Cut Pro 5 (latest version) crashes whenever I render a specific project. I tried doing a "save as.." and making a new fcp file, but the problem still persists in the project. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
    PS: I tried FCP rescue and OnyX, with no luck.

    hmm..I don't see why ram should cause Final Cut Pro to crash. When I import one of the .psd files in my project into new project if I double click on it, then FCP crashes! Here is a link to the project file:
    http://salsunproductions.sitesled.com/video/ACMVIDEO/ACMPROMO4-fc3.fcp
    I realize that you won't have the media files or some of the plug-ins (TMTS), but I would appreciated it if someone could see if it crashes for you. (highlight everything and under render selection check all of the colors, then hit command + r to begin rendering everything).

  • FCP Crashes when rendering long clips

    When I have a 5-10 min project and want to render the whole thing my FCp will crash or stop rendering and give me an out of memory error. Is there something on Macs I need to do to get rid of this issue? Is there any type of maintenance I need to do on macs to clear make the app run better/faster?

    50GB out of how much total? You should leave 15% free on that drive to maximize performance.

    Shane's Stock Answer #44: FCP acting weird or unusual. Just not like is normally should
    If the program was working fine, and now isn't, or just isn't working the way it should, the first things to do are:
    1) Trash your FCP preferences. Download the Preference Manager from Digital Rebellion: http://www.digitalrebellion.com/pref_man.htm
    http://www.kenstone.net/fcphomepage/trashing_fcpprefs.html
    2) Open the Disk Utility and Repair Permissions.
    3) Shut down for 10 min. Go for a quick walk around the block and get SOME exercise today. Come back, turn on the computer and see how things are.
    4) (optional) Do the Hokey Pokey and turn your self about. Results may vary.

  • FCP 5.0.4 freezes when rendering or converting to quicktime on my macbookpr

    FCP 5.0.4 freezes when rendering or converting to quicktime on my intel macbookpro. It really is very bothersome because I can't complete projects without rendering. I recently was just told that we should not download any updates at all for any appliction unless it is absolutely neccessary. Is there any truth to this. Would I be better off doing a complete erase and install to get rid of all updates that I have installed. My mac book is a 2.4 ghz with 2 gigs of ram, 200 gb hd, and 512 of vram. Help! My dead line is approaching.

    What you've heard about Academic versions is correct. They are not upgradable.
    If you want to run a version of FCP that is compatible, you have two options.
    1. purchase a used PPC computer (G4/G5) and run your version of FCP 5 on it.
    or
    2. purchase a version of FCP designed to work on intel processors (v5.1 or higher).
    #2 can be satisfied by purchasing a used version of 5.1 (full retail install) on ebay. Alternatively, if you qualify for academic pricing, FCS3 can be had for around $900 rather than the $1300 for the retail version.
    On another subject, the MacBook is hardly the ideal editing platform no matter what version of FCP you are running ...

  • Speed Grade Crashes when rendering

    SpeedGrade crashes on me when I try to render graded footage to an h.264 file.  I have tried both mts footage from the canon xh-a1 that has been converted to quicktime as well as footage straight out of the 5D Mark 2.  I can grade the footage, but every time I try to render the footage I get, 100% render completion and then SpeedGrade crashes.  Also no file is ever created from the output. Very Frustrating.  Any thoughts on what could be the problem.
    Thanks

    I have been using the English version and It crashes all the same.

    Thank you for sending the crash report. This is a known issue and only affects Italian builds. We have isolated this and working on a fix. Please stay tuned and use an English version of SpeedGrade in the meantime. Thanks

  • My new iMac with FCPX crashes when rendering complex templates and crashes when exporting with Motion 5

    My new iMac with FCPX crashes when rendering complex templates and crashes when exporting with Motion 5
    Using Motion 5.0.6 and Final Cut Pro X 10.0.7 on New iMac (December 2012)  Mountain Lion,
    Intel Core i7 quad-core a 3,4GHz, Turbo Boost fino a 3,9GHz

    During the rendering of complex FCPX mac crashes and I have to force a restart.
    I also happens when I try to export movies with Motion 5.
    Does anyone have the same problem with my new iMac?

    Problems such as yours are sometimes caused by files that should belong to you but are locked or have wrong permissions. This procedure will check for such files. It makes no changes and therefore will not, in itself, solve your problem.
    First, empty the Trash.
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below to select it, then drag or copy it — do not type — into the Terminal window:
    find . $TMPDIR.. \( -flags +sappnd,schg,uappnd,uchg -o ! -user $UID -o ! -perm -600 -o -acl \) 2> /dev/null | wc -l
    Press return. The command may take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear.
    The output of this command, on a line directly below what you entered, will be a number such as "35." Please post it in a reply.

  • After Effects crashes when rendering to H264

    Hi,
    On one of my computers, After Effects Crashes when rendering to H264. It always chrashes when doing the last frame of a clip. I think its when muxxing the m4a and the m4v together...
    Does anyone have a solution? maybe there is some odd codec trash going on?
    Thanks in advance!

    10.Rick Gerard,

    Report
    In every version of AE that has been capable of exporting h.264 the quality has been significantly lower than exporting with an app that gives you the option of multi-pass rendering. This has always been true for MPEG codecs that use inter frame (temporal) compression. You just can't get the same quality without multi pass compression. This goes back to the first use of MPEG streams.
    AE CS6 may have H.264 encoding broken internally, but any pro has never used AE to render highly compressed delivery codecs because AE was never designed to be the right tool for the job.
