Final cut bug, interlacing when adding transitions

Hello
So I have been experiencing a problem in final cut pro 6 when generating a timeline using motion jpeg A and using transitions that all clips end up looking interlaced. The fields in the sequence settings are set to non and all the settings are at high quality. All preferences and settings have been checked a hundred times over. Even soemtimes in the past generating a new sequence and copying your timeline to the new sequence would sometimes resolves some problems.
After weeks of banging my head against the wall I managed to find out that importing quicktimes into final cut would default the field on every quicktime to upper odd, causing this problem. Changing this option to none seemed to fix the problem. In saying this, this is not ideal as if you were working with say 40 quicktimes or more you would have to manually change each field to every quicktime before you start your timeline. Not good.
Has anyone else experienced this problem and if so have you found a better way around it?
Thanks

Same Issue: Added a transition and then beach ball from **** and crash. Also lost two hours of work when it restarted and reverted to the last planned quit.
FCPX is benched until Lion and updates. Don't have time to be a beta tester on what might end up being a hobbyists toy.

Final Cut Pro X crashes when adding transitions, throughout the entire program.

I've had FCP X installed for a few weeks now, and I decided to hold back asking my question and see if anybody else is experiencing the same problems.
I did find one matching problem on the discussions forum, but the user found a solution which I tried, and did it did not work.
Everytime I try to add a very simple transition to my video in Final Cut Pro X, it gives me the spinning colorwheel, hesitates for a few seconds and then crashes.
It only does it with transitions, I can add effects, adjust color, etc. but only when adding transitions does it crash.
I've tried deleting events and original media, I've reimported using optimized media, I've tried both ways of keeping files in original locations and also copying to final cut events folder.
The video I'm using is full 1080p mov files from a Canon 5D Mark II.
It does it in the timeline as well as the secondary timeline.
I've tried the solution that the previous asker did, which was copying the content to another FCP event, and it didn't work for me. Still crashes whether I try to drag the transition to my timeline, use the keyboard shortcut, or double click.
I have a Early 2010 15 inch MBP i5 with 8gb of RAM running newest version of Snow Leopard.
Hope I've provided enough information
Thanks,
-Jon

I shot video on a Panasonic P2 and I'm trying to import the MXF files to Final Cut Pro but when I try to import, the only thing that imports is a blurry image of each clip. There's no audio and no video...how can I import MXF files into Final Cut Pro?

at the end, you say "import preferences", which program are you describing?
So im safer using footage that is remotely being pulled from iphoto...
vs
using footage that is imported into FCP from imovie?
Is there anything i can do in fcp to make this footage more reliable or safer or more stable as i pull remotely from iphoto?
All the footage, and all the libraries to all programs, or on a new pegasus 12tb raid 5 setup fyi.

Right click one of yur clips in the event browser and choose Transcode Media. Make a test project and playthat clip. See whether that solves your lag.

It is just as the message says. Your video card is not compatible.
You can add a compatible graphics card and use FCP X with your mac. I can't suggest which one, but maybe other people on this forum can guide.
And you may also get good suggestions in the Mac Pro forum.

Final Cut Express Quits when exporting using Quick Time conversion to MPEG2

I'm new Mac user and I'm trying to compress a movie from Final Cut Express HD when exporting using Quick Time conversion to MPEG2 format when I do that Final Cut application quits.
and if helps you to answer I have the same problem trying to do the same from iMovie HD and from Adobe Premier 6.5

"exporting using Quick Time conversion to MPEG2 format"
I'm not sure how you can get to that point: I cannot even find MPEG2 in my list of compression types while exporting with QuickTime Conversion... (I have 31 of them, and QT 7 Pro installed).
In any case, if you want to make a DVD and have iDVD installed, you have simply to Export/QuickTime Movie (without conversion): iDVD will take care of compressing your movie for you before burning the DVD.

#44: FCP acting weird - Trash Prefs
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 appropriate version of FCP Rescue at http://www.fcprescue.com and run it.
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.

Recently upgraded from Snow Leopard to Lion then Mavericks. I have Final Cut Express and when I export to Quicktime, and open to play the movie, Quicktime starts to "convert" it? What is this about????

Recently upgraded from Snow Leopard to Lion then Mavericks. I have Final Cut Express and when I export to Quicktime, and open to play the movie, Quicktime starts to "convert" it? What is this about????

My existing movies are all the following types straight from FinalCut
Apple Intermediate Codec, 1920 × 1080, Millions
16-bit Integer (Little Endian), Stereo, 48.000 kHz
This particular movie is 6.66 Gb
The new Quicktime player in OS Mavericks converts these to the following format:
Apple ProRes 422, 1920 x 1080
Linear PCM, 16 bit little-endian signed integer, 2 channels, 48000 Hz
And a movie size of 6.48 Gb
Please, please can someone tell me why?

Final Cut Express installed when I bought my machine will not open, can not find any upgrades

Final Cut Express installed when I bought my machine will not open, can not find any upgrades. I am working on Mac Os10.6.8.
It always worked before.

There are no upgrades to FCE any longer. Apple has discontinued the product. If you need to reinstall the version you have from the original install discs, use this app to uninstall it first: http://www.digitalrebellion.com/fcsremover/

Final Cut wont recognize when i push esc when capturing now.

Final Cut wont recognize when i push esc when capturing now on an uncontrolled device.
help.

I have captured from a VHS player thru a camcorder to FCP, but never experienced a Capture Now not stopping after pressing the ESC key. I did a quick search and found a question similar to yours. The following suggestions are mostly from a response posted by Tony Gay:
1. Trash the FCP preferences. Try Preference Manager for doing that if you don't already have it.
2. Run Disk Utility and select Repair Disk Permissions
3. Check your System Prefs, make sure that your Energy Saver settings are so that the system stays awake and disks do not power down.
4. The FCP preferences will need to be reset. If using Capture Now, check that it is not limited, reset your drives and etc.
5. Check that the codec of the camera/tape match the setting that you are capturing with.
6. Try capturing a short piece using Log and Capture...
7. Try Capture Now.
The person with the problem posted back reporting that after doing the above, ESC was again working with Capture Now.
Good luck.

When i open final cut pro x when it starts loding the projects it shows the spining beach ball and is stuck wat can i do?

when i open final cut pro x when it starts loding the projects it shows the spining beach ball and is stuck wat can i do?

Possible corrupted project or media fies. Here's what I'd suggest.
First trash preferences. If that doesn't work…
Move your Final Cut Projects folder into a folder named Hidden Folder. See if FCP then launches. If it doesn't hide your Final Cut Events folder. Once FCP launches successfuly, create a test event and project.
To track down the problem, successively move load events and projects from hideen to their proper location and open FCP. When and if you get the crash you have hopefully located the problem.
The easiest way to do this is to purchace Event Manager X ($5).
Good luck.

Final Cut Pro crashes when video is added to the timeline.

I have Final Cut Studio 5, and every time I use Final Cut Pro, it crashes when I add video to the timeline.
I meet all the system requirements, have all the updates, have trashed preferences, and have also uninstalled and reinstalled the software.
Everything else in Final Cut Studio works fine. What should I do?

The codec for the sequence is "DV/DVCPRO- NTSC". I converted a .mov file to a DV movie, and Final Cut worked just fine when I put the file into the timeline.
So this solves the problem, but I have one question. Am I going to have to always convert files into this format now? Or is there a way I can import the files without it crashing?
Thank you.

Final Cut, Fields, Interlacing

Imac 20p, Final Cut PRO HD 5.1, canon MVX460 PAL
Ok this is the problem: The footage is interlaced, I capture it with interlaced option in DV codec and in FC options field dominance lower. I edit the sequence with same setting, FC displays the preview perfectly deinterlaced.
I used to export through --->quick time movie and to DV PAL Field dominance NONE, PROGRESSIVE or XVID without field dominance. The output was perfectly progressive.
Yesterday I used for the first time (as a test) USE QT conversion... applied the deinterlace option under SIZE... the output was perfectly progressive
BUT:
Now when I export with normal QT movie option with same setting the output is still interlaced... Strange isn't it?
Any clues?
can someone tell me how to output through FC export (Export -->QT movie) in progressive without appling the deinterlace filter? (I need it cause most of my production is web and computer vision oriented)...
Thank you very very much!

can someone tell me how to output through FC export (Export -->QT movie) in progressive without appling the deinterlace filter?
Sorry, you recorded the footage at 60 fields/second and that's the way it's going to stay. The only way to faux-progressify it is to apply a filter that makes educated guesses as to what the footage would have looked like had you recorded it progressively.
If you are exporting full-quality QuickTime reference movies on which to perform conversions later, can you let your compression software do the "de-interlacing"?
