Final Cut pro x is rendering for hours? whats wrong?
I am not sure what is going on...
It just keeps on rendering for hours and it is a mess...
Help?
Get a copy of 10.0.3 that you thoughtfully stored away previously or look in Time Machine.
Simply replace 10.0.3 with it.
Trashing preferences might be a good idea too.
Note that you will not be able to work on any projects updated to 10.0.3

Hi. Does anyone know what video editing software is compatible with my MacBook - version 10.6.3? I am looking to edit films and already have Final Cut Pro, but am looking for something a little more basic and easier to use. Thanks. Vicki
Hi Cereskit
Thanks again for the message. I've done the updates and have the App Store on my desktop. I went into it and searched for imovie but couldn't find the basic imovie, which I presume is what I'd need for editing?, rather than imovie 11 for £10.49, which is for making trailers, it seems. Also, were you saying that imovie would be free?

i have the current Mac Pro the entry level with the default configuration and i feel lack of performance when applying after effects on my videos using final cut pro and also rendering a video takes long time ? what upgrades do you guys suggest i could do on my Mac Pro ?
256GB SSD it shipped with will run low and one of the things to watch.
Default memory is 12GB also something to think about.

Is the final cut pro application too large for my mac book pro laptop? Should I install it on a hard drive?
4 GB hard drive!?! It's a memory size not hard drive size Your hard drive is much bigger than 4 GB . If you have 2011 model then hard drive size is 500GB or 750 GB HDD. You can install final cut pro and many other programs .

Final Cut Pro x and Compressor 992 hour to process
I edited a 1 hour-40 minute video, on Final Cut Pro X and processed using Apple's Compressor.
I have tried different Operating Systems (Mavericks and Mountain Lion) on two different Mac Computers.
IMac 2.8 Mhz and Mac Book Pro (both 2008)
It has been transcoding to create video to run on Apple Devices, for over 6 days now, and it shows that it will take 992 hours to process.
The same video, some months back, with Mountain Lion, took a couple of days to process.
Question: Why is it taking this long now?
I have tried to get a DVD done, different types of output; none have succeeded.
I guess Apple, has made adjustments to their Operating Systems, to basically render this computers inoperable, forcing customers to buy their latest Mac models.
Yes, I went to the "Genius Bar" at Apple (twice), first they told me to increase the memory, which I did; even though months ago I had videos processed without extra memory.
The second time at the "Genius Bar", after I had installed extra memory, they had nothing to say, except that "they had a friend" with the same problem, but after "the friend" bought a new Mac, the problem was resolved.
I called Apple support and was told to "reset PRAM", which I did. Still the problem persists.
Any ideas?
http://www.flickr.com/photos/brankoab/12089286396/You don't mention how much RAM is in your machines, nor what are the versions of FCP X and the OS.
These can make a lot of difference. If you are trying a long export with very little RAM (and I must say 4GB is *very little* RAM), then it can get bogged down tremendously. Do you have at least 8GB?
How much free RAM is reported in Activity Monitor?
Are you using Mavericks or a previous version of the OS? Mountain Lion was notorious for slowing down to a crawl in such circumstances.
Give us more info, so we can better help.
In the meantime, you might consider exporting just a small section of the movie (use I and O to mark an in and an out point in the timeline) and see how fast it goes; keep Activity Monitor open while you are doing it. -
Why is updating final cut pro such a nightmare for all users?
How come I cant get back to final cut pro 6.0.3? Or 6.0.4? These were a stable version of FCP for MY SET UP..... I can not find how to get back to these versions. All that I see is pro updates, or updates using apples software update, that will just get me back to 6.0.6, a version of FCP that my plugins dont work under.
Is there a secret place where 6.0.3 lives that I dont know about? I have seen reports saying there is no more way to get back to 6.0.3 or certain levels of FCP.
This truly is a nightmare. This is coming from a 10 year user of logic, a program that was bought from a german company by apple, and intergrated into their own product line of apple products. With logic, I can go back to 7.2.3 if I wanted to, or logic 8.0.2, if thats the set up that works for me with my plugins. Is this even possible?When item(s) are available in Software Update, go to the menu bar > Update.
Activate the option *Install and Keep Package*
The individual Installers will be saved at: Hard Drive/Library/Packages.
Now, stop cherry picking the advice you have been given over the past few days. Copy the contents of your User space to an external drive. Bite the bullet and reinstall Mac OS X. Run Software Update and accept everything. Repair Permissions and restart the computer when it is done.
Install Final Cut Studio. Run Software Update and accept everything. Repair Permissions again and restart the computer when it is done.
Install other software from their original discs or download them again.
Copy the contents of the folders from the old User space back to the folders with the same name in your new User space. *Do not copy the contents of the Library folder*.
When you have done that, post back and I will help you retrieve your email and third party fonts. -
Final Cut Pro 7 keyboard shortcuts for Adobe Premiere Pro CS5 for Windows
Attached is the file that contains the Final Cut Pro 7 keyboard shortcut set for Adobe Premiere Pro CS5 for Windows.
This file was mistakenly left out of the Premiere Pro CS5 installer, so people who tried to switch to this keyboard shortcut set were unable to do so.
Unzip the file and then install the .kys file by copying it here:
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Premiere Pro CS5\Keyboard Shortcuts\en_US
(where C:\ may be replaced by the a different volume if you installed somewhere other than the C drive, and en_US may be replaced by another locale ID)
This file was included in the Premiere Pro CS5.5 installer, so manually installing this file is only necessary for Premiere Pro CS5.
For information about keyboard shortcuts, including how to customize them, see this page:
"Keyboard shortcuts"By the way, Mac users don't need to update this file, it's for Windows users only.

Does Final Cut Pro offer native support for DVCPRO HD 720p25?
I would like to online a DVCPRO HD project on a Final Cut Pro suite with an HD i/o card, but I just wanted to make sure that the latest Final Cut Pro offers support for DVCPRO HD 720p25 before making the jump.
Thanks for the info. I will check if the production company's Blackmagic HD card supports DVCPRO 720p25.
Just for your information, we have offline edited on an Avid MC Adrenaline. We have had the biggest problems ingesting the media since we shot on a Varicam at 25p and the Avid wouldn't accept firewire. So we ended up cutting in 30i. Which now ***** since the online is a pain.
It seems like we will export an EDL per video track from the Avid, then hopefully find a company or a person who will convert our 30fps EDL to 25fps via the software EDLMax24. Then import the EDLs into a Final Cut Pro HD suite with a Blackmagic HD card via HD-SDI, and online from the HD AJ-1400 deck. And hopefully that will work.
The only outstanding thing is to find someone with EDLMAX24 since it retails at 600USD. -

I have been editing in final cut express and now that I'm working in Pro X I would like to transfer my b-roll footage from FCX to Pro X. I read that there is an app. that you can buy that does this for Final Cut Pro 7, is this possible with Final Cut Express?
Any media used in FCE can be used in FCP. No third party software is required.
You cannot take an FCE project to FCP. 7toX will not help as FCE has no XML export. -
My final cut pro software is acting up!!! Every time I try to open a project it says "general error" and the timeline doesn't even show up. What do I ahve to do to fix this?
Has it ever worked? What version are you using? Generally the overwhelming suggestion for problems like this are to remove the preferences.

Will Final Cut Pro 7 be updated for retina capabilities like X?
I'm getting the retina Macbook Pro and I was wondering if they were going to upgrade FCP7 for retina capability just as they did X. I like 7 a lot better than X. Do you guys know?
I like it. I use it. It's still my favorite NLE.
But Apple is done with FCP 7. There will be no update for it...not even for Retina displays. It is done. -
Final Cut Pro similar plug-ins for iMovie?
I'd like some more functions for my current movie editing software (iMoive '09), are there any plug-ins for imovie that have FCP features? Features like multicam, screen on screen, split screen , green screen, after effects, hd camera support, etc....
I would just buy FCPX (maybe in the future, but not now) but I don't want to pay $300 + tax for an app with physical disk and packaging that I end up not liking, and I also don't have a credit card for the Mac App Store version. I would try torrenting it but I've heard some rumors of it crashing the whole computer, phising and what not. I'd rather take my chances with iMovie plug-ins than a pirated copy of FCPX.
I wish there was a cheaper version like how Autodesk does their whole express and pro versions (Sketchbook Express/Pro, AutoCad Express/Pro), I am aware that at one point there was a FCP Express that's now discontinued....burningottsel wrote:

I appreciate that you don't have a credit card to use on the Mac App Store, but iMovie '11 is available for the paltry sum of US$14.99 - this latest version has some of the effects you are seeking, such as Picture in Picture, Side by Side and Green Screen. iMovie '09 may also have some of these features (I can't recall, as I've been using iMovie '11 for some time now).
Both iMovie '09 and '11 support HD cameras and a range of formats. If a format is not supported, it is relatively easy to convert clips to a suitable editing format for iMovie.
In Australia, cards (such as Visa) are available for a nominal value from the local supermarket. These can be safely used for internet purchases, given their specific value. So, you purchase a card for pretty much the exact value you require, make your purchase then destroy the card. I guess a similar thing is available in the US and other countries. That may be a good option for you if you wish to purchase apps from the Mac App Store.

Exporting Final Cut Pro movie onto CD for use on PC
I am having trouble exporting my edits onto CD so I can then take it off the CD and use it on my PC in a Powerpoint presentation. I have tried using Quicktime, Sorenson 3 and AVI. I then open the disc on my PC and it's all in separate files. I would appreciate some advice if anyone has a solution.
We do this quite a bit. As suggested, use mpeg1 (or wmv, we use mpeg1).
Don't try to make the resolution or the bit rate too high. How high depends on the performance of the actual system to be used so test it on the actual presentation machine.
Make sure you copy the files from the CD to the presentation machine hard disk. You can link the file to any folder or disk on the presentation machine, but it needs to have higher performance than you get out of some (particularly laptop) CD drives.
If you can't test it on the actual machine be conservative and test on the slowest machine you can get your hands on.
Make sure you instruct the client on copying the files to the hard disk. Remember that people will generally accept slightly smaller or softer images more readily than a sequence that jumps or skips frames.
Good Luck!
