Final Cut Pro X Missing Proxy?

I am making a basketball highlight video. After I finished cutting everything else out just so there are clips of the specific basketball player whose video this is, I watched the clips. The clips are now jumpy. I get this message: "Video frames were dropped during playback. You may be able to get better performance by doing the following: Use proxy playback by changing the media setting to proxy in the Viewer Options pop-up menu."
But when I do select 'Proxy,' all my clips are gone and replaced by "Missing Proxy!"
How can I fix this? I don't want my videos to be jumpy!!!! Thanks

Sounds like you never generated Proxies.
Look in the Clip Inspector under Info:
You can generates Proxies there, or choose Transcode form the File Menu:

  • Final cut pro audio missing from clip once i move it from viewer to canvass?

    hi i'm new to final cut pro 7, when i play my video in the viewer i can hear the audio loud and clear however when i'm move it to the canvass and play it in the time line the audio is gone? can someone pls help me

    Probably best to ask this questio in the FINAL CUT STUDIO forum and not the FCPX forum, BUT -- since you're here...
    Make sure that the AUDIO PATCHES are connected to the timeline... those are the pluggy arrow type looking things on the left side of the timeline.  With the clip in the viewer window add it into the timeline.  Audio should come with it.
    Or - do you already SEE the audio tracks on the timeline and you just can't hear it?  (if that's the case, try opening the audio mixer and making sure the master volume is up.
    Good luck,

  • Final Cut Pro 10.1 "MISSING PROXY"???

    Whenever I import my video to Final Cut Pro 10.1 it immediately shows a red image and says "MISSING PROXY". I can't figure out what to do. HELP!

    This means that you have "proxy media" selected in the viewer, but you are not creating proxy media for the clips you are importing.
    Either create the proxy media (control-click on any  clips and Transcode Media...) or, probably better, change from proxy media to original/optimized media:

  • All of my titles, themes and generators seem to be completely missing from Final cut pro x. Do you know how to get them back?

    All of my titles, themes and generators seem to be completely missing from Final cut pro x. Do you know how to get them back?

    Do you mean that when you click the title browser, for example, nothing is there?
    Do you at least see several categories listed in the effects browser?
    First make sure that you have nothing typed into the search box (not even spaces).
    If you still see nothing, try this in order:
    1) Window->Revert to Original Layout
    2) Quit FCP X, delete preferences using Preference Manager (a free download from Digital Rebellion)
    3) Download FCS Remover, and use it to completely remove FCP X. This will NOT delete your content, just the application.
    4) Reinstall FCP X from the Mac App Store: log in with the same Apple ID that you used to buy FCP X, click on "Purchases", locate FCP X and click Install.

  • Final Cut Pro X Image Sequence Export missing frames per second option?

    I am using the trial version of Final Cut Pro X.  I can export an image sequence but it will only allow me to do so at 30 frames per second -every single frame! 
    So a 10 min movie takes half an hour to export 20,000+ frames that no one on earth has time to look thru.
    In my old Final Cut Express I was able to choose 1 or 2 frames per second, which was just right.
    What am I missing?
    Do I need to buy Quicktime Pro or Compressor to allow me to export image sequences without exporting every frame?
    Why would Apple even have an image sequence export if it only allows you to export every frame, or it that only in the trial version?
    Thank you

    I found a free option for you, if you don't already have Compressor 4.
    In FCPX create your movie. Then SHARE as a Master File.
    Get MPEG Streamclip, which is a free app available here.
    http://www.squared5.com/svideo/mpeg-streamclip-mac.html
    Drag your Master File into MPEG Streamclip.
    In MPEG Streamclip, select FILE/EXPORT TO OTHER FORMATS.
    In FORMAT: choose IMAGE SEQUENCE
    In OPTIONS, choose your frame rate.

  • Output Device Missing in Final Cut Pro while burning

    Our Output device in dropdown box is now missing all of a sudden. I wanted to know how to manually resolve this issue, if anyone could assist? We were burning a DVD from Final Cut Pro 10.0.09. and we got an error message:
    Not sure what happened during burning. We tried inserting a single layer disc instead of a dual layer and now we cannot view our output device in dropdown when we go to share it.  Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

    Do you mean your optical drive is not listed? What is listed…for example, Hard Drive?
    What are your system specs?

  • My final cut pro 6, is missing some files. because of mac keeper. I think its atom strand.HD. what to do, and how to make it work again?????

    I got mac keeper to clean up some files, and now I cant open Final cut pro 6. because of missing files. it is loading, at Atom strand.HD file, before it says that the program suddenly shutted down. the atom strand.HD is a file, that is connected to motion. if I put motion in the garbage can, then final cut works, but if I take motion out of the garbage can again, then it doesn`t. arrrrr. shall I re install final cut or motion. or is there a better way to make it work, again????? !!!!

    Well, best bet would be to reinstall FCP.  I'd use the FCS REMOVER from digitalrebellion.com (free) to uninstall the app first, then reinstall from the DVD.

  • Issue Launching Final Cut Pro - Missing Disks Window....?

    Can anyone help me with this issue? Just loaded FCP on my Intel Mac, and I keep getting this pop up window named " Missing Disks" that is telling me "To preserve the integrity of the data used by FCP HD, it is necessary to ensure the existence of the following path(s):
    '36th Chamber/Users/Macluva99/Documents/Final Cut Pro Documents' is missing.
    And it gives me the option to (1) Quit the program (2) Check again or...(3) Reset scratch Disk (then another window pops up and I have no clue what to do with.
    Any ideas...?
    Thanks,
    [email protected]

    This is actually version 4.5 for FCP HD, but I had loaded it on this machine a month ago and it was working and it wasn't giving me this pop up window/issue. That was when I was still on Tiger I believe. Would it be because im also on Leopard now as well?

    The floppy drive is a horrible analogy. One could still use the external floppy drive, as you say. But what your analogy is ignoring is that at some point that floppy drive option will disappear as a later OS rolls out and the floppy drive is no longer supported, however the other people I am innvolved in working on a project need me to have a floppy drive to pass along my work.
    Yes, I can use FCP7 as I need to for the time being (and will do so) but you can bet that won't be the case for all that long. Eventually the ability to use FCP7 will decline as OS changes etc. In the meantime you can bet that the broadcast and film world is not going to change their delivery specs and requirements simply because Apple decided to change FCP to X and ditch the genuinely PRO features of FCP7. There are too many Avids and other options for them to decide that they will change just because a portion of the professional editing world has been forced into Apple's way doing things. They will simplu say, "Get an Avid . . ."
    So the floppy analogy not so accurate.

  • I have just updated to Final Cut Pro 10.1.4 - I have updated Projects and Events on my external hard drives (off the File menu). It's says under several project 'missing file' - but they were all there working fine before I updated.

    I have just updated to Final Cut Pro 10.1.4 - I have updated Projects and Events on my external hard drives (off the File menu). It's says under several projects 'missing file' - but they were all there working fine before I updated. I am working off 2 external drives - not sure if that would make a difference.

    After the update each seperate connected drive should now have a seperate Library.
    The older Projects and Events folders would have to be at the top level of those drives go be seen and updated.
    Were all the necessary Projects and Events in the corrrct place before updating?

  • Missing all export options in Adobe Premiere (can only export to final cut pro xml). Where are the options?

    Missing all export options in Adobe Premiere (can only export to final cut pro xml). Where are the options?

    There never was a trial version of FCP7. The application was only ever sold as part of the Final Cut Studio suite of applications. You might still find copies on eBay.

  • Software Updates Missing and File Not opening in Final Cut Pro

    Hi Experts,
    I am having trouble with Final Cut Pro. Here goes:-
    I tried to load up a FCP file called "Overview" in Lesson One of the Apple Pro Training Series book called "Color". The file would not open and I got the following message alert in FCP:
    "File's format is too new for this version of the application".
    I am running FCP 6.0.1 and so went to check for software updates. I could not find any listed for FCP. I did a quick internet search to make sure and found there were indeed updates to 6.0.1.
    So I guess I have 2 problems:
    1. Why won't a file from a book that was published before I bought FCP work on my app?
    2. Why can't I see updates for FCP in the Software Update application?
    I am mega stuck with this. I have read of similar problems to mine on the internet but have found no solution. I hope that you will be able to help me out.
    Thank you all,
    Bob

    Hi Nick!
    Thanks for your reply. I feel kinda silly now but I have been continuously checking Software Update for 24hrs and I just got a new addition to the list which was called "Pro Applications Update 2008-05".
    Seeing something new, I installed it and it upgraded my Final Cut Applications including FCP to version 6.0.5.
    The file then opened.
    I am truly sorry to have taken your time up. As when I posted last time Nick, you were very prompt and helpful.
    All the best,
    This problem is solved for me and I hope all the other people having this problem find this update as luckily as I just did.

  • Final Cut Pro X - Resource Drives Missing

    Final Cut pro X is unable to simultaneously access multiple mounted Firewire 800 drives in a chain...  While internal drives are always accessible...
    http://youtu.be/MNCfTsxJUcw
    Any ideas, reasons, and/or solutions are appreciated...

         On any of those 5 drives you tested Tom did you by any chance have an EXACT duplicate event folder?  Because in my case FCPx will display exact copys of PROJECTS on two drives but it will NEVER display two exact copys of EVENT folders.
        If I unmount a drive it will show the events on the remaining drive.  If I unmount  the drive FCPx just fininshed using (and finding the event folder) and remount the second drive FCPx will then see the event folder and happily use that data.  FCPx will NEVER display both event folders if they are both mounted.
         If it was a problem with the Firewire bridge as you claim then I would not expect FCPx (or for that matter even OSx) to be able to see both project folders at the same time.
    Screen capture shows two drives.  Finder can display both Project AND Event folders.  FCPx can display both project folders but will only display ONE drives Event folder at a time  .....  ???

  • Final cut pro missing files

    Hi. I'm new to this. I recently 'killed' my reconditioned mac and was lucky that the hard drive still had my final cut pro project intact.
    I bought a brand new OS X and was advised to use a 'caddy' to plug the old hard drive into the new computer. I thought I had transferred all the files from the FCP project, but clearly it hadn't transferred everything. I am quite afraid I'll lose everything or hurt the original project but I desperately want to be independant of the hard drive and just use my new computer. How do I make sure all the relevant files are on my lap top?
    Thanks in advance for any advice. (Its my first go at FCP and I am not very computer literate!

    You need Final Cut Projects, Final Cut Events, and if applicable, Final Cut Camera Archives.  If you are using these only on your internal system drive, they should go in your Movies folder.  But it is strongly advisable to put them on an external Firewire 800 drive instead.  If you go with the external route, then the above mentioned folders should go at the root (top) level of your external drive as opposed to in the Movies folder.  The system will run faster and your videos will render quicker.  Plus you will typically have a lot more free space to work with on an external drive than on the smaller ones that usually come with the systems.  With the render files that FCP X produces you are defintely going to need the extra space. Then you should simply make a backup of the external from time to time with yet another external.  This will take away most of your worries   Best wishes.

  • Final Cut Pro System support folder missing

    I downloaded a cool plug in for a aged film look but I cannot find the "Final Cut Pro System support folder" in which i have to place this plug-in.
    Any Ideas?

    *Hard Drive/Library/Application Support/Final Cut Pro System Support.*
    Your plugin goes into the Plugins folder.
    You will need to authenticate with an Admin password to modify the folder.
