P2 clips viewed fine in bin, needs render in timeline

We're running FCP 5.1.4 and are trying out the AG-HPX500. The clips are imported just fine and I can play the clips in the bin on my monitor.
But when I drag the clips to the timeline, they are red striped.
We have set the Timeline to DVPAL anamorphic. The clips are recorded in 576i with DVCPro50.
The computer is an Mac G4 Dual. I think that there might be a setting for the timeline - normally we capture Betacam SP using Apple FireWire PAL.
But I can't figure out what timeline setting needs to be changed?

Niklas,
Your sequence settings must match your clip settings. If you shot at DVCPro50 then your timeline needs to be DVCPro50. The simplest way to do this is to choose the DVCPro50 Easy Setup. If you don't know what an Easy Setup is then it's time to crack open those manuals.

Can not see all the clips in large Icon view in my bin

I arranged my clips in a bin in large Icon view but i can not see all the clips in the bin while in that mode. I see the clips when in list mode or when i drag them out of the bin into the main bin. As soon I drag them back in large icon view bin they do not show up, when going back in list view they are there.
Any idea
Also my daughter accidently pulled the electrical plug, which turned my external hard drive off. So the media was off line. I hit reconnect the clip but the clip does not show as connected in the bin it keeps the Media offline icon but putting the clip in the viewer or time line it plays it. So the clip is reconnected
hope anybody can help with those two issues thanks

Nick
thanks for your message it helped to show the clips. Here how I solved it. I put the clips i could not see in large Icon view, to the Project folder. Even in the project folder I was only seeing the clips with Thumbnail in list view. When i hit large Icon view the clips disappeared, and they could not have been lower down as i only have about 5 folders in the project. I then clicked arrange the clip by name and they showed up again. Like that i dragged the clip back in to its bin and it showed up. The reason for going back and forth I arranged the clips manually in the bin before and when hitting arrange by name it spread them to far apart and put the clips not in a sequence I liked.
for the second part I followed Neil's suggestion it worked.

I have a brochure I need to print. When viewed on screen it is pixelated, however when I change to presentation view it is fine. I need to print on presentation view. How do I do this?

Sounds to me more like you have the Display Performance set on Typical rather than High Quality Display. Unless there is a problem with a missing or out-of-date link, the display in ID has nothing to do with output quality -- all of the image data is used for output.

Video needs render

using fcp 4.5/hd i have captured hdv material by downconverting it during capture and using letterbox... it plays fine in the viewer window... when i make an edit to the timeline it tells me the video needs render, and would take a long time for a single clip... i'm guessing the sequence settings are wrong....
what should they be?
thanks

The sequence settings much match. If you select the proper easy setup then the next seq you make will match the Easy Setup. If that matches you settings you are good.
Here's a quick hack to always get those right.

16 X 9 TIMELINE VS CLIP VIEWER ASPECT RATIO

I can't seem to find out why I am able to get a full screen image when I am viewing a clip using the clip viewer and not from the timeline for 16 x 9 formats. The timeline seems to scale the image down at least to 80%. Is there something I need to adjust in the Timeline settings? If I select anamorphic the image is stretched to the edges but not the top. My clip were recorded 16 x 9 and imported as such.
Would appreciate any help.

Thanks for the quick response. I found out that something was messed up with the sequence. When starting fresh and selecting anamorphic without anything in the timeline it works just fine. Thanks anyway.

Force rendering of sequence that does not need render

I'm having a sequence where I'm applying Timecode Reader.
When playing it plays fine on computer screen and does not need any render.
I'm using the plugin WMV Studio HD from Flip4Mac. That works fine, but when I export the sequence using the plugin, the resulting .wmv is a clip that says "Unrendered". Fair enough, so how do I force FCP to actually render the timeline prior to exporting to .wmv?
One way is to create a self-contained QT file and then import that into a new sequence and export to .wmv, but it takes time and disk space.

Look at your menu Sequence/Render All and Sequence/Render Selection settings and make sure all the options are checked. Then type opt-r or select everything and type cmd-r...
make sense?

PHOTOS FROM IPHOTO WILL NOT IMPORT INTO CLIP VIEWER WHERE MOVIE IS CREATED

ok...please answer this question...i NEED it to be answered!!!!! When I try to put the Ken burns effect on a photo and then import it into the clip viewer, it will NOT let me!!!! Please H~E~L~P ME!!!!!!!!!
HELP ME!!!!!

Welcome to discussions!
You have not told us enough information to H~E~L~P you.
We need to know everything about your Mac, hard drive space (look at mine below). Go to "My Settings" at the right of this screen and fill out that information please.
In the meantime, i'll throw a couple of ideas your way:
If you are you trying to edit a previously imported image rendered by the Ken Burns Effect, there's an iMovie bug that prevents us from updating the clip when we empty the iMovie trash.

Themes - Unable to drag or apply theme elements to clip viewer

Why does a theme dissapear immediately after dropping into the clip viewer?
After editing movie (14 chapter markers) and selecting "Reflection - Black" , theme, element "Open", 3 clips were placed in the "drop zone"and title was typed. The result was stunning, but hitting the "apply" button would place the rendered clip at the end of the movie for a few milliseconds and then disappear. Same thing with theme element "Chapter". Choosing the CHECKMARK or dragging the element directly to the clip viewer also failed to keep the clip there. The clip plays flawlessly in the preview screen; just can't add it to the movie. External firewire hard disk has over 137GB of freespace left. Any ideas?

How is your external hard drive formatted? It needs to be formatted for Mac
( Mac OS Extended.) Try using Apple's Disk Utility to format the drive. However, when you reformat you will lose all files on the external drive in the process.

JPEG images burned to DVD are viewed fine on my Macbook Pro, but my clients PC says the disk is blank. Have tried several times now with same result. Please help.

The JPEG images I have edited on my Macbook Pro and then burned to DVD view fine on my computer. But when I give the same disk to my client with a PC (Windows Vista), his computer says the disk is blank. I have tried several times, first I burned the entire folder to the DVD, then tried burning just the images (not in a folder), and I also tried renaming the disk (shorter name, six letters), but always with the same result. His PC says the disk is blank and needs to be formated.
Please help,
Tim

I used "finder" to select the files and move them to the mounted blank DVD then selected "Burn to DVD" it then asks you to name it, and says "this disk can be used on any mac or windows based computer" or something to that effect, and I click "Burn" and it burns and verifies the contents. But it hasn't worked so far.
I will try again the way you suggest (fingers crossed).
The problem is likely on the client's computer.
Some computers can't read certain brands of disks, same thing occurs on Mac's.
If you work with this client often you can find out which brand of disk works best with yours and their computers.

AVCHD audio dropout at 15 seconds, but clip is fine in other software

AVCHD audio dropout at 15 seconds, but same clip is fine in other edit software-- I'm generating proxy files for a client from a Panasonic AF-100 shoot. All but one clip work fine. The problem clip plays back only the first 15 seconds (exactly) of audio. No audio appears at all on the waveform. This problem is in both the source and record monitors, and across projects. Media Composer and FCP both imported the file with no problems. Is there a known issue with AVCHD and CS6?

There is another option if the Macbook will start up in Target Disk Mode.
Restart the computer while holding down the T key. If you see the firewire symbol moving around on the screen you can connect this one to another one in TDM. You will need a suitable cable to connect the two Macs.

DARKENED CLIP VIEWER.... IS THERE AN ANSWER?

I've spent the past week trying to fix this incredibly annoying problem. The clip viewer in the Final Cut Pro X is DARKENED. I have tried on multiple occasions to recalibrate the screen, color sync, run repair disk, deleted Final Cut Express 4, reinstalled 10.6.8 package. There are two other discussions running on this topic and still no answer.
Apple support suggested deleting Final Cut Express and reinstalling 10.6.8. This is getting insane. When you scroll the mouse over a thumbnail, the image in the clip viewer and the thumbnail go dark. Move the mouse OFF the thumbnail and it goes back to its correct colour but now ANOTHER thumbnail has gone dark. This is quite difficult to explain. Please see the screen grabs below. I've run out of ideas here. This is getting ridiculous!

do you use multiple monitors?
i had the same problem when using fcp x with my second monitor connected.
the clips get back to normal when i disconnected the second monitor from my mbp.
its strange cause i had been using the 2 monitor setup before and there's been no problem.
and then i tried to re-connected my 2nd monitor and it get dark again.
after that i changed the second monitor's calibration / "display profile" to the original setting, and the problem is gone.
hope this can help.
oh, and i'm not recalibrate my screen, i just change the display profile to its previous one (before i calibrate it).
sorry for the bad english, i'm asian.

I don't believe the iOS7 update was the cause for your issue. I have three devices all updated and they all show the Import To drop menu in Image Capture as shown below.
