Viewer shows clip that's not on timeline

I have a very strange problem, which might have an easy solution, as my knowledge of FCP has gaping holes in it.. I'm editing a clip, using 2 video-tracks and 2 audiotracks to fade and overlap and stuff. In the middle of a (uncut) stretch of video, the viewer shows me a small part of video that's way before that, chronologically, and shouldn't be there at all. When I stop playing, the viewer shows the image that should be there again. When I scrub through the stretch of video, it all looks normal. When I play it again, the 'wrong' piee of video comes up again. There's no material on my second video track, and I've tried moving the stretch of video in which it occurs: same problem at the same spot. It looks like the second piece of video is stuck underneath the first and moves with it, or something. Unfortunately (and logically) the piece of wrong video shows up in the exported movie as well. Does anyone have a solution? Oh, to make things easier, I'm still using 6...
Thank you,
Elizabet

First, what format are your clips and what are your sequence settings?
Does this section require rendering? If so, is it rendered?  If so, toggle on and off the clip (control-b) to see if that fixes things.
could be a corrupt sequence.  Create a new sequence with the same settings, make the old timeline active, select all (command-a), copy (command-c),  Make the new sequence active and paste (command-v).

  • Duplicate Detection Shows Clips That Are Not Dupes !

    Let me admit at the outset that this is not a serious problem, just a curiosity.
    I experimented with the "Show Duplicate Frames" command on a project and had loads of coloured lines appear denoting duplicates.
    The only trouble is that there is not a single duplicate frame used in that project !
    I then created another "test" project by importing a clip and breaking it down into subclips. I dragged them all from the browser to the timeline and then dragged another one that was obviously a duplicate.
    It worked perfectly and the 2 dupes showed up in red.
    So why has the original project got numerous false dupes? Incidentally this "problem" project was captured as 3 clips (from the same tape) which were then split into subclips.
    Any ideas what is going on?

    For detecting dupes, FCP looks at 2 things: the time code and reel number. If you have not changed the reel number from the default 001, and all your tapes start at 00:00:00:00, then you will have several clips with identical time code and reel numbers, which FCP will then assume are the same clips, just digitised at a different time. Not changing the reel number is a _bad habit_ because, if you ever lose your media and have to redigitise, you will be up the proverbial creek, not knowing what reel to put in when the system asks you for "Reel 001". Label your tapes and log your reel numbers!!!

  • L do not see an orange line in the browser for clips that are in the timeline.  What do I do?

    How do I get the orange line to show in the brewer for clips that are in the timeline.  Mine doesn't show it.

    I called Apple and said it is a glitch which caused me not able to see a registration key. They sent my $30 back so I will make another order of Quicktime Pro 7 to get registration key.

  • Made a 2 minute edit on Final Cut Express but at the 30 seconds (after I exported), there's a clip showing up that is not in my project, a clip i don't want in there, a glitch, how can I correct this problem? I don't want to start over again :(

    Basically, I have 2 problems:
    1) When I export it shows this clip that's not in my normal project and it ruins my project by having this clip in there; it's like a glitch. I tried to change the clip, and and still doesn't make the project normal again. Tried a new sequence and dragging the project into HD Mode and to no avail.
    My camera:
    HD: 1080p
    Settings: At Hd
    2)
    Also, it's only displaying black bars above my project, even after exporting at 720p. I just don't want this random clip in my project or the black bars. I'm using Final Cut Express. Does anyone have any possible idea what this could be? Any help woud be much appreciated! I'm clueless on this.
    IS ANYBODY OUT THERE?  : )

    1) Is it a video clip? Something you recognize?  To be clear, it's displaying at a point in your exported movie but doesn't appear at all in the sequence?
    2) What are your sequence settings?  Right-click your sequence and choose "Item Properties" to verify.

WHat do i do!!!!!!  Is this some type a virus???? my mac is protected!!!!! tried to chat with an IT person but they keep asking if its like a tech problem and it is just iphoto

    You should get your keyboard checked as it's repeating  on a lot of keys and makes you look silly.
    There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 9 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
    - History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    - Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
    Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

  • Black screen between every clip that does not appear on timeline, only on MOV file

    Hello
    I originially had this issue  https://discussions.apple.com/message/17086997#17086997
    I have now fixed the letterboxing issue but now have this problem (I did not have this issue before) where I get a very short black screen between each clip I put on the timeline. The black screen does not show up on the timeline, it only appears once I create the file. I'm not sure if this is affected but the fact I have an external hard drive. All my footage is stored on the hard drive and i save my Final Cut Pro file on the hard drive then upload it to YouTube. I made 2 quick short MOV files to test this theory (one made from footage on my EHD and the other from footage from my desk top) neither files had the black screen in the MOV files.

    These links are to my latest video I uploaded which shows the blacks clips, it's not terrible to have them but it's very annoying.
    Thank you in advance for your help and Merry Christmas

    Hello Nick, thanks for the answer.
    I have fully lengthened my timeline and the black gaps are not there to delete (they only appear once the file has been exported).
    The issue I have (I think) is that im not sure what export settings I am meant to choose to export the footage.
    My camera records in widescreen so when I place my footage onto the time line and final cut pro automatically selects the correct settings for me, this is what is chooses
    This is then the export settings that are automatically in the box when I go to export
    As my footage is 1920 x 1080 I would expect to be given an option with that in but these are the only options available
    I am not sure if this should create the black spaces between each shot.

  • How to stop Timer event inside movie clip that does not exist?

    Hello. I am using Adobe Flash CS6.
    As this topic title says. how to stop Timer event nside movieclip that does not exist?
    I mean my fla stracture is  there are 2 frames on main timeline, and I put mcA on frame 2.
    And I put a button on root that does
    if(currentFrame ==1)
    gotoAndStop(2);
    else if (currentFrame ==2)
    gotoAndStop(1);
    And mcA has AS inside and it is
    var T_Timer:Timer = new Timer(1000,0)
    T_Timer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, test)
    function test(e:TimerEvent):void{
    trace("Timer active")
    T_Timer.start();
    I need to stop T_TImer from root on frame 1, not on frame 2.
    but, "mcA.T_Timer.stop();" won't work.
    I get TypeError: Error #1010 error.
    I don't know how to stop this timer event. I have to stop it from root, and I can't use EVENT_REMOVED in this case.

    If the object doesn't exist you cannot do anything relative to targeting it.  Maybe you should move the timer to the main timeline where you can access it any time.

  • Why is Creative Cloud showing applications that are not installed?

    For some reason Creative Cloud is showing applications that I don't have installed as installed (see below).
    I posted the VERY frustrated question of "why won't Creative Cloud uninstall?" and was met with NOTHING useful, and ended up having to
    "manually uninstall" (delete the program folders) all of the programs I didn't want including CC, which I then re-installed.
    The programs that I don't have installed below are: inDesignCC, PhotoshopCC, IllustratorCC, InCopyCC, and Bridge.
    I was able to run the Adobe Cleaner on Indesign CC and Bridge, but nothing else.
    Does anyone know why I can't get rid of the rest?

  • Video Clips That Do Not Play Audio

    I know it's something simple.  But I can't seem to find the solution.
    I am editing .avi video clips (talking heads) with audio which was recorded on the camera audio tracks. The video clips all play just fine with the accompanying audio in the Source Monitor as well as in the Project Panel player.  But when I Insert the editied clip onto the Timeline, the video appears, while the audio does not.  It's clear I have done something to my settings or the like, as this problem just appeared where previously it did not exist.  Can someone direct me to the source of my problem and the fix for it.  Thanks very much.
    I have noticed that when selecting a clip in the Source Monitor and choosing the Display Mode with the pop-up menu that 'Audio Waveform' is now greyed out.

    Bill,
    Did you mean to say "does not look problematic." or, as you wrote, "does look problematic."? 
    To answer your question, the latter; miniDV tape capture originally took place using another PC and was stored on an external HD.  I downloaded the original miniDV tape files from that HD the other user had captured to.  I will say this. The original notes regarding the tape logs made by the person who digitized footage indicates that the original HDV digitized footage (.mpeg) was simply "digitized."  While the .avi footage was converted using Cineform; his logs also show the audio conformed using cineform as well.  Is it possible this is the source of the wonkiness I am experiencing with audio and perhaps the source of all of my trouble?
    To that end, if I were willing to start the project over entirely, could I simply delete the .avi files from my PC, begin a new project and import the HDV (mpeg) footage into PP project panel editing in that format?  Considering the .avi DV files have a window burned Time Code which would eventually require me to conform the original HDV footage (mpeg) to the .avi (rough/fine) edit, would I be better off working with the original HDV footage to start with?
    Oh.  And to answer your last question: Yes, I have had no troubles whatsoever with scratch V.O. audio files I have recorded myself.  I have recorded them at 24-bit 48K sample rate .WAV (poly) files and simply performed a drag and drop to my desktop before copying them over to my data disk where all the other files for my project reside.  Each and every V.O. file I create shows up as a Waveforem on the Timeline.
    I greatly appreciate your guidance.

  • Shared calendars are showing events that are not on my calendar

    I have shared a calendar with my wife.  When she looks at my shared calendar (on mac, on iOS, on icloud.com), she sees events that I long ago deleted on my calendar.  I do not see those events any longer on my calendar (on mac, on iOS, on icloud.com).  I have tried unsharing, then resharing.  Any way to completely clear out my shared calendar?

    Looks like it was a really weird situation.  If I viewed the event in my shared calendar on her computer, I could see that I was invited to my own event.  So I gave her edit permissions then she could delete the event and all is good now.  So weird that it didn't show up on my computer

  • Image appears that is not in timeline..so where is it??

    Hi - hoping someone can help...
    I recorded a bunch of screenshots (and can't recreate the simulation so have to work with what I have)...
    I have a slide with an image of active window (it's a background image). There is also a mouse that appears (moves & clicks) after a few seconds. When I play the slide, near the end of the slide, the image changes and appears to be the original active window now appearing as inactive and a smaller, active window that shows in front of it.
    I'd like to be able to adjust the timing of when this second image appears. However, the problem is that this second image (inactive window/new active window) does not appear in my timeline anywhere. Nor is it in the library. The slide does not have any full motion recording either. I have no idea where to find this second image and I cannot see anything in the timeline or slide properties that triggers its appearance. Any suggestions would be much appreciated!
    Thanks!

    @Rajeev I think you didn't well understand the question. If the 'image' is not visible on the timeline, how can it be in the Library? The OP even mentioned it explicitly that it is NOT in the Library. And if the image was used on a slide, it would never be selected with the command 'Unused items'. Sorry to be so critical but your answer is very confusing.
    @ecg2000 This problem has been appearing several times on the forum: it is something captured by Captivate which happened on the slide at the end of the timeline. And although technically it is not shown as a FMR it feels a little bit like being a very short FMR within the slide. You can edit the background in an graphical application, but not sure it will help. If you can estimate 'when' it appears on the timeline (maybe insert the system variable cpInfoCurrentFrame to help), you could truncate the timeline at that location?
