Why is my FCPX 10.1.1 Library so HUGE (770GB)?

I only have 2 events and 2 projects referencing from about 230GB of footage, each with 15 minute timelines. All files were imported from an external HD using "leave files in place". Thanks in advance for any help!

It's interesting that Final Cut lets you delete render files but not transcoded media...makes me wonder how it will affect the project....
Sure you can  – at the library, event or project level.
If you delete and your editing starts to drag a bit, you can always select the clips you've used and transcode from the browser.

  • Why doesn't my whole iTunes music library show up on Apple TV?  Only songs I have purchased or downloaded show up

    Why doesn't my whole iTunes music library show up on Apple TV?  Home sharing is on on all devices.

    nevermind, i had automatic graphics switching check off. i removed the check mark and then went into about my mac and voila there was the amd card. Figured i'd post what i found in case anyone else was looking for an answer.

  • Why do songs keep duplicating in my Library. One song has duplicated five times. If  I delete the unwanted duplicates will it delete the song entirely from my library? How do I get the four unwanted duplicates out of my library?

    Why do songs keep duplicating in my library. One song has duplicated five times. I have many that have duplicated up to 3 times. How do I get the duplicates  out of the library without removing the song completely?

    As above, Apple's official advice on duplicates is here... HT2905: How to find and remove duplicate items in your iTunes library. It is a manual process and the article fails to explain some of the potential pitfalls such as lost ratings and playlist membership.
    Use Shift > View > Show Exact Duplicate Items to display duplicates as this is normally a more useful selection. You need to manually select all but one of each group to remove. Sorting the list by Date Added may make it easier to select the appropriate tracks, however this works best when performed immediately after the dupes have been created.  If you have multiple entries in iTunes connected to the same file on the hard drive then don't send to the recycle bin.
    Use my DeDuper script if you're not sure, don't want to do it by hand, or want to preserve ratings, play counts and playlist membership. See this thread for background, this post for detailed instructions, and please take note of the warning to backup your library before deduping.
    (If you don't see the menu bar press ALT to show it temporarily or CTRL+B to keep it displayed.)
    The most recent version of the script can tidy dead links as long as there is at least one live duplicate to merge stats and playlist membership to and should cope sensibly when the same file has been added via multiple paths.

  • Why can't i access my iPhoto library from my epson application

    why can't I access my iphoto library fron my epson aplication

    There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:   You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics.
    (Note the above illustration is not a Finder Window. It's the dialogue you get when you go File -> Open)
    You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
    There's a similar option in Outlook and many, many other apps.  If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
    If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
    If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running:
    For users of 10.6 and later:  You can download a free Services component from MacOSXAutomation  which will give you access to the iPhoto Library from your Services Menu.
    Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.
    For Users of 10.4 and 10.5 Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
    Other options include:
    Drag and Drop: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
    File -> Export: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
    Show File:  a. On iPhoto 09 and earlier:  Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.    3.b.
    b: On iPhoto 11 and later: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Reveal in Finder -> Original. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.

  • Why my Flagged photos vanished from photo library after I clicked to number next to it??

    Why my Flagged photos vanished from photo library?

    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.

  • Why not create a Indesign Javascripts web library ?

    Hi all,
    I see a lot of scripts passing by in this forum. I thought it would be very helpful to gather them in a library. It could look like a web site like this one for applescript
    http://olivier.berquin.free.fr/indesign/indesign_cs2.html
    We could have a "menu" frame on the left side with common principles (open, create, loop, for, whatever...)
    We could have too a Index on a page with script names associated with general terms like
    Page
    addPages.jsx
    removePages.jsx
    (Don't look at them, they are fake names)
    Maybe it already exists and I would be pleased to hear it (and know how to reach it :-)). But if not, this kind of library would be a very interesting resource.
    The idea is to have a look on existing scripts and aggregate bricks for new one. With time, the library is growing more & more.
    Maybe another Utopia, but I drop the idea.
    BTW, I don't know how to create a site but I guess it could be a very simple one.
    What do you think ?

  • HT2470 Why won't Itunes store my music library in my User/Music Folder, if I select my user name as a storage location in Itunes, Itunes creates folders for artist name right in my user folder, instead of in my user/music folder

    Why won't Itunes store my music library in my User/Music Folder? 
    If I select my user name as a storage location in Itunes, Itunes creates folders for artist name right in my user folder, instead of in my user/music folder.  This gets especially annoying because if I tell Itunes to store my "media" in my user/music folder, Itunes will then create a folder named "music" in my "music" folder and will also create additional folders in my user/music folder location to store other non-music media in as well. It is very annoying to see this lack of affinity for folders between two Apple created programs.

    Help iTunes locate your media folder:
    No content shows up in iTunes after updating

    Why can`t I get my complete library from Itunes on my Imac to my Apple tv3? I only got the option for music and photo`s. I want internet radio to show too

    Internet radio is not part of your iTunes library. There is a separate section on the ATV for radio if you wish to use or you can use airplay via iTunes.

    Why after loading all music into Itunes library does it erase every song on there a few days later?

    Your signature line shows you have a Sony. Vaio users worldwide are seeing this.
    It's some Sony software conflicting with itunes.

    why wont apple tv 2 load my library ? network is fine, wired connection, movies and music play over airplay, its just on atv main screen-computers just reads loading library ?

    This has been happening to me lately too.  The workaround I've been doing is quitting iTunes and reopening it.  After that, my AppleTV finds it right away.  Unfortunately, it's a temporary solution because it's happening every time I want to watch anything.

    Why do i need to download and install a huge piece of software just to purchase a gift for someone?  It seems like very bad business practice to me!

    Stores only have gift cards, and because I live in a different country to the person I want to send one to, that isn't practical.  Installing itunes, seems excessive, especially as I would first have to install wine on linux, just to buy a gift for someone.
