XML Crashing FCP while importing.  Magic Bullet Looks could be the problem

Hi All,
Need a little help here.
I am using FCP 6.0.5 on a power mac G-5.
I am trying to open an XML which was exported out of FCP 7 as a version 4 XML.
Magic Bullet Looks is being used on the project, and I think this is were the problem is.
when importing the XML it crashes FCP when I select the Include Video/Audio Effects.
When I import the XML without this option selected it opens fine.
I have MB Looks Installed on machine, so the Plugins are there.
Just wanted to see if anyone has dealt with this issue or might have any insight to the problem.
I can post the Crash info on the specific thread if that can help.
Thanks!

Couldn't agree more Jim - hence why I'm not using Snow Leopard yet as I had a nightmare in the early adoption of an older operating system. As for MBL, there seem to be many using it without problems so I don't think it's an issue with the product per say and it really is a very good plug-in. (That view will change to excellent once the problems go away) I just need to get to the bottom of which square peg is destined for which round hole and I'm hopeful that all will be well. I've also submitted a support question to Magic Bullet so will update if I get a solution. I like the CleanApp idea. I'll try that as well. (and I may even give Snow Leopard a go!)

    You can try these things and see if it helps.
    Tap Settings, then tap Safari on the left side. Then on the right side - tap clear history, clear cookies, clear cache. Clear all three. Reboot your iPad. Hold down on the sleep button at the top until the red slider appears and slide to power off. Then hold down on the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and the iPad will restart. Launch Safari and see if helped.
    If that doesn't help, try this. Tap Settings, then tap General on the left side, then scroll down on the right side and tap Reset, then tap Reset Network Settings at the top. Reboot your iPad as described above. Launch Safari and log on to the Internet. You may have to enter your network password again when you reset Network Settings.
    Renew the Lease in WiFi by going to Settings>WiFi>Network Name>Renew Lease. Reboot your iPad and try Safari again.

  • FCP Crashes while using Magic Bullet Looks

    Hi All,
    We have recently installed Magic Bullet Looks onto our main edit machine. However, using it causes FCP to crash with really annoying regularity. It seems to be related to either auto save or thumbnails (opening a sequence with Looks applied and it will crash while loading the thumbnails onto the timeline for example - that could be a coincidence as it crashes in many other situations as well but always when working with MBL))
    I've tried the usual preference trashing things but can't stop it happening. Anyone had any similar issues that they've been able to resolve? We aren't yet running Snow Leopard but I may try that as a potential solution.
    If it matters - the machine is dual 3.2 quad core with 6GB of RAM running FCP 7. It also has a Blackmagic Extreme card (tried turning external video off - no difference)
    All thoughts greatly appreciated,
    Regards and a happy new year to all,
    Richard

    I did a quick google search for "Magic Bullet Looks plugin"  The first one I found does not even seen to be a Photoshop Plug-in  Is this the plug-in your trying to use in Photoshop?

    everytime i open the filter, final cut pro 7 crashes, anybody else having this issue?

    Angel,
    You may have better luck posting in the Final Cut Pro forum. This is a general iMac forum, not many users on this forum use FCP.
    Good luck!

  • HELP: Keep Getting Error When Applying Magic Bullet Looks

    get this error when applying Looks.
    "After Effects error: crash occurred while invoking effect plug-in "Looks".
    and then it says
    "After Effects error: Crash in progress. Last logged message was: <2280>
    <MCExportInfo: Destruct> <5> Destruct for 420462944"
    I try to apply Looks to another video and I get a different error saying language registry key. I apply Looks to a third video and I get the dynamiclink error. It's like different error for different video. All 3 videos shot with different cameras.

    Same problem here ! I have Vista 64 bit and Intel 4500 Mhd
    driver. The issue is Magic Bullet Misfire works fine in Adobe After
    Effects CS5 but it crashes with Magic Bullet Looks.
    Have checked OpenGL in AE CS5 which are by default OFF, that is if you open Adobe After Effects CS5 and into edit and then click 'preferences'. Under previews there is ur OpenGL info. Click OpenGL, its says need to update driver or get a better OpenGL above 2.0. I think updating to new OpenGL may fix the issue. I have made a video with Magic Bullet Misfire and it works fine but the issue is with only 'Magic Bullet Looks' presets where the AE crashes.
    So it cant be Windows 7, Vista or 32 bit or 64 bit issue. Probably a driver error or an internal Magic Bullet 1.4 or Adobe After Effects CS5 64 bit error.

  • Crash upon return to FCP from Magic Bullet Looks

    Problem:
    MacPro 2.8Ghz, Early 2008, Nvida 8800GT GFX Card, FCS3, Decklink HD 10.6.4, Magic Bullet Looks 3, ProRes 1080 footage cut on ProRes 720 timeline.
    After returning from placing a grade on a clip in Looks, at the first click of the mouse inside FCP, the whole app crashes. Digital Rebellion - Crash Analyzer says is a Graphics Cards/ Driver issue and the crash is related to quick draw!.
    Everything on the System is updated.
    I don't believe that the GFX card needs to be updated and work on other suites using older hardware and don't have this issue.
    Anyone know anything more as to why this would be happening?

    Hi -
    Check this out - it restored functionality for me (don't know if this is the latest info, this is the link I had on file):

  • Magic Bullet Look Suite 2 Messing Up FCP

    I just installed Magic Bullet Look Suite 2, and now whenever I try to open FCP it tells me it has quit unexpectedly. You know when you first open the program, and as it's loading there's that box in the middle of the screen with the name and logo of the application? Well, in there you can see all the parts of FCP that it's loading, and when it gets to Magic Bullet Look Suite 2, that's when it closes. I've tried restarting my computer, uninstalling and reinstalling the files, but every time it causes FCP to close. Does anyone have a solution so that I can use Look Suite 2 without FCP closing every time?

    I had an older version of the Magic Bullet plug ins and I just downloaded the newer version and my serial number worked fine.
    I did actually have one of the filters crash a render yesterday... so not all is good on my system either.

  • After Effects CC 2014 Crashing with Magic Bullet Looks on Mac

    Hi,
    I recently installed the upgrade to the latest After Effects CC 2014 v13.0 and found the Magic Bullet Looks now causes After Effects to crash. I'm using MBL v2.5.2
    I opened the Activity Monitor and noticed that whenever the crash occurs the Adobe QT32 Server is in a state of (Not Responding)
    On a clip I can apply the MBL plugin with no problems and even if I am copying a previously set up version from a previous clip, it applies and renders without trouble. I can click "Edit" on the plugin controls, open up the MBL control window and make all the adjustments I need without any trouble. The issue is when I then click either "Finished" or "Cancel" to go back to After Effects. The program freezes and I get the spinning wheel of death for about ten seconds and the the whole thing, MBL and AE shut down.
    I am running:
    MacBook Pro
    OS 10.9.4
    Processor  2.3 GHz Intel Core i72.3 GHz Intel Core i7
    Memory  8 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
    Graphics  AMD Radeon HD 6750M 1024 MB
    Cuda  6.0.54
    The footage is Apple Quicktime ProRes HQ
    I have Quicktime v10.3 installed and Quicktime Pro v7.6.6
    I am at a loss as of how to fix or even work around this. Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    There was a bug in MBL on Premiere CC 2014 that was causing crashing and lockups. Red Giant released an update quite quickly that so far seems to have fixed it for me. I know you're talking about AE but maybe there's some common code that was also fixed? As Rick says, have you checked the latest ver of MBL?

    Since you seemed to miss it, I'll just directly give you the link provided on that thread, but I really recommend that you carefully read that thread about the issue that you're facing. It inlcudes information about conflicts with ATI drivers.

  • Adjustment layer and Magic Bullet Looks corruption

    I often find using the adjustment layers to apply colour correction an easy trick and therefore love the concept.
    However, I've recently noticed that PP CS6.0.2 does not like MB Looks to be applied to adjustment layers all that well.
    On two recent projects, the primary sequence has become corrupt (PP loads and quits immediately) and I have to recover the edit by copying the none adjustment layer tracks to a new sequence and then relinking the media.
    Today, I spent 4 hours recovering another complex sequence and wanted to know if any other person has had a similar experience applying MB Looks to an adjustment layer?
    A word of warning to others who might be thinking of the same 'trick'.
    Perhaps I am expecting too much of the adjustment layer concept.
    Thanks for any responses.
    J.

    I found myself here because... I was trying to open last saved project and it just crashes.
    I did use Magic Bullet "Looks" and "Cosmo" on both footage and adjustment layers.
    "Panic... Drink Coffee" !!!!! idea !!!!
    Uninstall Magic Bullet
    Launch CS6APP
    Open same project file warning you don't have plugins installed.
    Delete the "Adjustment Layers" (you won't be able to get the adjustment layer settings back but, you will get the edit back
    Save project "new name"
    Re-install plugins
    Re-open CS6APP
    "new name" project file opens fine without the adjustment layers.
    But wait!!! Why should you uninstall Magic Bullet?????
    Open a new project
    Import entire project file into new project
    Go to media bin and delete the "adjustment layers"
    Find last Sequence that had the adjustment layers and you can go back to working
    We put finishing effects on entire or even sections of full edit
    1. Select edit < New Sequence from clip... apply effects on new sequence
    2. Not "adjustment layers" BUT!!
    2. Right now I found this just be an issue with RedGiant plugins I'm going to pass this post along to them..
