  FCP X Clip offline after crash….

  Posted by Mark Mallett on September 9, 2011 at 11:36 pm

  After a crash, some clips turned red indicating that they were offline. However, I can’t find a way to reconnect the clip.

  Does anyone know the secret?

  Well, that’s interesting. After posting this, I dragged the pertinent clip from the browser to “Replace” what was there (meaning that I would lose what I did to it effects, etc.) But then I clicked Undo after that, and lo and behold, the clip reconnected.

  It works… but you’d think there’s a better way.

  “It works… but you’d think there’s a better way.”

  A sentiment we all share

  Also dragging offline clips from your hard drive back into the same event generally forces a reconnect as well. Or re-importing them through the file menu. As long as it’s the same clip you originally ingested and hasn’t been altered since, it works. X is pretty smart about it, just needs a kick sometimes.
