dpx files with final cut pro
seems to maybe be something wrong with the header on my dpx files… every time I take one of these files from the bin and place them in to the viewer it kills the viewer and it turns gray with no options… just a gray square. The programer at glue tools is trying to figure out the problem but if suggestions are out there please… It is not my computer it is not the system I am running, everything I have is up to date and runs other files well. The place the files came from have been doing the same thing (over 500 times) and this problem has never happened.

OK this sound like you are dragging the DPX frames directly into FCP, that does not work.

Gary… the tech thinks he figured it out. First, you can drag them directly in via the plug-in from glue tools. That’s the whole point of the program, that you can drag files directly in and work with them. The issue seems to be that the dpx files were loaded with an “illegal” key code. The key code is supposed to be a number but “no key code” was the only file name they used. This would appear to be the mistake which made the program crash each time. I should find out soon if this is the problem and will post the solutions that become available so others can learn from my situation.
