Activity Forums Apple Final Cut Pro Legacy FCP wont export

  • FCP wont export

    Posted by John Craven on March 2, 2009 at 1:15 pm

    Hi,
    I have been dealing with editing a feature film for some months now. I’ve been able to easily export the sequence until now. I have tried a few things. I exported a self-contained quicktime movie, I used compressor in FCP to export it that way and none work. I even erased my hard drive, and installed all the software again. With no luck. I use to have an aja kona LSe card connected to an external monitor, but that stopped working about a week ago. When the problems started happening. I am trying to play with that and see if I can get it to work again, but no luck. When the project is open now FCP in general has become very slow. My settings now for FCP are the standard DV-NTSC anamorphic set-up. Any help would be much appreciated thanks.

    Sure, I just put the whole response from the apple forums where I posted the same question. It was corrupt media in the sequence that was messing the whole system up. I simply just took it out and it worked.

    “You likely have some media that’s corrupt and that is what is stopping the export. The LHe card is another thing altogether…. you might call AJA about that. Try moving your media to another folder on the same hard drive, then open the project and reconnect the media files a few at a time until you see a crash or warning, or something that lets you know that the media needs recapturing. If this fails to fix you up, I’d suggest a clean erase and install of OS X, then FCS on top of that on a fresh startup disk. If you’ve not done this in a while, it’s likely time anyway to do it.
