  Changed Macs and now titles always needs rendering

  Posted by Wayne Garton on February 21, 2011 at 2:58 am

  I went from IMac to Mac Pro 8 core, but also changed from Studio 2 to vers 3 at the same time, took my original project across, and now my original animated titles made in motion won’t play in FCP without rendering.

  I leave them as Motion files so I can right click and edit them easily. (For instance one week a may have a certain speaker on the programme and the next week I might want to change his name easily without remaking the Motion clip) This method used to work fine when I had Studio 2 and an IMac.

  I have opened each of them in the new version of Motion and saved them.

  Not only do these titles now need rendering, they also need a fresh render each time I move them along the FCP timeline.

  I am relatively new to Macs and FCP and may be missing something obvious that I did before on the IMac when setting it up but have perhaps omitted to do on the new machine.

  Hi Wayne,
  You may have set your FC for “Safe RT”. Try setting “RT Unlimited”.

  True. I did have. Now it plays without the big “Render sign” across the canvas. Thanks
