    This usually happens because one of the files is corrupted. Try rendering in sections rather than render all. When you find the file that is stopping the render, try adding a filter to the file, but giving it a value of 0, so that it has no practical effect. This should allow you to now render that file.

    the files in question were rendered successfully by others in adjacent FCP suites. We are a 12 machine house. We are all running FCP 6.0.4… It seems like my software (or my Mac) does this with every red bar render I try.

    Thank you for providing further information.If this is happening every time you try to render any file then it does sound like a software or hardware issue.

    Do the other FCP suites have the same specs, ram etc as the machine you are using?

    Have you tried standard maintenance procedures such as trashing preferences, repairing permissions etc?

    they are supposed to be identical. Where do I start looking to see how they are different?

    click on the Apple drop down menu and select ‘about this mac’.

    Please provide more info – operating system, mac model, version of fcp, how much ram etc
