codec not found?
before i elaborate on the problem, here are my specs:
Final cut 4.5
G5 Dual 2 GHz 2.5 sdrramAja kona 2
Sytem settings: Capture to G-Raid w/323 Gig’s available
Captured material: 720 p 59.94
Here’s the problem.
I have a project with 5 sequences, I loaded it recently, and one of my sequences wouldn’t open. A message popped up and read. “Codec not found.” i clicked OK and then it said. “Error. not enough memory.”
It was strange to me b/c it was of the same seq presets as my other sequences which are all fine. To circumvent the problem, here is what i did: I changed the seq setting for this one seq to NTSC dvcpro50 and it came back up, though unrendered.
At this point i copy.pasted the material into one of my other sequences and rendered it. It seems now to be fine, but i’m a bit paranoid, as I’m not sure what really happened, and if my edit is now safe. My initial compression setting was DVCPRO HD 720p60 and there had never been a problem. what would suddenly cause my computer to reject this seq. and how i can i prevent this from happening again?
I am not sure now if the seq, i pasted it into is immune to this malfunction. if it happens again, i will freak out. will someone clarify?
sincerely,

Shane’s Stock Answer #14:
If you get a CODEC NOT FOUND missing hardware check ALL your images in Photoshop and make sure there are in a RGB color space NOT CYMK, LAB, OR GREYSCALE
