Duplicate Clip command crashes FCPX
Posted by Mark Dobson on February 25, 2012 at 9:41 amJust wondering if it’s just me.
But since 10.0.3 when I try and duplicate a clip – cmd d – FCPX crashes.
Anybody else had this problem?

February 25, 2012 at 10:30 amCan’t reproduce that. Maybe it’s something in the clip. Mine was a DSLR H.264 clip.
Curious why you’re duplicating a clip. I don’t think I’ve ever done that, except in an audition.
All the best,

The reason I duplicate clips is that one can then apply a separate set of Favourite selections – very useful when dealing with interview material.
The clip I’m trying to duplicate has 2 interviews on it and I wanted to separate the favourite set.

February 25, 2012 at 2:38 pmWell thanks for checking.
I decided to re-download FCPX thinking I might have a conflict somewhere unreachable but that has not sorted the problem out.
What I did find however was that the 1o.0.3 version I was trashing was over 2GB in size whereas the fresh download from the ap store was only 1.47GB.
So for some reason my old FCPX had got bloated.
From what I have picked up on this forum many people have idiosyncratic FCPX problems which become more complex when you consider the different host machines, operating systems, memory allocations etc.
Bit like life really.

February 25, 2012 at 10:42 pmGotta say, my life in X has sucked since 1.0.3.
My problem is that I was setting up a new room at home and I added everything from 16GB of new RAM (OWC) to a new Focusrite interface and drivers, so knowing the cause is my new mission today.
Anyway I have had crashes, horribly corrupt files, and worse, for the first time ever, computer crashes from freezing to the dreaded dimming screen and death message from Apple.
I was just about to ask about this in a new thread.
So I will.
