    Running off a G5 Dual 2.3 on OS X 10.4.7. Final Cut 5.1.

    I am trying to finish a documentary that was done on a iMac G5 on FCP 5.1. The project came to me on a G Tech 500 gig drive. So i duplicated the sequence so I could work off my own sequence and upon working, found that there were certain clips that were embedded into other clips. Usually clips that had titles over top. This kept happening every so often on 90 minutes of the sequence. Trying to get a quick fix, i figured out that if I moved the clip to a different video track and rendered out, the mysterious embedded clip would go away.

    Should I be updating to FCP 5.1.2? or should I wait till this project is done?

    Any help would be great! Thanks so much

    Delete all your render files and re-render.

    Hello Buddy,

    After long fustration with the same problem you had we think we have a solution. We magically turned the video track on and off. The phantom clip that it had become known around the office disappeared. We will keep you posted on our problems and you keep us posted on yours. Maybe we can support eachother through this awful situation. And hopefully FCP will fix this problem if it happens to enough people.

    Thanks,
    Cassandra and Jax
