FCP 7 — 8 second sequence won’t export
I’m having trouble exporting anything at all in Final Cut Studio 3. I have a 7 minute NTSC video that refuses to export. It just says “calculating” until I force the application to quit. I thought it may be because of the length, so I made a new sequence that was 8 seconds long, and it’s the same deal. It calculates for forever and I have to force quit. What’s the deal? The sequence was originally edited on FCP 6.

Please give your full system specifications, what computer, what drives, what camera or deck, how everything’s connected, what settings are on the media, what settings you’re using in Final Cut, and finally what version of the software, of the OS, and of QuickTime you are using.
All the best,

Computer is first gen Macbook Pro 2.17 GHZ 2-core. 3GB RAM (upgraded from 2) Operating system was recently upgraded to OSX 10.5.7. Quicktime is 7.6.2. Final Cut was freshly updated as well to FCP 7 (although the sequence in question was edited intially on FCP 6) Half the clips were captured using a DVCPRO deck, the other half were captured directly from a DVX100. All the clips say “DVCPro” as the compression. I’ve exported from this project before using FCP 6, and had no problems.
I should also note that when I export to Compressor or use the new “share” command, it gives me the same problems.
Thanks for your help
