FCP will not render and more
Hi!
I can’t get Final Cut to render a scrolltext, and when i play the clip i get a green screen instead of the normal “unrendered”.
I also have a problem with plain text clips that is on top of some freeze frames. When i play them the text sort of stick to
the screen and remains there after the clip should be gone. It also changes the view of the film in the canvas window,
like it only shows the left upper corner of the clip.
When i export it it looks allright.I have checked all configurations and everything seems to be in order. All of this happened at the same time.
Any suggestions?
Greatful for all help!Une

The first thing to always try is to Quit FCP, Restart the Mac, Open your FCP project and try again.
Next:
THE FOLLOWING COMES FROM THE KEN STONE WEBSITE:
“Over 5,000 years ago Confucius wrote: ‘If you are toiling away, you have changed nothing and FCP heads South on you, [starts behaving in strange ways] then it is time to trash your FCP Preferences.’ ”Click the following link for instructions.
https://www.kenstone.net/fcp_homepage/trashing_fcp_prefs.html
A great way to do this is to use “FCP Rescue” a free Apple Script that will Trash the Preferences for you (and restore nearly all of your user settings afterward).
There are versions for FCPro & FCExpress.Download these free Apple Scripts at
https://fcprescue.andersholck.com/
This is one FCP tip that has helped in hundreds of “odd” problems.
