  • Final Cut Glitch?

    Posted by Josh Hayes on October 15, 2008 at 6:03 pm

    Hello guys and gals. Starting about two weeks ago I started having a random glitch on export from FCP.

    *Using FCP 6.0

    After exporting (as a Quicktime movie, or using Quicktime compression) from Final Cut Pro) and looking at the exported file, there is a stutter in the video. So if we were looking at the timecode it would count

    1.2.3.4.5.6 and then back to 3.4.5.6 (looks like it rewinds for a sec). Almost always happens in the first 20 seconds, and it usually happens 1-3 times.

    Any guesses? If it’s Quicktime prob, any idea how to to a diagnostic on QT?

    Trashed your prefs? Done all the updates?

    Trashed preferences several times to see if it helped. Haven’t updated FCP in awhile (generally don’t like to do so in the middle of projects).

    What I’m using a workaround is to export uncompressed (as a Quicktime Movie) out of FCP, for one big uncompressed video. Then opening that video in Quicktime and recompressing. Essentially I’m doing the export option “using Quicktime Conversion” manually. That usually works.

    By the way, the codec I’ using it PhotoJPEG.
