    Posted by Ayenka on May 30, 2006 at 10:59 am

    Hi all, this is the first time I am using the cow. I’m hoping that it will help decrease costly phone calls from East Africa to frineds in the Uk.
    Suddenly, I can’t seem to render on final cut pro. No error message is given. The program just refuses to render. If conversted to Quick Time Movie the product plays in full, but I can;t render. What to do?
    Cheers and best wishes.

    Happy editing and God speed

    Try this: https://fcprescue.andersholck.com/ to remove your preferences with FCP closed. Then from the Sequence menu, after you reopen FCP, select Render all/ and turn on each of the render states there. Then type option+r and see if the renders will get going…

    Is your scratch disk were renders are directed to full? If it is filled up then no renders would be possible.

    In anycase check your scratch disk settings.

    If you still need to call your friends for help, you should look into using Skype (www.skype.com) to make the phone call.

    It will make it MUCH less expensive.

    We all have to call friends for help once and a while!

    Good luck!

    I had a problem similar to this and it turned out that it was a codec incompatibility between the sequence settings and the material in the sequence. (I was trying to set up an H.264 codec sequence with media made using other codecs.) The sequence looked fine, but would not render until I changed its codec back. No error message, just no render.

    Peace,
    Liane

    Maybe you don’t have the correct priveleges to write to your render folder (then you will get the error message as you describe). Try deleting your renderfiles folder, and try to render again. You will lose your already rendered files, but FCP will create a new render folder with correct priveleges.

    OR use Disk util and run check Disk priveleges.

    Hello Jerry Anders has some trouble with his Internet provider. His utility was to popular and generated to much traffic. But he made a deal with Michael Horton I presume and lafcpug are now hosting i for free.
