how does FCP manage storage space while rendering?
if I have say an hour Prores HD sequence…and I select all and hit render…how does FCP handle it’s available drive space? does it look at how much is available, put aside enough for the render, plus use enough cache for the entire sequence…or what? We’re dealing with the Out of Memory error on some stuff, and what solved it last night was changing to another partition on our san…but before it was corrupt media….
TIA

FCP, AFAIK, knows nothing about the future until it hits the brick wall.
It’s a matter of not being able to forecast its real world needs without first running a complete inventory and then extrapolating what it think its transcode operations will require, which is not a fixed ratio.“Out of memory” can be researched online extensively, It comes up for lots of mutually exclusive errors.
