Lost video part of timeline

[John Fishback]

Do you see the actual edited clips in the timeline, but there’s no video output? Or are the video tracks in the timeline empty? Describe your system-computer, OS, version FCP, graphics card, i/o device or card, etc. How do you monitor the video?

Hi, John,

I restored the project to an earlier version, so settled that problem, and it is now fine, but would love to figure out what I did…

Video Tracks in timeline were all empty, no edited clips.

I am working on final cut pro academic 6.06 on a MacBook w/ Mac OS X Vers. 10.5.8 Processor is 2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo Memory is 2GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM

Use the MacBook and 2 external 500GB G-Raid2’s.

Chipset Model: NVIDIA GeForce 9400M
Type: Display
Bus: PCI
VRAM (Total): 256 MB

Thanks!

I’m glad you could restore your project. Have you trashed prefs & repaired permissions? If not, it’d be a good idea to do so. Also, run Disk Warrior. I do that at least once a month as preventive maintenance.
