Nothing on Video Scopes
Posted by Jeff Jeffares on December 22, 2005 at 8:40 pmJust got a new G5 Quad w/FCP5 and when I go to Color Correction setup, nothing shows up on my scopes. Have tried all the different views with no luck. Any suggestions?
Merry Xmas!
Jeff

December 22, 2005 at 9:12 pmThe 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 FCP (Pro) & FCE (Express) and a new one for FCP 5.Download these free Apple Scripts at
https://fcprescue.andersholck.com/
This is one FCP tip that has helped in solving hundreds of “odd” problems.

I have FCP Rescue 5, but it is now not working w/ my new FCP

Well then, if you ever do need to trash the preferences, you can do it manually based on all the info that is in the link mentioned in the other post.
