Problem opening a project file
-
Good luck to you.
I am finishing up a huge project that leaves Sunday. I’ll be living in the edit suite until my plane takes off.

You might want to try something more like 100 files at a time. Hey, then you know it’s one of those 100. Then try 50 of those. Then 25, etc.
You’ll narrow down the problem file infinitely faster.

Good luck with that project Jermey and thanks again.

Hey Bret
I will try this today and I will be posting as I go along -
So….? What’d you find?

OK, first of all thanks alot for all the help.
After many hours of locating files I think I have a solution for the problem. There were many files that had different problems. some were missing, some had similar names exefpt or the ending (exampel: motion projectfile had the same name as the QTfile i used in my FCP proj)
The only thing all of them had incommon was that FCP replaced the files with another file that were close to the same but had some diffrences like length or reelname.
Finnally after locating all these files my project works again 😉
Im a little dissapointed with FCP, I think there is to many diffrences between these files for FCP to mix them up… anyway, thanx again -
Good deal. FCP does ned some help in the media management and tracking department. It’s best media tracking feature is you. You have to be extremely careful and organized otherwise as you have found out the hard way, FCP can get confused.
Glad you tracked it down and you are up and running.

Whatever you guys say, Jeremy deserves the credit for this, he got me started on tracking the problem down. I just put the hours in. Thanks Jeremy. I might add that this mediaconfusion started with me reinstalling Tiger, do you think that can have a play in this? and if so, why?
Well, I still like FCP the best out of all software I have worked with and thats a few by now.
Take care guys, All power to the cow.
