Thanks Brett. I’ve sent the request for the plugins used to the former editor. Appreciate your help

Andreas,

Thanks for sending the app. – cool.

My present project was originally in the hands of another editor on a different mac. With that in mind
when I open the Project Details in your app and see the Effects Paths am I looking at the original paths from the former editor that he had on his computer or does it only show present paths on the computer and external HDDs I’m presently operating on.

Reason I ask is because I can see the exact Missing Effect that fcpx points out in your app but I cannot find the path on my computer or external drives. On the contrary when I look at all the EVent files Found and Not Found from your app I can find them all on my external HDD.

If I see the Missing Effect path in your App that fcpx points out does it mean that path is on my present mac or externals?

Thanks! joe

Joe,

The file paths which are displayed are the original ones which are saved in your event or project SQL.
So you have to ask the original editor to send you the needed effects (in case they are free otherwise you have to buy them).
Effects can’t be installed on drives other than the boot drive – they are located either in you user folder or in the application support folder in the /library.
