QT 7.1..6 upgrade seems to have broken capture in FCP 4.5
QT 7.1.6 upgrade sesms to have broken capture on Final Cut Pro 4.5 HD
Since upgrading QT I cannot capture video in Final Cut anymore…. I can capture in iMovie but not FCP.
I have tried uninstalling 7.1.6 to try to reinstall 7.1.5 but it still sees the newer version and won’t let me install the older version. I have deleted the reciepts, prefs and app. but it still sees something somewhere and won’t let me install the older version. How can I fix this?I am on a G4 Dual 867 MDD OSX 10.4.9 FCP 4.5 HD QT 7.1.6

It wasn’t Quicktime…it was the system update to 10.4.9. There are a couple things you can do:
#45 – FCP 4.5 and Mac OS 10.4.9 – how to get it working again
Shane’s Stock Answer #45 – How to get FCP 4.5 working again under Mac OS 10.4.9
Apple’s solution: Archive and install the OS again, this time updating only to 10.4.8.
Another COOL solution: Samba2007 posted that a friend solved the FCP 4.5 + OSX 10.4.9 capture issue adding the Capture Scratch folder to the Privacy of Spotlight in this thread:

OlSchoolCutter tried with SUCCESS (see post in that thread).
Then follow these stesp and try (it’s free!):
1. From the Apple menu, choose System Preferences.
2. From the View menu, choose Spotlight.
3. Click the Privacy tab to reveal the areas that Spotlight will not index.
4. In the Finder, open your “Final Cut Pro Documents” folder.
5. Drag the Capture Scratch folder into Spotlight’s list.Shane
