    Hi,

    I have this wacky rendering problem.
    I’ve just upgraded to FCP 5 and when re-rendering some of my files the rendering finishes…
    yet the red, ‘needs rendered’ bar still appears there. When I select a portion of the sequence SOMETIMES it renders…I play with selecting
    different portions and after much frustration I can usually render the sequence completely. I’ve had this exact problem running Premiere Pro a few years ago and using Magic Bullet in older versions of FCP.

    Is there a simple answer…or complicated?
    This madness must end.

    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/
    or
    https://pistolerapost2.com/fcprescue/

    This is one FCP tip that has helped in solving hundreds of “odd” problems.
