song skipping
When putting a song into my timeline it keeps skipping as if it weren’t rendered. I’ve tried putting the song back in, but nothing seems to be working. Any thoughts?

Is it an MP3 by chance? Try it as an .AIFF file.

whats the best way to convert?

Just use compressor to convert it. It’ll take no time at all. Convert to a 48hz aiff.

I have Apple’s sound editing app as part fo my suite; I just open mp3’s in there, hit save as, pick AIFF, done.

When I need to convert an MP3 into AIFF, I open the MP3 in QT Pro. Since I’m usually doing this from iTunes, I select the track in iTunes, right-click, choose “Show in Finder”. Then I open it in QT Pro. File -> Export -> Sound to AIFF. Save it in my FCP (or FCE) project’s folder.
Standard options work for me (Linear PCM, Stereo, 48 kHz, normal quality, 16 bit). Back to FCP and I use Propellor-I to bring it into FCP and I’m set.
