source missing in Sequence timeline
Hello,
Just edited a scene and inputted in the timeline, and turned cpu off and came back to it today and noticed one clip in the sequence timeline is missing a picture of the scene itself and instead has either a green or red mark signifying source is missing or moved or has a broken link- but when I play the timeline itself, the scene shows up fine in the canvas, the sequence moves along smoothly when playing.
Should I worry about this??? Will this come back to bite me in the butt when I need to export?
Thanks

Have you moved any media?
What may have happened if you have moved or lost your original media, is that if you have an effect or filter on the clip in question and it has been rendered, final cut will be looking at the render files – but the original UNDRENDERED media may still be offline.
If this is the case, the second you make a change to your clip, you’ll need to re-render, and the missing footage will become a problem.
If you make no changes, then you should be able to export without problems, but I do recommend trying to get to the bottom of the potentially missing file anyhow.

Right but how do you get to the bottom of this? All I see is a red horizontial band in one clip- how do I even start to link the clip to it’s missing source?
Many thanks..
