[Jeremy Garchow] “Negative meaning the project won’t open?”
Yes, the project still won’t open.
[Jeremy Garchow] “Are you absolutely sure all media is on that second disk?
I think you are right. I’m on vacation (that’s why my answer take so long). But I had a friend who’s taking care of our apartment turn on the media server we have at home. I accessed it via VNC to install FCP7 and open the project. It opened just fine! So it has to be the media in some way. Some tests later I still couldn’t find the defective clip unfortunately, but I was able to open and render the project, and reconnect all the media from the backup volume. I finished this project now over the Internet.
The gist of this: It was the media indeed! Thanks very much for your help.
I wish there was an easier way though to find the media. I don’t know where Final Cut was searching.
