Hi guys, I had a pal call today saying they can’t play their sequence having upgraded from FCP6 to 7.
Instead of the sequence clips being blue, they are white and won’t play. Audio is OK.
The footage was originated on a JVC 111 and is MPEG 2 and was being edited natively in FCP6.
Snow Leopard10.3.6
Apparently it takes hours to open, and it seems to be rendering all the time.
Any clues ?

I’m trotting on over there now Dave, thank you !

Ah, thanks for replying Ryan.
All my other apps seem OK.
It’s mostly this audio thing from FCPX that’s problematic…according to the Digital Rebellion tests I’ve run. I think it’s maybe only on one file in one Event.
I’m still looking for it….I’m gonna hunt it down and …:-)
Apart from this I love love love most of what I’m using in the upgrade. Multicam is great, Photoshop layers are doing fine etc.

Hi David,
Thanks for your reply.
No I’m using FCP. I can transfer Red using pro res, no problems. I have several tests working fine in FCP, going to Color etc. using 444, 422 HQ, and native which of course my machine won’t do very well as it ain’t quite big enough, sigh.

I’m testing the proxy pro res workflow, following the instructions in the red workflow that comes with the installer, and it uses media manager to create a new sequence and master clip. It’s the part where you have to do a batch capture that I am having a problem.
all the best
Barbara

Hi Michael, thanks for the reply
Yes I am using log and transfer (sorry if I inadvertantly said capture) and have done all the settings in easy setup as per instructions.
The volume is seen and I can transfer no problem when doing straight capture.
It’s when I try to reconnect the proxies using batch capture that the problem occurs.
It was at the end of a long day so I will look again.
all the bet
Barbara
