Ok so I’m currently transcoding each black clip one by one, and praying everything will work out in the end. I just want to thank you Ronny for your help and sticking with me here. Your response time has been awesome and very helpful for me to better understand what really happened. It is definitely a lesson learned at this point.I’m glad this forum has guys that are really passionate in sharing their wisdom, cheers!

Trashing preferences didn’t work, I guess because it’s a brand new version, I’m not sure. I was curious though, everything got messed up because it was introduced to my friends updated version, and I no longer could open the project up on my old version of fcpx. I still have the copy of my old version, and it won’t let me open my project. Is there any work around to trick the system into letting me open my project up again in 10.0.5?

No actually a lot of clips in the event browser are black, but I still see the in and out points used within the black clip. Since they are black in the browser, they are also black on the timeline where they are used. The black clips are primarily slow motion B roll that was placed above the primary timeline, I believe. I can right click a black clip and transcode media to optimized, and the clip returns. But when I start doing more clips, the start up disk error pops up and forces me to quit everything.

Thanks for sticking with me here Ronny, I appreciate it. So the clips do play in QT. I can’t really drag and drop onto the viewer, only place I found where I can drop the file is into the library again, which it pops up. But I wish it popped up in the original clip where my in and outs have been saved. How do I drag the clip to the event browser, is it where “all clips” is being viewed?

I believe my RAM is good, states I do have 16G. How do I check if it’s ok? I checked my activity monitor and nothing stands out of the ordinary. The “start up disk no space” error only started to occur when I jumped to the new 10.0.9 fcpx version from 10.0.5. But yeah nothing else running in the background.
