    Thanks for the reply Matt. Sorry about the late response. That’s actually a really great solution to the problem. However, we just started getting this problem on another clip and this clip has lots of markers already. Is there anything we can do to prevent this again from happening in the future?

    We think we may be narrowing down the problem though. We noticed that the last clip had a single blue line around the border of the viewer that appeared after the moment FCP stopped allowing us to mark. The editor said that she was typing quickly and might have accidentally hit a hot key that may have locked the clips from further markers.

    Does anyone know if there are any hotkeys or marker/clip settings that prevent the editor from marking a clip? Maybe something sort of like the “CAPS LOCK” key function?

    Thanks,

    Thanks for the reply Jerry. Sorry about the late response. Our clips are DVCPro – NTSC, from SD Mini-DV tapes. We’ve only had this problem with a few.

    Thanks for your quick responses everyone.

    For some reason, I don’t think that if there is limit or not, that it applies to this situation. The reason being that I can’t even delete or edit (change position, edit marker title and comment, etc.) only to this one clip. I can add, delete, and edit markers on all the other clips on this project.

    I even did a test where I created a new project and copied the clip over and I still can alter any makers. So I think I isolated the problem to just that one clip.

    Are there any clip settings that involve markers that maybe I’m not aware of?

    Thanks,

    This is a lengthy solution but you could try nesting the sequence and then export it into it’s own QT movie file then import it back into your project as you would any media and then break it down into subclips.

    —-
    1) Nest the sequence
    2) export it into a QT file
    3) import it as a master clip
    4) break it down into subclips

    Ahhhahaha! Woo, that worked like a charm! Thanks a bunch, Jeremy! You saved me so much time and work.

    That was such a simple (and obvious) solution but for some reason I didn’t think you could change the media start time in the browser. Thanks again for taking your time to answer such a noob question.

    Anyone else have any positive (or negative) experiences upgrading FCP 5 to FCP 6 on Mac OS X 10.4.9?

    Hmmm… I did some research for you and found this. Hopefully this helps:

    “…The support guy told me that the only way to update is to use the OS X software update utility. So I’ll have to connect it to theinternet. :S
    I will have to do that for both Leopard and Tiger Macs.”
