Fantastic, re-exporting the clips as ProRess422 before working in FCP worked out swimmingly. Cut exporting in half.
Thank you very much.

I understand about mpeg2 being a horrible codec. These are the files im being sent from around the world. I current have 7 producers around the world sending me different codecs. This one codec i get sent all the time and is only the one giving me a real headache. Being sent from Portugal and Lisboa. Before I even start sending the footage to FCP I re-compress it to a different codec in compression. H264 for example. Never bring the mpeg2 footage near FCP 7.

Should I change my exporting codec totally? From start to finish.

Original Footage codec was: MPEG-2 Video, MPEG Layer 2: Dim: 1920 × 1080
Reexported: MPEG-4 Video, AAC, MPEG-4 SDSM, MPEG-4 ODSM, Hint Dim:854 × 480
Even went as far as to upload to youtube. Then use Keepvid.com and down load it:
H.264, AAC Dim: 640 × 360
Still same results as far as hour render times.

So just buy an external thunderbolt or firewire and start storing media on their. Instead of internal also output to external and it should save processing time?

Thanks again, this has been plaguing me for sometime now.

1908X1080

I Am running on same drive, been thinking about partitioning the drives. Any Tutorials on best way to do that. As Far as processing that should clear up time/space/rendering times? Correct?

I know that it takes 2x the length of the clip, as far as VFX: none, only a 3way color correct on the clip. Rest is just .psd graphic layovers at 300dpi. Sending to internal HD.
