Brilliant – didn’t see it hiding there at all, thank you.

Also, does anyone know where the shortcut is for changing clip speed etc. or have we lost this as a button?

Whenever I try to copy a clip from one project to another, within the same library, FCPX freezes. There’s no beachball of terror, it’s just completely unresponsive, and I have to force quit.

This is an old updated library, and programme has crashed completely once. I’m guessing this could be a performance issue, which is frustrating as I’ve already trashed preferences. Has anyone else experienced this?

Thanks Nick – I dithered over which forum – I find the FCPX ones oddly titled…

I’m experiencing sudden audio volume bursts, but I’m using FCPX – is this still a problem for people? I’ve not really managed to find anything on it. Rather than than a random sound (which is what this thread seems to refer to?), it is actually the volume of the clip file that massively increases to heart-stopping volumes. I work with interviews mainly, and it happens randomly at the start of cuts.

Original content is filmed on a C100 as an AVCHD file (h.264), but then transcoded within FCPX to ProRes.

Hi everyone, thanks so much for your replies – and sorry for delayed response, had forgotten to set up alerts and hadn’t realised it had posted already (a new user).

I appreciate all your suggestions, and figured the answer would likely be, don’t have the music on the primary line. I do edit music videos sometimes, which is why I have it on there sometimes, and in this film, earlier editing of talking heads was on primary, but then I moved it as I was then fine tuning elements of the interviews/cutaways to be in time to the music.

So yes. Lesson learnt. Be a less messy editor. But loving the ., shortcut – I think that’s what I was really after – thanks!

Thanks Loren and Jeremy for your replies. I already have the group events by date turned off and unfortunately there are so many clips that renaming date and time stamp on each would take far too long.

For anyone else with this problem, the solution I used in the end was:

Modify > Apply Custom Name > Original Name from Camera

This carried over the data of eg. MVI_0894 which put the clips in creation order. so when not in ‘group events by date’ as Loren said, it’s a bit more ordered. It’s not perfect as you can’t go easily to ‘the speech at 10.14am’ for example, but at least gives some guidance.

I am still intrigued as to why the clips are showing up as MPEG4s in the import window though, when they are .mov’s on the HD?
