Hi everyone

I just finished cutting a 4k music video with Joe’s second method, and though I’d share my experiences and problems.

Raw footage 4k (not positive of camera, Sony I believe)
FCPX 10.1.3 on a 2011 MacBook Pro with 8 GB ram

The raw footage was unable to playback on my system, so I transcoded the media to Proxy and cut on a 1080p timeline. I’m now on the exporting phase and running into some issues.

Exporting the 1080p timeline was fine, it wasn’t until I tried to scale back up to 4k that errors occurred. First thing I tried was duplicating the 1080p project and manually changing the settings to 4k. Everything looked good until it background rendered, then my viewers just showed a solid green screen of death. I exported a small section and the rendered area was solid green and the unrendered section came out normal.

Then I started a new 4k project, copy/paste timeline, and again same green screen issue. Exported a sample and same result as above.

TURNED OFF BACKGROUND RENDERING, exported sample, and it looks normal! Very annoying, but not the worst thing I’ve had to deal with. I am currently exporting a final unrendered 4k version, which looks like it will take a few hours. I will update this thread with the result.

Hope this info is helpful
Cheers

Thanks for the info. WordPress is my focus, since it seems to be what everyone is using.

I will def read up the info on their site.

I’m really looking for video tutorials like the ones on here, can you recommend any video tutorials regarding HTML and CSS?

Thanks again!
