I have done similar shots with a DSL-camera (Canon 650d) shooting in 1080/60fps and using the ‘optical flow’-setting under the retiming function in FCPX.

I had the same problem. But trashing and reinstalling wasn’t enough. I had to completely remove the app and all settings. You can use AppZapper for this. It completely *zap* all settings and related files. Doing this did the trick for me.

I had a similar problem on the same spec iMac rendering in FCPX and Motion 5 in 1080p. So I upgraded the ram to 16 gb and start working with proxy-media instead of full quality preview. That fixed the issue for me. But with 20 gigs of ram you should be covered.

Did you recently installed a new app that could cause the crash? I have a java-based backup solution (CrashPlan) running and it needs a restart once in a while due to ram consumption.

Maybe this is off-topic.. But I have tons of AVCHD-files and I use ClipWrap (see https://www.divergentmedia.com/clipwrap) to rewrap the files to a mov-format that FCPX can handle. ClipWrap does the job without transcoding.

That sounds odd…

Try one of the following:
– Create a new user and try run FCPX under the new user
– try start OS X in safe mode and see if the app then will start

If one of the above fixes your problem you have a problem with a third party application on you system. Now you have to zero in on that application (which can be hard).

It it doesn’t work I would do a complete uninstall of the FCPX by using something like ‘AppZapper’ which completely removes (*zap*) the app, settings, etc. And the make a complete reinstall of the app.

The last step is to make a clean installation of your OS X

I’m not sure what answer you are looking for, but I think you should change your project settings to 1080p instead of 1080i.

1) In you Project LIbrary select you project (not open it)
2) With the project marked click on the little ‘Wrench’ on the right in middle – just above the ‘i’-icon
3) Change the video proporties to ‘1080p HD’

When exporting your photage will be progresive – not interlaced.
