I’ve found a very slow work around, so I’m still hoping someone figures this out better.

If I bring into CS4, and then Render out as an image sequence it fixes this issue. But with such a tight deadline, I’m not a fan of this method.

So I’ve discovered that part of this problem is the new Quicktime player. I opened my .mov in Quicktime 7 and it played back fine. I checked it in several other media players with the same result, and did a test by rendering again through compressor.

Not sure what the guts of the problem was, but this seems to be a clue.

Hey All,

Something that just snagged me, and gave me the exact same error was FCP’s time remapping. We just upgraded to the new FCP, I opened a job from a couple months ago that need changing. All of my timelines but one would export, the odd man out kept giving me a general error.

I took the steps above, rendering clip by clip to find the culprit, and sure enough it was on a clip that had its speed changed. I brought a fresh instance of the clip down, and tried to put the same speed settings on (I think the previous editor to this piece was using 20463%). FCP gave me an error, saying it capped out at 10000%. I set the new clip to this max, and all was well.

I’m guessing that the previous FCP let you go hog wild with your speed changes and the new one’s a bit more careful with the new speed controls.

I agree with Neat Video. I just got it for FCP to adjust a shot where the Camera Op had high gain, and it smoothed it out beautifully.

You do get some softening, obviously that’s how these noise reducers work, however, even on close-ups the softening isn’t tragic. My test shot was a framed MS and it looks great.

I got it to work with the resolution change, I had to open AE AFTER I changed the resolution and it worked just fine. Not sure why that wasn’t working with AE open. t

Thanks for the assist!

to my dismay, I’m already at my max resolution. Because the Dual Widescreen is capable of a wider vista, it goes past the MacBook’s and Dual Standard monitor’s reach.

I know that I can just bring the project back onto the other system and shrink the workspace, but it seems slightly ridiculous that there’s no way of resizing the workspace from system to system.

I managed to find a less-than-pretty work around.

Once you cut up your clips on the timeline, drag them back into your Bin. They will all be named the same, but this is ok.

Highlight them all, then click File > Batch Export.

Once you set your destination and Item settings, click export. Batch Export will automatically prompt you to re-name all of your clips.

Thus far its the easiest thing I’ve found with out purchasing ReCut.

I should add that one of our Editors attempted this, laying the footage on the timeline and making cuts, then media managing. It worked, but we can’t seem to duplicate the process on other machines.
