Tried trashing preferences. Didn’t work. How do I test the speed of the drive?

Hi Bret,

This is the problem I am running into. Check out the link.

It shouldn’t be this way. 7 never did this.

Hey,

I tried it and it still doesn’t work. I am editing in proxy and it is still like this. I don’t know what to do about it. Makes me want to move to another NLE, or back to 7. I never had this problem with 7.

Hi Michael,

The thing is FCP X doesn’t allow you to seperately point where you want optimized and proxy media to live does it? Doesn’t just allow you to put both in the same library on one drive? So if I do transcoding to my home external, but want to edit with proxy on my internal HD on my laptop on the road, will I have to just manually copy the files over? If that’s the case it seems more like a fcp 7 workflow that I know X is trying to get away from.

Hi James,

The thing is I only want to have proxies on the hard drive of my laptop. It is an 256 SSD and I would rather have something on there that is compressed rather than original media.

Couldn’t I just create a library on my hard drive, start a new project and copy over my sequence from the external and relink to the proxies? Then when I am back home move that project over to the external and relink to optimized when I want to go to finishing?

Hi Mark,

I haven’t. I will give that a shot.

Thanks!

I checked my gtech firewire 800 drive. It is 7200 RPM, but bus powered. Does BUS power make a difference in speed which will effect FCP X performance?

All I know is I would use that gtech drive with final cut 7 using proress and never have any performance issues. Using the same drive with X is horrible. The more complex the project is the slower it gets. I don’t understand it.
