In the top left corner of the clips window there is a little drop down menu. It probably says All Clips as that’s the default. Click on it and choose Favorites and it will show only Favorites.

Sorry, but I never found a fix for this. I ended up losing all the work I had done on the event and project. Your only hope would be if you had a backup of the project and/or event data files. Good luck!

It’s definitely because of movement in the clip. I’ve had this happen with a lot of clips. The clip may appear to be not too shaky but I bet there’s somewhere in the clip where there is a quick lateral or vertical movement. Why FCP X can’t deal with those is beyond me. It would seem that any decent stabilization should be able to account for other movement.

Are both of the disks formatted as Mac OS Extended (Journaled)? Are all the permissions on your disks set correctly, i.e. full read write, etc.? This can also happen when the disk is too full or the file too big to put it in trash, hence the immediate deletion.

“I’d rather pay double for Premiere…”
Actually you don’t have to 🙂 The Adobe Switch Promotion is still going on and you can get Premiere Pro CS5.5 for 50% off which means $350-$399 depending on where you buy. Or get the whole suite with After Effects, Photoshop, Audition, Flash, Illustrator for about $850. It’s pretty much too good to pass up!

Yes, sync audio first and ave yourself a lot of headaches.

I had the same issue but a permissions repair didn’t fix it. In the end it turned out to be a corrupted event.

You can move the FCS3 programs back into the application folder and throw the FCPX programs into a folder labeled FCPX or something. Apple has a tech note describing this. Updating should work after that.

Did you have any of the other boxes checked to analyze the footage? That may be adding to the time.

This tip below may be worth a try to speed things up a bit, but not sure if it would affect start up. It’s from a blog where some guys are testing out FCPX on a 9 day bike race, shooting mixed formats and editing for broadcast. Definitely worth checking out. I think they ended up with about 5400 clips.
” I just found a simple way to speed things up: Menu “View-> Hide Waveforms”, do that for the Event and you can race through the icons even faster…..WOW! In the timeline it also helps to turn them off or just change the clipappearance in the bottom right.”
