Hi Jason, I thought the same thing. I have 4G of RAM, and tried it with nothing running other than FCP. I can render hour long projects easily when there are no Motion projects in them. At this point I believe it is the Motion projects. In a 40 minute piece we have 100+ Motion projects. For the online I will render out and bring them in as QT. I don’t want to do that now as the editor might still be making changes as we wrap the rough.

So far nothing has worked. I think it is all the Motion projects.

If I understand you right you loged as NDF; when in fact it is DF. You can change the NDF logs to DF by selecting all clips in the bin, control click on the time in “Media In” column and select “Drop Frame” from the contextual menu.

[Dino Sanacory] “There however stands definite limits to what is possible in regards to how far back you can go. FCP 6 introduced XML v.4. FCP 5 covered XML v. 2 and 3. Depending how far back you want to go will require giving up more and more functionality, compatibility, and stability.”
Absolutely. I’m my personal experience opening a FCP6 project in 5 via xml v3 work great for a basic cuts and transitions project. I think as XML matures it will be equal to or better than Avid’s paradigm mainly because of XML’s ability to translate into non-FCP products (Like FMP if I can ever figure that one out.

[Dino Sanacory] “Newer projects never open in older versions of the software.”
Not accurate. If the project is exported (in the newer version of FCP) as xml; you can import into the older version. Now I have never done this with a very complicated project (ie many layers, effects, etc). So far I have seen exact translation.
