If you’re running FCS, it should already be installed. It’s part of the suite. Not sure with the older versions but it should be there.

Do you have stills on this timeline? Are they large files that exceed 72dpi and are larger than your actual project?FCP doesn’t like that. I recommend resizing them with Photoshop (or similar) and making exporting as .png files and only slighty larger than your timelines frame size if that’s the case.
If not, something in your timeline is wonky.

Check out Digital Juice! They have three volumes of EFX collections that are awesome and very pro. Not to mention that they have FREE juicer software that allows search, preview, and export at any rate or file type you desire.
Right now (until midnight or when they run out) they have volume 1 on sale for $99!!! Thousands of sounds in each volume including music and things like that.
Worth a look for sure. They put the different volumes on sale all the time. https://www.digitaljuice.com

This sounds kinda like a problem I had a while back. Before I understood that I had to use the render manager to delete renders properly, I was trying to free up some space on my media drive and deleted a bunch of renders from old projects directly in Finder. Well, I also deleted a few that I thought I didn’t need anymore from a project for a national spot that needs reworking from time to time.
The next time I opened that spots project, it had a dialog for trying to “find movie data…” for a couple of specific render files. These were the ones I deleted directly inside finder, because I didn’t use the shots in the final and fiigured I didn’t need the renders anymore at the time. It would keep looking for them and never find them. Even if I opened a completely different project. It would give me the option to search or them but never to forget them. A completely different kind of dialog box from the usual “media offline” dialog.
Long story short, after Apple support, the Cow, and many other things, I deleted the info in thumbnail cache and the problem went away. Until I had to open that project again the other day 🙂 Now, every time I have to work on that project, I do what I have to do and then close FCP and delete the thumbnail cache so I’m straight next time I open FCP. Figuring that partticular project has a quirk in it now but I can live with it as it’s a big client.
Just offering that as a look at a quirk that no one has ever been able to solve and why you should always do things the proper way. Take care.

Not sure why that particular filter isn’t working correctly but you may try doing the adjustment in the motion tab (rotation) and if you have more than one clip like this in your timeline, just copy the first one you adjusted, then “paste attributes” to the others. Just a thought!

I have the MXO2 and absolutely LOVE it! Anything I’m the MXO2 family is what I’d recommend.

Have you tried doing the bug in compressor when you transcode for DVD?
