Re: FCPX won't inport .mov

Hi Trig,

So you have one video file on your timeline under the opening title that shows 'missing'. When you re-import the file does the clip only shows 'missing' in the timeline or does it also show offline in the clip browser ? If it is okay in the clip browser you can replace the bad clip on the timeline with the good clip.

Best wishes,

Ronny

Ronny, it show as missing in the browser. Three other clips from the same AVCHD camera show up ok, and this one originally showed ok when I first edited it.

The strange thing is, I made a movie of the 1 minute clip over my old MacPro from the AVCHD card, brought it over to the new MacPro, and when I bring it into the browser, it automatically replaces the original clip that has been deleted from the browser. And it shows up as missing.

I ended up opening a new project, bringing it in, then copying the opening from the old timeline into the new, creating a new opener. Took it over to FCP7 and fixed it.

So, the project is done.

I do believe it was all due to my lack of understanding the file structure when I originally built the project. Learning as we go.

Thanks, Trig
