Every time I open FCP X, this box appears and asks me to choose a FCP library I know that if I hold the Option key when starting FCP X, this box will appear, but I don't. I did try to delete preferences of FCP X, even reinstalled (on my old laptop, I got this for a few months now). What is...

I'm starting out on the long journey of learning to edit videos to a professional standard and also learning to code with the end goal being able to create professional level mobile apps and websites. A few friends and I have a lot of idea's of thing's we want to create however I have a dilemma...

Hi all, I'm on the brink of buying a new Macbook pro 15" 2016, and I'm trying to decide which configuration will work best for performance in FCPX. The maxed out version (best cpu and best gpu) is too much for my budget, so I'm wondering which upgrade, either better cpu or better gpu, will have...

Hello!! I have been a video editor for many years, most of them without my own machine. A couple years ago I bought my roommates upgraded late '09 27" iMac and it has been time to upgrade for a while. I pulled the trigger on a new 5K iMac with 4.0 GHz QC i7, 8GB RAM (2x4GB), M395X 4GB, and the...

If powering any of the dual cards isn't an issue (planning to externally power them,) which pair would be better suited for fcpx? With prices of used 390x going pretty low around my area, I can buy two of them cheaper than what i've bought 2 rx 480 8GB for. Im currently running dual rx 480 on my...

I am mostly working with FCP X 10.3 and Da Vinci Resolve 12.5. So I need very good graphic power. My Mac Pro 3.1 (16 MB, Radeon HD 5770, NVidia Q 4000) is no longer sufficient... and I can't even upgrade to Sierra OS X 10.3 now... I have these offers now: - Mac Pro 2016 (6.1) - 2.7GHz 12 Core -...

Going to be a first time mac user with a 2016 MBP with a 2 TB SSD and would like some direction on the best practices for having my video files backed up in a couple places while also making video editing as efficient as possible. I need to be able to manage about 150GB of new video/photo files...

I've updated my library to 10.3 (as prompted by FCPX when updating) and now one of my old projects has tons of missing clips and such. It was perfectly fine before the update, and I don't actually have a backup of that project... Has anyone else encountered something like this or know a way...

Howdy folks, I updated Final Cut Pro X to 10.3 yesterday. For the first launch, it opened and prompted me to update the library for the new version. I hit accept, it took a few seconds, and opened as usual (with the new enhanced interface). Now, each time I launch Final Cut, I get this...

Thinking about purchasing FCP from the app store for $299, but I noticed how this version has been out for a while now. A little hesitant to buy, as a new one may be just around the corner and need to shell out money again. Have there been any plans on a newer version that others have heard...

Hello all! I've been experiencing a hard crash resulting from using the FilmConvert plugin in FCPX and I'm pretty sure it's related to the NVIDIA Web Driver and my GTX 980. When I drop the effect on the footage in the timeline for the first time, it loads, then the computer starts pinwheeling...

Just wanted to know if anyone has noticed any bugs/issues running FCPX in Sierra. I use FCPX for work so would only upgrade from El Cap, if FCPX ran fine... Thanks!

Hey guys, I've been thinking about getting a used Mac Pro. I could hackintosh but I've gone that route and for some reason, haven't been able to get it to work again on my PC. I don't know. Maybe a bios update on my motherboard bricked it for me or maybe upgrading it Windows 10 did it. But...

resolved

Best workflow for quality? I mean, if you are working with cinemaDNG you need resolve to transcode it first before FCPX can use it correct? But if you are working with RED footage, there is the RED plugin to import directly into FCPX. Which would be edit first, grade second, then final Export...

So I recently upgraded to two Flashed MSI Twin Frozr R9 280x's in my 2010 Mac Pro from a single OEM 5870. I was mainly looking to improve render and export times in FCPX, and I went with Dual R9's because the chip architecture in the R9 280x is very similar to the D700 Firepros in the nMP...

I've created my project in FCPX and I've used the (very limited) DVD authoring tool in FCPX to create the .img DVD file. Works great, no issues. Now I'd like to add a data folder to the DVD to include stuff like photos, additional videos at higher resolution, etc. The intent is for the person...

So, yep, that is exactly what happened. I wanted to buy a Mac Pro for my 4k editing needs. I nursed my 2009 Mac Pro 4,1 for 7 years, upgrading the RAM, the video card, constantly changing out hard drives as my needs dictated, loving the configurability and reliability of that machine. But it was...

A few weeks ago i had the opportunity to borrow a friends Macbook and update my database in terms of Video Editing performance. Altough it is not the machine i would suggest for this kind of work, there is some areas where it actually is capable, specially using FCPX. Tests were done in Adobe...
