Final Cut Pro X :: Send To Compressor - Share Grayed Out
Jun 5, 2014
I'm transitioning from FCP 7 and a Sony DV camera to FCP X and a Canon HD camera. I shot video of a dance performance in HD 1920 x 1080, 59.94P. I imported the AVCHD clips into FCP X with the copy media option. One clip is 1:26:57 (1 hr, 26 min ...) and the other is 1:21:43 long
When I used FCP 7 I created sub-clips for each dance before laying them down on the timeline. In this FCP X project I created compound clips off of the longer of the two AVCHD clips (the performance up to intermission), created a project named DVD 1 and moved the compound clips to the timeline and added titles.
If I follow my old workflow, the next step would be to send to Compressor and then import into DVD Studio Pro but I want to burn a simple DVD to check out how the titles look but when I try to send the project to Compressor the "Send to Compressor" and "Share" menu items are grayed out. If I select the original 1:26:57 AVCHD the options are also grayed out but if I select the slightly shorter 1:21:43 clip they are not. If I select any of the compound clips the option are also grayed out.

why I can't export my FCP 6 sequence using Compressor 3.0.5.
I have an hour-long 1080p Pro Res 422 sequence that I am trying to export using Compressor 3. Whether I export using the 'Pro Res 422' preset or the 'H.264' preset, transcoding commences but then stops abruptly 15 to 20 minutes later with an error message saying 'Quicktime Error: -50.'
For what it's worth, I have an early-2008 dual quad-core Mac Pro desktop with 6 GB of RAM and two ATI Radeon 5770 graphics cards. I am currently running OS X 10.6.8. The media (including Motion graphics) and project file are on an external drive connected via Firewire 800.
how to properly export this sequence at the highest quality without getting the error message

export from fcp 7 to compressor 3.5 took over 30 hrs. sequence was 95 min. 1920x1080 60i pro res 422. i did use the sharpen filter on the entire sequence. export was using the youtube setting (h.264) w/ same source size. i'm using a 2x2.8 ghz quad core intel xeon mac pro w/10 gb ram 4 x1tb hard drives. source files are on external fw 800 drive and i export internally to my hard drive. 30 hrs is ridiculous. i also tried first exporting sequence as a prores 422 same setting file. that took 20 hrs and then exporting that using the youtube setting which took another 15 hrs for a total of 35 hrs. what can i do to speed this up?

Making DVD, chapters from Final Cut Pro X to Compressor 4.1 do not fully transfer for the DVD menu. I can get the title of the chapters by clicking "include subtitles" but the associated picture for the chapter does not show (though it will on iDVD). So I have a boring menu with the words but not the picture. For example, one chapter is of Baltra, Galapagos. The island isn't shown though the chapter says, "Baltra"

When I try to open either of these 3 apps the system tells me they can't open because they are currently being updated. Software Update shows my system as needing no update. The last update that it shows was for ProApps Codecs v1.0.5. I am running a macbook pro / OS 10.9.3.
The manual download for that update, (ProApps Codecs v1.0.5), is a dead link, (URL....). I have one of the new black mac desktops with the exact same setup as my laptop. It's software updates list shows an update for the 3 apps I am having trouble opening on my laptop as having successfully installed. All 3 apps are working fine on the desktop system. How to either:
- trash my preferences on the laptop to force system update to reinstall the ProApps Codecs v1.0.5 update?
- fix the broken link at support.apple.com so I can manually install the ProApps Codecs v1.0.5 update?
- or perform some kind of Voodoo that will get my FCP, Motion, and Compressor opening again?

For some blasted reason the send button on Mail keeps getting greyed out. I try resetting from time machine backups. It will work for a few messages then become greyed out again.
When I used the Connection Doctor everything checks out as fine. My SMTP information is correct. As it has always worked in the past, works in Outlook, works in Entourage and cross checks as correct by multiple online sources and the ISP's customer service.
I have also repaired permissions.
Why would this button ever be designed to grey out in the first place? An error message after clicking would be better then a button that give no information at all.
Unfortunately this is a customers computer so I can't just swing by to check some more. The above listed steps are ones I went through before performing a time machine restore. Which worked for a while then the same problem occurred. Another Time Machine restore fixed it. Now the customer is having the same problem so I am trying to find another solution.

I've just updated to FCPX 10.1.3 and cannot get the "share" dialog to appear anymore. I've tried calling it up through the file menu, through Command-E and through the little share icon on the right. When attempting through file, the file menu disappears as if the command has been recognised, yet no dialogue appears. When attempting through the share button, there is not suggestion that even my click has been recognised, yet I am able to click "add destination" at the bottom.
I've tried opening up a new, blank project and adding a single, unaltered clip and get the same problem. As mentioned before, I'm running FCPX 10.1.3, on OSX 10.9.4. I've used FCP on my machine before (including exporting) with no problems.

I have been successfully been able to make several videos using Final Cut Pro X, about 12 already, and for some reason, it just doesn't want to anymore!!
I share the file via Apple Devices 1080p and i get that l title notification that says "Share successful" but the file doesn't show up at all! Normally, they pop up at the Home Videos folder deep inside the iTunes folder thingo. They're not anywhere on this mac.

So ive been having alot of trouble with rendering a 6 minute video on Final Cut Pro X.
I go to file, share, and use HD 1080p, the video gets about 25% through when this error comes ups:
and then when i click on 'details' this comes up:
Ive looked up this problem and I cannot find a solution, I've tried doing whatever i can think of like copy and pasting it all into a different project and trying that, creating a new event and pasting it into a project there, ive tried turning off App Nap too.
Also, all throughout editing this actual video i kept running out of disk space and alot of errors would come up, so when this error came up i thought it might be that and i deleted alot of things i didnt need and cleared out my trash but it hasnt made a difference.

I have created a project, but when I chose "Share," all of the options are greyed out.
I have the project active in the timeline, but it still isn't allowing any "Share" option.
Other projects in the browser allow me to share with all of the choices seemingly available.

So I just got a new AppleTV for Christmas. I started saving my movies to my computer/iTunes. Tried Casino Royale with RipIt and it turned out great. However since then I've tried Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring (the extended edition) several different times and I just haven't gotten it to work.
Tried it with RipIt and it flat out didn't work. Didn't even result in a playable format. Tried Handbrake and the audio drops out completely 3/4 of the way through side A of the movie. Tried ripping it via MakeMKV then converting it to an AppleTV friendly format through Handbrake and the video turned out horrible. Then I tried ripping it via Mac The Ripper and then compressing via Handbrake it and once again the audio drops out completely. Is there any other way to get the extended edition of Lord of the Rings into iTunes with good video quality and not having the audio dropout problems?

I bought FCPX and Compressor because all my Kool-aid drinking Mac friends said you have to have this to edit (former Avid user). Learning as I go and I am very impressed with the FCPX software from where I came from.
However, I don't see anyway to make chaptered menus in Compressor 4? Really??? I know DVDs are not the future but they are sure the present right now. What they currently use to get a project off the timeline and into a chaptered DVD that I can duplicate and hand to people.....

Having just upgraded the FCP suite to the latest (4.1.2 for Compressor) I've run into a bug that has been affecting other users in earlier versions, e.g.: Compressor 4.1.1 crashes when trying to create custom setting from scratch..Basically I run Compressor, and choose the "New Setting..." option under the lower left drop-down menu.
I get a spinning beach ball, then the app crashes.I've tried a full reinstall of the app after deleting it and it's associated preferences and app support files. I've also logged in under a clean new user account and the same thing happens, so it must be some issue on a system level.
The only workaround I've found from another thread is to duplicate an existing setting and modify it from there. But clearly it would be better if it didn't crash. For those who might be interested in the details, here is the crash log:
Process: Compressor [710]
Path: /Applications/Compressor.app/Contents/MacOS/Compressor
Identifier: com.apple.Compressor
Version: 4.1.2 (249189)
Build Info: Compressor-24918009038000000~1

Am I able to copy the Compressor App (part of the final cut pro suite) to another Computer with a legitimate serial? It's only on one computer at present but I'd like to transfer it to another computer as it only has DVD Studio Pro and FCP - no compressor.
Can I just copy the Icon onto a HD and past it onto the other computer or will I have to copy all the files associated with it too?

Running 4.1.3 with FCPX and Send to Compressor has all of the distributed processing groups greyed out in the selection drop down. I can only run compressor on This Computer.
If I export the file from FCPX and then drop that into Compressor from the finder it works fine. Is there a reason it is not working when directly connected?
I have deleted and reinstalled both apps but get the same results.
