What do you think....does this need a part 2? What other problems would you say come up the most when using Final Cut? For those looking to solve problem 4 👉🏼 geni.us/LibraryManager
Hi, thanks for the video. Every time I press a specific project, the spinning wheel appears and I need to force quit. Only one project does like that, how to reaccess it?
MANNNNNN, I've always wanted to know how to collapse audio. Lol. This has enriched my life so much! You have no idea!!! Thank you! Also, part 2 is needed. I'm learning a lot.
Thank you thank you thank you! Was absolutely pulling my hair out trying to sort out why one video wouldn't upload from my SD card, and what that little video icon meant in the corner of the clip in my library! This sorted it and I'm SO GRATEFUL!
When my audio disappears, I just pause and play and it pops back up. Now that I am more knowledgable from trial and error, this didn't help me BUT it would have saved me a lot of headache 5 years ago before I knew what I was doing. I find this super informative and QUICK for those having these problems. I like fast and to the point so I will subscribe because I'm the first to admit I don't know EVERYTHING LOL and I can always be better and learn more! loved the video!
Awesome! And that's great you admit that you still have stuff to learn because we all do. There is always more we can learn. Thanks so much for the kind words and the sub 😊🙏
Dylan, the shortcut for undoing compounds is the one that's new to me. I'll be using it, as I often build compounds and sometimes I need to undo them. Thanks for the tip.
BRAH! a tutorial on how to do that intro, adding ourselves to the frame that double stuntman is dopeness. Another great episode. Mahalos Brother. ALOHA🤙🏾
Haha maybe I'll do that one soon. Just look up how to 'clone yourself' in Final Cut Pro and you should be golden 🤘 Thanks so much my friend! Aloha!! 🤙🏼
Thanks for making this video. Your tutorial on how to relink videos made my night a lot better. I thought my entire project was screwed. Now it's all back to how it was. I slept better last night thanks to you! :)
Thanks my dude! 👊😄 Lol nerd Dylan won't be appearing on my channel (not yet at least). It's for a tutorial for mTutorial on MotionVFX's channel. It's not out yet, but I think you'll get a kick out of the tutorial once it's up.
@@dylanjohndickerson Awesome! I’ll keep an eye out for it. But I think I speak on behalf of the people when I say, we want Nerd Dylan on the channel! 😂
Super useful! Thank you! I didn't know the shortcut for zooming to fit or that you could easily break apart compound clips like that. That adjustment you made around 1:00 with how the audio transitions/fades was cool too. I didn't know about that. Same thing with how to easily get out of that precision editor without reloading your video project or restarting FCP, lol.
Another great tutorial! So helpful! I would definitely appreciate a part 2... One of the issues I had is moving clips when they are attached to audio or another video clip... Thank you! 🙏
watching the video made me do my own troubleshooting and i cant thank you enough for the hours you have saved for me today👍. Thank you so much for the video
Good video! I came here because the audio clip I dragged on to my timeline, turned grey and wasn't audible. I logged out and in and it was resolved but, I would like to know what the solution (and the problem) is.
I recorded an interview using Ecamm Live and am trying to edit it in Final Cut Pro. The picture quality of the video is great in 4K, but it’s so laggy and choppy (dropped frames?) that it’s hard to watch.I set my mic delay to 6 and it doesn’t appear as though the sound is off, it’s the video lagging’s. Do you know if there’s a way to repair this footage in FCP?
Premiere User here: Problem 1 - I saw this by accident. But why do you need to separate the audio track? Not sure of the purpose other than edit the audio levels. Problem 5 - Again, by accident I discovered this. It's really good one!
You don't need to separate the audio track, but if you're inserting a clip above the primary storyline into the storyline, maybe for the purposes of using the magnetic timeline, then it allows you to keep the audio already in the primary storyline and the clip you're inserting. Basically giving you J / L cuts while condensing everything to the primary storyline.
Hey Dylan - again :D Love the content which is helping me acclimatize to FCP, so much appreciated :D Will definitely be editing off external SSDs from now on :D
Hi Dylan, great videos. I have an issue using final cut pro, since I've installed Ventura... there's a wedding project that now is having a all the clips shooted using the LUMIX camera, are glitchy and jumpy (like a jump cut). Did you have some similar problem? Do you know how to fix it? Thank you in advance
Hey Pietro! That's odd. Unfortunately, I don't know the answer to that question as that's never a problem I've had. Try transcoding the media to either optimized media or proxy media and see if that fixes it.
@@dylanjohndickerson I was told is a problem that Ventura is experiencing with the Panasonic codec. Maybe they have to update the operating system or maybe there’s something to download to make it work. Still don’t know.
love your explanations and tutorials. im still having a problem. when i click file to import my footage my " re import from archive" option is greyed out. im just able to use it. any solutions !
Awesome video Dylan! Learned a ton from this! One problem I always have with my videos is sometimes my clip has a little glitch and shows up in the video. Not sure what or why but would love to learn how to fix that if you had any tips
@@dylanjohndickerson it definitely could be, cause I do notice it when I put on a like zoom translation or blur effect and sometimes when I use final cuts fade out. What I found to work rarely is I just do a blade cut on the spot where it’s glitching and it sometimes takes it away but then other times puts the glitch in another spot😂😪🤦♂️
Hell ya! Glad to hear it Dawson ✌Interesting. I haven't had that happen to me. It could be a variety of reasons though so I'm not sure if I can help much. 🤔If you can give me a little more info, maybe I could find an answer.
@@dylanjohndickerson I’ll shoot you an example video through insta DM! I appreciate the help brotha!🤘 Also binge watched your color grading videos, I had no idea there was that much time spent in colors! Makes a major difference
That of the shift command g is very useful for me! I have a problem, Dylan. Just a moment ago I wanted to move a clip by a second and to do so I removed the two initial and final transitions. It is an isolated clip (there is nothing before or after). Now when I try to put the transitions back, it doesn't do anything. He does not tell me that there is not enough extra media. He just doesn't add them. Even if he offers me the "undo add transition" option. This is the first time this has happened to me. And it happens with any new clips I add. I just updated to the latest version of Final Cut.🤔🤨
This never happens except for now. My timeline rendered my normal vertical clips and strunk some of them while leaving others at full vertical specs. Now it looks like i have a picture in a picture. How do I fix this?
Figured out the problem to my previous post. Looks like I am having a 32 bit float file problem. Once I re-output my audio into a more usual format I didn't have the problem. Others are not have 32 bit float issues, not sure what that's about.
Great video but did not answer this question. I have this black screen show up in my Projects. Not all but some and yikes I cannot access all I had already edited. It looks just like the black box example you have in 2:14. Problem: 3 Importing Issue . How can I get that problem fixed? I am losing my mind!! Thanks
Awesome video bro 😎 learned a lot. My most common problem is weird timeline clips not magnetically connecting because of a voiceover audio timeline that should be the main timeline but FCPX doesn't want it to. It's so frustrating for me honestly, maybe I'm missing something.
@@dylanjohndickerson I have recommended your channel to my boss. he is the admin of final cut vietnam. We have a post room on our side that I hope the translation will end, so I can invite you over to play to learn more experience
I enjoy these problem solving videos. Most of the problems you mention, I have ran into :) but that is part of the learning proces. They will occur again, some day, haha. Thanks for making and sharing this video, @Dylan! On problem #4: Since a couple of weeks I do my editing on a Samsung T7 Touch SSD. Love the speed. Finished projects will be moved to another location. PS how are you, curfew lifted by now?
My pleasure Gert! Thanks for commenting 😊 I think I may pick up a T7 in the near future. Apparently it's twice as fast as the T5.... And no, unfortunately not.

Hey Dylan. So I just had the weirdest thing happen. I just finished an edit and the video rendered and I went to go watch it back before uploading it to UA-cam and it had almost 25 minutes of blank space at the end of it from where I cut up the A role to make the final edit from. Everything else was fine. The B role was where it should be and everything else, it just rendered all that blank space so I ended up having to create a new library and go into what should’ve been the master and just cut that out and re-render it because as I suspected would happen when I tried to do it from the original timeline, there was nothing there to delete .Do you have any idea what I did wrong so I can keep that from happening again? That’s never happened to me before in all the years that I’ve been editing. It literally doesn’t make any sense. 🤷♂️
Problem 6 happens to me all the time. Like every project. Thought it was just loading. I usually just wait a little and or zoom in/out. Annoying since I often sync audio watching the transients.
Multicam Multicam Multicam .. pls make a advanced video on multiculturalism editing and troubleshooting different issues during multicam editing in FCPX
Hi. I am having an issue but not sure if you have the answer. FCPX was running fine. But one day whenever I start fcpx, mac restarts. It is working fine otherwise. I searched the net and did few things like delete preferences, created new user and tried, uninstalled fcpx and reinstalled. Nothing is working. Any idea what could be the issue?
Does anyone experienced problems with the auto tracker? For me it doesn’t work properly enough. I don‘t get precise results especially when trying to track an object by a title. HELP
I have another very annoying issue: when I start a project I can hover on my clips and hear and see them playing while hovering on them with my mouse, but the function disappears after a few hours editing. The mouse won't playback the clips while hovering on them! Why???
Hi, am Ahmad from nigeria am using final cut pro x 10, I was editing but when my final cut went off am try to opened my project it did not opened when I click on the project the final cut is close any time I try it just went off, how could I fix it?, thank you.
after masking when we scroll with cursor it shows in the preview of the edits. but when we play video it don't shows the mask edit. please help me thanks>
Hey Dylan, I thought the video was great but I am a rank beginner and my problem wasn't covered in this one. I think however what I'm experiencing might just be a glitch in the software so I'm going to quit and restart my computer. I'm creating a video with lots of clips and still photos from a vacation. I can see everything in the browser but when I try to drag them to the timeline, everything just snaps back to the browser window. They won't "stick" to the timeline! Thanks again though...I will be watching more of your videos!
Have you ever seen this Error message "You are combining audio and video clips outside the primary storyline"? I was attempting to copy all my clips and paste them into a new project timeline. Every time I attempt to copy all the project files this error pops up. Any help is appreciated, thanks!
My Macs fan keeps coming on and my max will just randomly shut off while I’m editing. I’ve replaced my hardrive to a ss drive and I’m running i7 processor and 64 gigs of ram.
Currently Final Cut is stuck exporting at 0% I’ve lost track of how many times I’ve restarted my Mac to no avail. No clue what it could be. Plenty of space on harddrive, deleted the generated files etc.
My issue is the PROJECT is the one showing that it's missing but the clips in the project are all there....im stressed man...I need to finish these projects
Help me plz !!! Dylan I need to finish the project I edit fcpx library on my external ssd. I stored all of my clips in SSD and edit in SSD. But Spinning Wheel doesn't appear when a little clips is imported in an event. But when I imported a lots of clips, Spinning Wheels appears everytime I touch something to edit. I tried these things: 1. Delete System preferences ( It can work sometimes not everytime) 2. copy clips to library and create proxy media ( It took a lot of time and copying clips to folder increase my ssd storage) The problem is I don't know which is the real problem. When I do ( leave files in place) and create proxy media. It still appear spinning wheel. I desn't understand why ( copy to library and proxy) doesn't cause spinning wheel and ( leave files and creating proxy) cause spinning. There's a difference between ( leave and copy) . I close other apps when I use FCPX just not to overload Ram 8gb. I tried a lots of solitions from UA-cam. But I don't know which is the real problem. Plz help me. I need to finish the project within this week. Spec: Macbook Air Ram 8gb ( 2020 intel) SSD:1TB ( 500gb free Space)
Does anybody else have the problem where - while editing the viewer box just kind of "blacks out" and won't display your project??? It will let me play (Events) at the top - I can click on one and play it and the viewer shows it... but the actual projects won't display. I've uninstalled FCP and reinstalled... and that seems to clear it up (for awhile) - then after a few days it blanks out again. It only recently started doing this; it wasn't doing this last year. Any ideas?? 🤔
After installing mTracker Areas plug in, it did not work, both mTracker 3D and the new mTracker Areas. After several uninstallations and re-installations, FCP prefs deleted the problem persists : the Track button does not initiate the tracking analysing. I will have to delete completely and re-install FCP…..:-(
The protective shell that you are using at 2:35 will damage your laptop, stop using it! Heat will not dissipate properly, your battery will go bust in no time.
I'm having a ram issue. Final cut is saying not enough ram. Now I have a Mac mini pro max with 128GB of ram. I am not missing ram. Final cut says it's using over 180GB of ram when it gives me the error. This is a crazy problem. I watched your video and am turning off background renders and clearing caches. But this should not be happening. Any idea would be gratefully received.
Hey Bryant! Usually it's an issue with a plugin or some title, template, or effect on your timeline. I'd make a snapshot of your project, go through and start deleting things, and see what fixes it. Then go back to your original project and delete that.
My issue is that final cut stops playing back the timeline sometimes. It is not crashed as I can do what ever I would normally do while editing, it is just not playing back. The playback button is also looking like it is playing back but it is not and nothing moves.. Only solution I know by far is to close and reopen final cut, but that takes time and feels stupid.
@@dylanjohndickerson I have a M1 mac and there's nothing too CPU-heavy on the timeline, just added a LUT on a 4k footage. It has been working properly before this. Don't know that is going on. I think someone else had this issue too when I googled it.
hi bro i am a video editor from india. and i have a one problem but its not getting solve i traied lot ways but it didnt. sony z150. video camera file is going full black screenn in final cut pro. if u have any idea give me some solution pleas its almost irritating since 6 years pleas respong

Yup yup. It seems like it's happening more often too.
I think I just got died from laughter at that intro. My man! 👊🏾
Glad I got a laugh out of you brotha! 👊🏼
@@dylanjohndickerson The T5 external drives have been a life saver for me. It’s so much faster & better editing off it than from my iMac’s hard drive.
@@toyinosi Oh ya! It's the way to go man.
Cool . Thank you

Brother i have one problem in fcpx my external hard disk is not showing in final cut pro how to fix this problem
What if it still says "import failed" after going through "reimport from camera/archive"??
Hi. I am having an issue but not sure if you have the answer. FCPX was running fine. But one day whenever I start fcpx, mac restarts. It is working fine otherwise. I searched the net and did few things like delete preferences, created new user and tried, uninstalled fcpx and reinstalled. Nothing is working. Any idea what could be the issue?
Does anyone experienced problems with the auto tracker? For me it doesn’t work properly enough. I don‘t get precise results especially when trying to track an object by a title.
HELP
These tips might help, but the built in tracker is not great

I have another very annoying issue: when I start a project I can hover on my clips and hear and see them playing while hovering on them with my mouse, but the function disappears after a few hours editing. The mouse won't playback the clips while hovering on them! Why???
Hi, am Ahmad from nigeria am using final cut pro x 10, I was editing but when my final cut went off am try to opened my project it did not opened when I click on the project the final cut is close any time I try it just went off, how could I fix it?, thank you.
after masking when we scroll with cursor it shows in the preview of the edits. but when we play video it don't shows the mask edit. please help me thanks>
Hey Dylan, I thought the video was great but I am a rank beginner and my problem wasn't covered in this one. I think however what I'm experiencing might just be a glitch in the software so I'm going to quit and restart my computer. I'm creating a video with lots of clips and still photos from a vacation. I can see everything in the browser but when I try to drag them to the timeline, everything just snaps back to the browser window. They won't "stick" to the timeline! Thanks again though...I will be watching more of your videos!
Very odd, Angela. I've never had that happen. You started a new project and everything?
need help why cursor is not going automatically near mark in
fcp
when I try to reimport from camera archives it won't let me??
Have you ever seen this Error message "You are combining audio and video clips outside the primary storyline"? I was attempting to copy all my clips and paste them into a new project timeline. Every time I attempt to copy all the project files this error pops up. Any help is appreciated, thanks!
Wow that's weird 🤔 I've never seen that.
My Macs fan keeps coming on and my max will just randomly shut off while I’m editing. I’ve replaced my hardrive to a ss drive and I’m running i7 processor and 64 gigs of ram.
I am experiencing vanishing waveforms and it's so irritating. Hope exiting and coming back works
Nice utorrent logo in the menu bar 😉
🤫😉
Currently Final Cut is stuck exporting at 0% I’ve lost track of how many times I’ve restarted my Mac to no avail. No clue what it could be. Plenty of space on harddrive, deleted the generated files etc.
My issue is the PROJECT is the one showing that it's missing but the clips in the project are all there....im stressed man...I need to finish these projects
Happy to hear that 😊 thanks for watching!
Help me plz !!! Dylan
I need to finish the project
I edit fcpx library on my external ssd. I stored all of my clips in SSD and edit in SSD. But Spinning Wheel doesn't appear when a little clips is imported in an event. But when I imported a lots of clips, Spinning Wheels appears everytime I touch something to edit.
I tried these things:
1. Delete System preferences ( It can work sometimes not everytime)
2. copy clips to library and create proxy media ( It took a lot of time and copying clips to folder increase my ssd storage)
The problem is I don't know which is the real problem. When I do ( leave files in place) and create proxy media. It still appear spinning wheel. I desn't understand why ( copy to library and proxy) doesn't cause spinning wheel and ( leave files and creating proxy) cause spinning. There's a difference between ( leave and copy) . I close other apps when I use FCPX just not to overload Ram 8gb. I tried a lots of solitions from UA-cam. But I don't know which is the real problem.
Plz help me. I need to finish the project within this week.
Spec: Macbook Air Ram 8gb ( 2020 intel)

Does anybody else have the problem where - while editing the viewer box just kind of "blacks out" and won't display your project??? It will let me play (Events) at the top - I can click on one and play it and the viewer shows it... but the actual projects won't display. I've uninstalled FCP and reinstalled... and that seems to clear it up (for awhile) - then after a few days it blanks out again. It only recently started doing this; it wasn't doing this last year. Any ideas?? 🤔
After installing mTracker Areas plug in, it did not work, both mTracker 3D and the new mTracker Areas. After several uninstallations and re-installations, FCP prefs deleted the problem persists : the Track button does not initiate the tracking analysing. I will have to delete completely and re-install FCP…..:-(
The protective shell that you are using at 2:35 will damage your laptop, stop using it! Heat will not dissipate properly, your battery will go bust in no time.
Oh no way. I didn’t know that. Thanks for the tip!
I'm having a ram issue. Final cut is saying not enough ram. Now I have a Mac mini pro max with 128GB of ram. I am not missing ram. Final cut says it's using over 180GB of ram when it gives me the error. This is a crazy problem. I watched your video and am turning off background renders and clearing caches. But this should not be happening. Any idea would be gratefully received.
Hey Bryant! Usually it's an issue with a plugin or some title, template, or effect on your timeline. I'd make a snapshot of your project, go through and start deleting things, and see what fixes it. Then go back to your original project and delete that.
My issue is that final cut stops playing back the timeline sometimes. It is not crashed as I can do what ever I would normally do while editing, it is just not playing back. The playback button is also looking like it is playing back but it is not and nothing moves.. Only solution I know by far is to close and reopen final cut, but that takes time and feels stupid.
That is interesting. It could be that your computer can't handle the footage?
@@dylanjohndickerson I have a M1 mac and there's nothing too CPU-heavy on the timeline, just added a LUT on a 4k footage. It has been working properly before this. Don't know that is going on. I think someone else had this issue too when I googled it.

When I upload my video to UA-cam it doesn’t fit the whole entire UA-cam screen can u help
A 'please' would be nice 😄 I am human after all. So when you export your project, does the actual video fit the whole video playing window on your desktop? (not on YT)
@@dylanjohndickerson please lol I’m sorry I’m frustrated ive been trying to fix this all day and no it doesn’t
@@lifeoftyanna2457 When you're in Final Cut Pro, does your video fit the viewport playback window? Or is there black around it?
@@dylanjohndickerson yes it fits it that’s why I’m confused
@@dylanjohndickerson I figured out I had to put it in 1920 1080 but that means I’ll have to film in hd but I filmed in 2k
I locked the timeline somehow. I can't expand or shrink the timeline.

A buggish software. Apple really f.up the software.
SLOW DOWN
Agreed! This was before I got my pacing right 😅 You can go to the gear icon on the video and change the playback speed to be slower if you'd like more of a slower paced video.
