Q: Getting error message "The share operation master file has failed" error occurred when creating farme ..... (error -1). Any idea why this happened? Using Apple pro res 422 format.
I am trying to share my film to put on idvd. I used the Apple Pro Res 422 setting before and it worked fine. This time I am getting the error message "The share operation master file has failed." an error occurred when creating frame ..... (error -1). Is this a bug? I am currently using the setting Apple Pro Res 422 LT, but it is taking forever to finish. Any idea of what is causing this problem?
Final Cut Pro X, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.3)

I fixed the problem. I followed a suggestion to change the timeline to frames rather than time and discovered that the frame that could not be written was one area of my project. When I scrubbed through it I noticed that the image flickered from image to black. When left stationary the black would become an image. This did not happen in any other part of my project. When I deleted this segment and replaced it with the same favorite, it still did the same thing. I recontructed the favorite clip and it still did the same thing. I copied the entire project and created a new project. I pasted the copy into the new project and the problem did not re-occur. I shared the project with pro res 422 without waiting to have the project rendered. It took a bit longer, but the project turned out fine.
I don't know if the rendering caused the bad segment or just a bad import. The funny thing was that when I copied and pasted the same project into a new created project --it worked fine.
