My FCPX Keeps Crashing When Rendering and Exporting to Desktop

Hi Community,

For some odd reason after updating FCPX to 10.4 the application crashes when it goes over a certain limit. For example, when editing 4k footage, once I cross 5 mins on my timeline, the application keeps crashing. Disabling background rendering seemed to help by a moderate amount and reduced the occurrence of crashes (it still crashed every once in a while, though). At first, I thought it could be a RAM problem with the application crashing when it goes over, so I switched to 1080p but it still crashes when rendering. I doubt this is a problem with my specs though, as it's a Early 2015 MacBook Pro with 16GB RAM and 3.1 GHz Intel Core i7.

So far, I have tried:

• Deleting and redownloading the app
• Creating a new library just in case it's the library that's corrupted
• Editing in 1080p to reduce the amount of memory being used
• The newbie solution of restarting the computer

At this point it's getting really annoying and I paid $300 for this program that all of a sudden stopped working, so I'm not sure what to do anymore as Premiere Pro is just clunky and lacks a clean UI.

Thanks in Advance,

Gio
