Try resetting Compressor.


Launch Compressor, go to the Preferences, to Advance, click the Reset Queue button, then choose Cancel All Jobs. Click the Reset Queue button again, this time select Repair Compressor. Reboot your Mac. See if that helps. I may, it may not, but give it a try, it's East enough to do.

This weeks video worked share worked!


  1. I managed to free 72 gigs. on my 2017 13" MacBook Pro 3.1 GHz, 250 gig SSD.
  2. I shared the video to my hard drive successfully.
  3. The MacBook would not burn the dvd ( I have the latest Mojave os and FCPX update, that's when my problem started) :-(
  4. I have a shared desk top! My work iMac WAS able to burn the dvd, less ram bigger HD, previous Mojave, and FCPX versions.
  5. DVD burned successfully!
  6. Not an elegant solution but it worked.

I was hopeful but this also failed.

I didn’t have this level of difficulty until I recently upgraded FVPX to 20.4.7.


This is my complete set up and problem:


FCPX DVD Sharing Error


I'm using FCPX (10.4.7) Mojave (10.14.6) on 2017 MacBook 16 gigs ram and 25 gigs free space on my HD. Verbatim 8x DVD+RL DVD on a Matshita DVD USB C external drive.


 I keep getting this  error message while trying to Share my 60 minute Church Project (the Library is  an a USB/Firewire 1 Terabyte OWC external HD). The process usually gets to about 55% when i get the following message. 


The operation couldn’t be completed. (com.apple.Compressor.CompressorKit.ErrorDomain error -1.)

Sharing to the Hard Drive also failed due to the same reason,


The operation could not be completed (com. apple.CompressorKit.ErrorDomainerror -1)


I did try burning to an Apple Super Drive before I tried the above, which also failed. (with the same message)


I have tried creating a new library, duplicating the project into the new library. I still can't get the DVD to burn.


I have also tried Compressor, which worked last week after I did my FCPX upgrade, but not this week.


My project is a 60 minute church service recored on Canon XF 100 Cameras with a Multi-Cam edit with audio sync.ed from Logic Pro X.


This has always worked before my FCPX upgrade to 10.4.7. I thought the upgrade would help my work flow, but that's not been the case
