no audio when importing

Does anyone know how I can solve this problem?

the original file is an mp4

this is not the first time this has happened, im new to FCP and somehow every time i try to import a new video the audio in it is either cut short or gone.


i've tried:

  • exiting FCP then opening it again
  • redownloading the original video
  • crtl+opt
  • turning "remove silent channel" off


maybe these screenshots could help you get an idea?

Right click a media file in the Finder.

Select Encode Selected Media Files:


Choose ProRes:


Import the ProRes file to FCP X and see if the audio works.
