After upgrading to macOS Ventura 13.4 when I'm in Final Cut my Slow motion footage is all black screen.
Also doesn't play in Quick time.
But it does play in VLC
this is all Mp4 footage from a Sony FX3
Does anyone have the same issue???
I have a M2 MacBook Pro and everything Is up to date
Note: On Sony media, this bug only affects 10-bit 4:2:2 XAVC-S at 100 or 120 fps. It does NOT affect 10-bit 4:2:2 XAVC-HS at 100 or 120 fps. I believe all Sony cameras that can shoot the XAVC-S codec at that bit depth and chroma subsampling can also shoot the XAVC-HS variant.
On Apple Silicon Macs, the XAVC-HS version seems to run smoother and there is no quality loss.
For existing XAVC-S material with those parameters, the only solution is transcoding or downgrading to Ventura 13.3.1(a). But for all new material, shooting XAVC-HS could be an immediate solution.
Although the problem has been most widely reported on this XAVC-S variant, it seems to exist on some other codecs such as DJI 5k 10-bit 4:2:0 H-264at 23.98 and 29.97 fps.

I've lost 7 hours on this so far. Finished a filming project which has a fast turnaround requirement, and it's been a nightmare trying to figure out what was wrong. This is ridiculous, I cannot believe apple would make such a F'up! I have to downgrade to Monterey
Same issue. Super frustrating. Many projects now needing to be either scrapped or changed drastically. I feel for others impacted and have no way of recovering their work/clips. So is the only option to roll back software? PAIN.
I'm having the same exact same issue on with M1 Max MacBook Pro. I have ben able to continue working with the footage on my iPadPro via Luma Fusion and CapCut though. It works but I would much rather be in FCPX.
I'm having the same problem with Prores Raw clips shot at 60fps in 1080p from my Nikon Z6. Unfortunately I can't tell if it was from the OS update or the FCPX update. If anyone knows the fix I would love to hear it.
happens to me as well. we need this fixed asap
Other XAVC formats seem to work with 100 and 120 fps in joema's testing. XAVC-HS HEVC 10-bit seems to work. I would prefer that format anyway rather than XAVC-S.
Do you know of a way to get a specific version on an OS? I’ve been using MDS, but it’s becoming a subscription service.
No. Only the ones shown in the link.
I guess that’s always the current version.
Yes but you can download Monterey (assuming your Mac is not too new) and assuming that the update last week didn't introduce the same bug . . .
I don't know whether this is a reputable source or not as I have never used them.
Thanks. A separate not volume is sufficient. Of you’re using the same Apple ID you can access the user the content in the primary volume.
Is it solved?
i have the same problem...
