When I send a project from Final Cut Pro 10.7 to Compressor 4.7 on my 2023 16" M2 Max MacBook Pro, the completed video file gives me a "Missing Plugin" indicator where some broll clips should be.
If I export the identical project via Share>Export File, the exported project is fully intact.
This problem started happening prior to the software updates you released this week. See three attached images.
MacBook Pro 16″, macOS 14.1
I see on Chris's fcp dot cafe review of FCP 10.7, a bug when sending to Compressor with audio effects.
"Also, since at least Final Cut Pro 10.6.10, Send To Compressor doesn't correctly render any third-party audio effects."
Do you have any 3rd party audio effects applied?
No audio effects of any kind.
When it previously happened (before the latest FCP and Compressor updates) it was under the same scenario- a cut-way shot above the main timeline.
I looked to see if Compressor setting options changed. There's nothing that I can see. For the 15 years that I have been using FCP, Compressor will "compress" exactly what you send. The first time I experience this issue was about 4-5 weeks ago.
This is the first bug that I have experienced.
What are the exact specs of the B roll clips? What camera shot it? Are there any effects or LUTs or anything done to the clips?
It's a multi-cam project. I recorded those particular cut-away shots with an iPhone 8 Plus, and AirDropped them to the MacBook Pro. There are no effects. It has happened on a non multi-cam project.
Thank you for the link. I sent the feedback, including a link to this thread with the images I posted.
