compressor error: absolute frame

I get that there could be corruption causing this, what I don't get is how the frame causing it changes and not always further into the file. Makes no sense to me as the frame in questions bounces around. Could it be a compressor issue? Running version 4.6

Missing Plug-in error message when compressing video to Apple Compressor from FCPX Hello! I use FCPX for editing videos.I use Apple Compressor to compress the file and convert it to a MP-4 file ready for my YouTube channel. Here's the issue...I deleted FCPX & Apple Compressor and reloaded them both. I do not believe there is anything wrong with the software as I have done many tests with them. Same old error message " Missing Plug-in" every time. Don't understand it as the very last video I did was 3 weeks ago. Please ....is there someone who can help a senior citizen who lives in Florida? Thanks!!

Flashing Green Glitching Artifacts after export Hey everyone, Have tried everything from Deleting Consolidated Clip Files to Reinstalling and still same issue. Started randomly one day and has affected every export from every project since. This does not seem to affect projects where there is only one layer of video and audio, but of course this is rare for the kind of work I do. Here is a small clip of what the glitch looks like: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M95FgtD88LA As you can see the clips are completely unusable after export. Any help at all would be appreciated. Basically can not export or finish anything I edit and I'm going crazy. Best Anthony

A Non-Existent Background Rendering Issue I have a few clips in the time line that I have speeded up and have chosen the Machine Learning retime quality setting. Every time I export this time line, I get this error message: However, if I cancel this and open the Background Tasks window, there is nothing going on. If I choose CONTINUE, the exported file is fine, and the speeded up scenes play properly in high quality. What's going on here?

This helps me occasionally when Compressor goes wonky.

Settings > Advanced > Reset Queue

Do this twice. The first time to "Cancel jobs" and the second time to "Repair Compressor". If that doesn't work, tell us what the codec and/or source of the video file is.

Thanks for your suggestion, sadly didn't resolve it. Codec is H.264, MPEG-4 AAC, it was a QuickTime screen recording
