So every time I create a video on FCP, I have no issue exporting the main clip in 4K
Issues always occur when I create a new project and copy some parts of the media from the previous project and turn it into reels/shorts format
I tried deleting/replacing sections of the error frame but the issue is not solved.
not sure if its about certain settings or what not
iPhone 13 Pro, iOS 17
Hi Tom,
Yes, I am working with vertical video, here's the complete spec:
My laptop: Macbook Pro Nov 2023 (M3), iOS Sonoma, 8 gb RAM
Here's the detail of how I usually complete my projects:
This is when the issue usually occurs... and it happens every time I create vertical videos >> this never happens with my standard 4K video despite the file being much larger
Thanks a lot in advance for your help
The error message is very explicit - it mentions an error in a specific file at a specific time.
Try deleting all render files.
If it still does not export, try to edit around that area.
Note: please use command-shift-4 and drag to take a screenshot. No need to use your phone, the screenshot is saved to your desktop by default. And our necks thank you 😎
thanks Luis, but this problem persists in all my projects
whenever I launch a new video, I create a new library with multiple projects. I usually start with my main youtube clip before proceeding to shorts/reels. This issue occurs every time when i start my new project to make reels/shorts.
I tried deleting render files and also fix specific frames, but does not solve.
sometimes it requires brute force for me to keep exporting until it works… which is very annoying
It’sa decode problem. What’s the codec you’re working with? Some codecs don’t scale well, some better than others, some computers do some things better than others. What’s the computer! What do you see at the point of the defect the process can’t decode?It’s a decode problem. What’s the codec you’re working with? Some codecs don’t scale well, some better than others.

Hi Tom,
My codec is Apple ProRes 422 and my computer is Macbook Pro Nov 2023 Model (8gb RAM) M3 chips
I don't see any defect at the point it cannot decode... it's just weird that it keeps occurring again and again with vertical videos
Switch off background rendering if it’s on. Delete render files. Reboot the system and post an EtreCheck report https://etrecheck.com giving the application Full Disk Access in Privacy & Security Sysyytem Settings. Copy the report and use the Add Text button to paste the result into reply box.
Are you working with vertical video? Can you give the complete specs of the media? How was the media generated? The application says it’s having a problem decoding it. What computer are you using?
