FCPX keeps exporting large amounts of black nothingness at the end of my sequence. There's nothing at the end after the content. Usually it adds about 15-24 minutes of black space. Any clues?
Final Cut Pro X, Mac OS X (10.7.3)
Have you used PluralEyes with your media?

Hi Tom
indeed I did, you sound like you know something I don't 🙂
It's a bug that's been reported with PluralEyes. Unfortunately I don't know of any solution. You might want to try contacting them.
cool, I definitely will. Thanks Tom.
I talked to Pluraleyes; they have filed a bug report to Apple and are waiting on an update.
Until then this problem can be resolved by copying your synced sequence, making a new project, and pasting your old sequence in and exporting.
It's not exclusively an issue with Pluraleyes. I have the same problem - blank uneditable, undeletable timeline at the end of my sequence and without Pluraleyes installed. It may have occurred while updating projects to 10.1.2.
Will know more soon as i will be having to update and open a few more projects that were perfectly trimmed previously in the next few days.

What do you see at the end of the timeline? A gap? Or what? Can you post a screenshot?
It sounds like a Gap as Luis says. Can you select the black bar and simply delete it.
The black cannot be deleted from timeline because it cannot be seen until you view exported file. I do not know what PluralEyes is, but this just started recently in my case, which led me here.
The bug is highly annoying and time consumptive as I just began a process of converting an entire library of archived material, to be sectioned off into many. many. segments.
Has it not been solved yet? It's April 2015.

I would not assume that this has anything to do with this old thread. Reading back on this, it appears that the problem had to do with a bug in Plural Eyes, which you do not have.
I think you should start a new thread, and explain in detail what your setup is - including versions of OS and FCP X, what type of media and project settings, and post screenshots of your timeline.
FWIW, this thread did not appear to provide any indication of a bug in FCP X.
We need more information, as I requested above, in order to provide useful assistance (and, to be clear, "we" are common users such as yourself, this a user forum).
Ah, okay. I'm sorry for the confusion. Thank you for the advice.
FCP is exporting black space at the end of sequence
