I have 5 sequences in my project, all similar.
Four of them play fine full-screen in Digital Cinema Desktop Preview (fn + command + F12).
One of them won't play -- the audio is OK, but only a sporadic video frame or two appears. I've selected "All Frames."
What's happening?
iMac (27-inch, Late 2012), OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.3)
similar? make the problem sequence active, and hit command-zero and tell us pixel dimensions, pixel aspect ratio, frame rate and compressor.
non standard sequences will usually not play in digital cinema desktop.
It's possible that this particular sequence is corrupt. Try creating a new sequence with the same settings, make the problematic sequence active, select all (command-a), make the new sequence active and paste (command-v). See if that fixes it.
Frame Size: 1280 x 720
Aspect Ratio: HDTV 720p (16:9)
Pixel Aspect Ratio: Square
Field Dominance: None
Editing Timebase: 29.97
Compressor: H.264
Another problem: When I export this sequence as a QuickTime movie, the audio goes out ouf sync after about 20 seconds in.
There are hundreds of posts here that explain why you should not be using H.264 in Final Cut Pro.
