Q: Problem turning off Effects in FCP
Has anyone else experienced this problem?
If so have you managed to resolve it?
The problem is that if I need to put effects on the first clip in a film series FCP automatically adds these effects to every single section of each clip in the rest of the film series.
I can turn these off, either in the Inspector panel or in video animation, by unchecking each individual box for each section of film on each clip. But when FCP is turned off at night, it reinstates the effects again.
One other point, it isn’t just adding the effects as a checked box visual issue, because clips show up as needing rendering, and will compress as a much larger file if I miss unchecking one of the boxes.
Also many of these film files are taking much longer to compress when this problem happens, so I suspect that FCP is treating them as larger files with effects on them, even when these are turned off.
I’ve tried trashing the preference files but that didn’t resolve the problem
