How to delete plugins in FCPX?

Hi,


I have some demo plugins that are no longer supported by FCPX and therefore I get an warning dialogue when opening FCPX. How can I delete those plugins? I have searched my iMac for the name of the plugin, but it can't find it, I have been to the library folders of both FCPX and Motion with no luck. Soooo can you help? 😊


Best regards,

Thomas

If they can be applied (even if they don't work) create a sequence - add a clip if the plug in requires one - and add the plugin.

Export an XML. Open that one in a text editor and search for "effect" then it that line for "uid". This will give you the path to the plugin.

If the plugin is installed thru fxFactory do the de-installation there. If you don't do the plugin will always be re-installed with every launch of fcpx.
