I doing my first project in color and am sending my corrections back to final cut pro

I am on day number 3 of rendering... is there anyway to stop it and save what I have so far.... I tried quitting the program but nothing seems to work.... short of turning off my computer and I am pretty sure I would lose everything doing that..


i defintely need a number computer this is ridiculous having my computer tied up for a week... the imac just can't hang....

more issues.... file attribute mismatch ??

According to the manual you can pause the rendering by hitting "escape." How long of a project did you send to Color?

thanks! that did the trick i have been learning it on lynda and couldn't figure out how to make it stop... used to the cancel bar in final cut i guess

project is 111 minutes.... multicam concert video... guessing it takes longer since there are so many cuts.... awesome program but defintely gotta get a better machine for these render times

Are you doing the whole project at once or cutting it into 20min or so chunks?

Click to expand...
maybe thats the issue

this is turning into a nightmare.... 5 days to wait to render... finally done and now its telling me that files have an unspecified path....

when I reconnect the media I get an error saying that the
attribute mismatch
-reel
-number of audio video tracks


this is defintely not as simple as they make it out to be in the tutorials... what am I doing wrong

and WORST part is when I find the files it doesn't reconnect them all like it ussually does ...so i have to go back maunally and do all 633 of them

Did you prep the timeline according to the manual? No stills, no speed changes, 20min/200 edits at a time, only approved codecs, etc.?
Creative COW has a good Color forum, and one of the community leaders there, Walter Biscardi, has some good tutorials (as well as a very, very good DVD) about getting started w/Color.

I don't know how i didn't catch the time requirements on the videos
probally should have to the manual... i just don't like books

looks like I will just have to spend a few hours manually recconnecting and hopefully things will work
