Dear FCPX,

If you're going to have just 1 "canvas" and no "viewer" please have it freaking work and quit getting stuck playing UNSELECTED clips from the browser while I'm trying to playback my timeline...
Thanks

Seriously does anyone else have this problem? I desperately need a fix as this is driving me crazy.
ugh FCPX is like a drug and i can't stop using it but this may be the single most bug that forces me to hang up FCPX for awhile.

Maxed out I7 Imac with latest version of Snow Leopard and FCPX. I've tried all the usual fixes, restarts, reinstalls, trashed prefs, etc. nothing seems to be working. Actually just to clarify, if I restart FCPX it will start fresh but as soon as I select a clip in the browser the canvas gets stuck and will not playback from the timeline.

This is weird because FCPX would only do this when I would stabilize a clip (which was aggravating to all hell but I could deal with it), a few clicks would "unstick the canvas", now though its all the time and I spend more time trying to unstick the canvas then actual editing.
As I type this I cannot get the canvas to behave, it is just stuck playing back unselected clips from the browser even though I have the timeline specifically selected.


Anyone have any ideas???
 
It's a bug and I'm pretty sure it mostly happens after I apply stabilization to a clip in the timeline - the playhead gets stuck on the source clip in the browser until you click on another clip and then click back onto your timeline.
 
That's happened to me too so I just open and close the titles or effects browser...

…or just click off to the side a few times and/or growl :Drogar-Thinking(DBG

Click to expand...

Yes the bug/glitch started off like that for me but now it has escalated to when I set in/out points in the browser and edit the clip to the timeline, at which point the canvas is stuck playing the clips in the browser and there is nothing, absolutely nothing I can do to reset it except restart FCPX.

So I have to select a clip, set in/out, edit into timeline, restart FCPX, rinse/repeat...
 
That bug got me once..so far...its annoying I was clicking every where before normal function was resumed
