site_archiver@lists.apple.com Delivered-To: Pro-apps-dev@lists.apple.com Hey James, Sorry to just say what you already know, but having more than one segment in the quickTime Mov isn't really supported in FCP. If you think you've found a bug, as always, please write it up in bugreporter.apple.com. Cheers, Helena On 2010-02-25, at 6:57 PM, James Brooks wrote:

Hi Again

Is there a better place, or person, to ask this kind of question? This is really looking like a bug in FCP and I cannot seem to create a workaround. There are two other fairly complex questions I need to ask, but I don't want to waste the list's time if this is not the appropriate place to ask

Thanks, James

Yet another interesting piece of data: If I render the time line to a QuickTime MOV, the output is correct. It is only while editing that the first media segment is missing or using the wrong data references. Also, all other QT compatible applications I have seem to work fine.

Thanks, James

Sorry, forgot one other detail: FCP's picture icon for the clip in the time line is correct. Also, if you enable film strip mode, all the pictures along the time line are correct. It is only the playback in the preview or main windows that is missing the first video segment.

Thanks, James

Hi All

We have a import/export component for FCP/QuickTime that is working very well in general, but there is one issue we cannot resolve. For one of our formats we need to stitch together multiple video and audio files to make a complete A/V clip in FCP. If there is only one video file and one audio file per track, everything works perfectly in FCP and QT Player. If there are multiple video files and multiple audio files, everything works perfectly in QT Player on OS-X and Windows, but in FCP the video media segments are missing the first one, or more likely, FCP is using the dataRef from the second segment for the first, the third segment for the second, etc. The result looks like this:

QTPlayer: Track 1 | -- video 1 -- | -- video 2 -- | -- video 3 -- | Track 2 | -- audio 1 -- | -- audio 2 -- | -- audio 3 -- | Track 3 | -- audio 1 -- | -- audio 2 -- | -- audio 3 -- | Track 4 | ---------------------- time code ------------------|

FCP: Track 1 | -- video 2 -- | -- video 3 -- | -- black --| Track 2 | -- audio 1 -- | -- audio 2 -- | -- audio 3 -- | Track 3 | -- audio 1 -- | -- audio 2 -- | -- audio 3 -- | Track 4 | ---------------------- time code ------------------|

I have tried adding a fake dataRef to another file with no media in the video track, but this does not help. Does anyone have any idea what is going on?
