Final Cut Pro not letting me Import Media Files Whenever I try to import files into FCP the media is grayed out and I can't select it, it says, "The selected files were not imported because one or more required 3rd-party plug-ins are not installed." I don't know what plug ins to install because this is my first time using FCP, any clue to why its doing this? I've been searching online and I can't find any answers.

Cannot export file in Final Cut Pro I recently finished a video project in Final Cut Pro that took me a long time to make it, but I can't export the file anymore. Up to a certain point while doing the video, I was able to export it, but after I did more editing, I couldn't. Other projects are working fine, just not this one. I tried to restart the program, my computer, relink the files, create the project in a new library, export parts of the project, but nothing worked. Could anyone download the .fcpxml file in the link below to try to export it, and share it in .mp4 or .mov format, please? [Link Edited by Moderator]

Change the selection and try again." It seems there isn't any info on the file and it wont open in Quick time or any other media player. File was in a interview sequence with 3 other videos, no problems with the others. Images attached, HELP!

You have already asked about this recently.

See what joema had to say about it in the other thread, he is absolutely correct, as usual.
