Clip exported from Apple Motion showing 1s of black in FCPX timeline
Hello everybody,
I have made a simple 12s animation in motion (2160/25p), exported it to ProRes422 and placed it in a 2160/25p timeline in FCPX. There the clip shows to have a lenght of 11:14 (not 11:24 shown in Motion) and the last second of the clip shows black only. I tried creating a new Motion project, copying all the assests, reexporting and got the same result. Restarted the Mac, FCPX, Motion - nothing helped. Tried exporting using Compressor - didn't help. The clip plays back fine in Finder and there it shows 12s of duration.
Unfortunatelly, almost every time I needed to use Motion animations in FCPX in the past years, I ran into trouble. I really don't want to switch to other platform a learn again from scratch, but such bugs are really terrible to deal with. I have used FCP and Motion since version 1 on PowerPC, so I'm not new to it. They used to be very realiable but in the last years something has changed and expecially Motion appears to be very buggy... I usually don't have problems with projects made solely in FCPX.
Update: Tried exporting to h.264 and the clip is ok now. So there is something wrong with the ProRes422 export in Motion.
