I'm editing a project in FCP. Last week, I accidently erased some of my footage. No biggie - I used some software to recover the majority of the media files. I also had a backup on our network, saved as a mpeg 4.
So one section I am working on, I wasn't able to recover a lot of the files. So to save time, I used the backup copy and inserted it into the timeline. All worked fine. Kept on editing with no problems.
It's when I applied the color correction filter to tweak the color that the problems began. Now, whenever I am working on that section, the system freezes and I get the pinwheel. It only lasts 5-10 seconds, but no matter what function I do, it will pause and pinwheel.
It does it when I play, stop, move the cursor along the timeline, or try to edit video into the timeline. It's more of a pain and a nuisance. And when I watch my newly edited-in video, the video looks distorted and funky. When I pause it, the video looks fine.
Has this ever happened to anyone? Or do you have any ideas on how to solve this?
