To most people, this software is a little difficult to handle as it has too much functions and buttons. And there are even technical classes to teach how to manage it. Everyone can get to use it freely when understanding it enough. But there are still two problems, which puzzle most users exist: 1 Videos are refused to import into FCP X. 2 FCP X spends too much on the process of "render". Actually, this is mainly "format" problem. Following, explanation about these two problems will be shown.



1 Import: FCP X has its native video format: Apple ProRes. It means that when your video files are with this format, FCP X can recognize and read the files directly, and then allow the importing. But if your have other format videos, FCP X doesn't support the importing. In FCP 7, there is "log and transfer". This function allows users import AVCHD files with BDMV folders. If you have ever analysed the structure of AVCHD files, such folders can be found easily.

"Log and transfer" made it possible to import a none-Apple Prores video, but it's a little complex. That's because when using FCP, most users choose to import single videos without the complicated folders. The X version deleted "log and transfer", but still support this operation by "Import from camcorder". And even if you have imported the AVCHD files, problem 2 will puzzle you again: render.

2 Render: People who have ever used FCP X, will find that the process of rendering run from top to end. That's because when editing videos, FCP X could read its acquiescent data. So when there is difference, there is "render". As its native format is Apple ProRes, it can edit this format freely, but to other videos, it will spend super long time to render. How to solve this problem?
