Final Cut Pro Video Rendering Error -50
0". It's a 34 minute sequence. I'm using DVD Best Quality - 90 Minutes as my setting. I've googled this final cut pro quicktime error 50 error and I'm seeing some folks suggest that there may be a corrupt file in the FCP sequence. Others say that it may be an insufficient RAM issue (not my issue). My questions:- Has anyone seen this before? If so, how did you resolve?- If this is due to a corrupt file, how would I go about finding that corrupt file?Any help would be appreciated. I'm up against a deadline about to get into panic mode. thanks!

Share -> Send to Compressor option to render them within this application, Compressor would fail randomly during the process with a QuickTime Error -50. I couldn't really make sense of the error as it happened randomly, meaning sometime the rendering would be successful, sometime not. It also appeared to be independent from the encoding parameters utilized. Tweaking with them did not help at all. Looking up on the Internet I found many others with the same problem, but none of the recommended solutions worked for me, so I had to look for my own! Long story short, here is what worked for me. Are you ready? Well the solution is: do not close Final Cut Pro X after having issued the Send to Compressor command and switched https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3907536?start=0&tstart=0 to Compressor! Apparently Compressor needs Final Cut Pro X still up and running in the background in order to be able to render successfully. Folks with not enough RAM/CPU power may think to free up some memory by closing Final Cut Pro X once the Send the Compressor command has been issued (it was so for me, before I upgraded my Mac Book Pro to 8 GB of RAM). Closing Final Cut Pro X while Compressor still has to render/encode the movie causes http://marcoghislanzoni.com/blog/2012/06/29/solved-apple-compressor-fails-with-quicktime-error-50/ it to fail with the cryptic QuickTime Error -50. Since I have been leaving FCPX open in the background, Compressor never failed once! Hope this helps!

Grazie Reply Marco Ghislanzoni says: 14 Jun 2013 at 11:22 pm Ciao Luca, In pratica l'errore e' causato dal fatto di mandare il filmato in rendering tramite Compressor e, una volta lanciato, di chiudere Final Cut Pro con l'intento di liberare memoria e risorse. Per lavorare correttamente, Compressor ha bisogno che Final Cut Pro resti aperto. Chiudendolo mentre Compressor lavora, si causa l'errore Quicktime -50. Spero ti sia utile. Ciao! Reply luca says: 15 Jun 2013 at 10:07 am Il problema è che io final cut pro x non lo chiudo e l'errore mi si crea lo stesso. Ora ho esportato da final cut con codec ProRes e mi ha generato tranquillamente il file .mov (da 35GB) in pochi minuti senza ness

some folks complain that Compressor is more trouble than it's worth, I use it regularly to create self-contained QuickTime files and format conversions. No problems, really, until this evening. Encoding a QT video from the Animation codec to a custom H.264 file resulted in Compressor generating "QuickTime error -120." My was Mac was recently rebooted and neither Final Cut Pro or QuickTime Player was loaded at the time. The problem was resolved using a suggestion from Apple's discussion forum. In summary: As a workaround for the -120 errors, I noticed the Compressor application menu has a choice for Reset Background Processing… which does get things working again, but isn't really a good solution and suggests there's a bug in the background application (qmasterd). FWIW, the forum post is dated May 12, 2007 and I experienced this error on May 26, 2008 - one year and software version later.
