I have tried playing the videos when nothing else is running but that doesn't seem to rectify anything. The videos are on an external USB hardrive. Unfortunately that hasn't sorted anything out.
I have repaired permissions using disk utility and it has rectified some minor issues. Not sure if your issues might be similarly connected or not. I used to leave my system on 24/7 for iTunes-TV access but am finding that frequent re-boots of the el Capitan system seems to "clear" many of the slowdown issues I am experiencing. On a personal note, my I7 iMac operating under El Capitan also seems more prone to "slowdown" issues than previous OS versions. In short, choppy video playback is often just a symptom of other, more serious system problems. stored on an internal/external USB/Firewire/Thunderbolt DAS/local network/internet drive, etc? What other applications and/or processes are simultaneously running? Check the "Activity Monitor" to see if any apps or processes are "not responding" and/or creating data bottlenecks and/or abnormal "hogging" of CPU, drive read/write, or network work cycle allocations. (QT automatically drops frames if/when it cannot keep up with playback requirements which can create choppy playback issues to complete "freeze" of playback.) Are you trying to play normal SD, HD, 2.5K, 4K, 5K or larger resolution formats? What video codecs are you using and at what data and/or frame rates? How are the files stored/being played back-e.g. Take a look at your FCP preferences to see if changing how it deals with situations like dropped frames will make a difference.The first step here would normally be to determine the nature of the problem-i.e., is the problem due to the file playback requirements of the files themselves or due to a problem within the system itself.Ĭheck the files for bandwidth requirements and compare them with system capabilities. Then see if the newly exported file can be imported into FCP and edited fine. Open the file using Quicktime Player and, assuming it opens okay, use Quicktime's export function to export it (with a new filename). If that succeeds, then try importing the file (or converting it into a new format) from the new location.

If none, have you got any other software to try converting it?Īnother thing to try would be to manually copy the file from the SD card onto another card/drive (or to your Mac) without going through an import process. Ideally you would try doing this within the Atomos Shogun Flame directly, but I'm not familiar with that device and don't know what export/editing functions it has. I know you've tried re-encoding the file using Adobe Media Encoder, but perhaps you could try encoding the file into a totally different format first.

No-one here is going to be able to give you a 100% definitive answer on why a specific video file is causing a crash (especially without full details of the file in question and without access to it), except of course to say it's most likely corrupted in some way.īooting your MBP into Safe Mode and trying to import the file again. I haven't purchased Apple Compressor, so Adobe Media Encoder is the primary tool I have to convert files. The Shogun Flame has limited file management capabilities, so I am unable to do anything on that end.
Is there a tool that I can use to fix this file so my computer won't crash while using it? Or is there something else I can try to get around this issue? I've also attempted transferring the file from the SSD to my internal drive, as well as to my RAID prior to importing it, but that causes the same issue. If I put my SSD back in the Atomos Shogun, and watch the entire file, it plays perfectly fine. I've tried importing the file into Adobe Premiere but the system still crashes (i.e. So far I've attempted to re-encode the file using Adobe Media Encoder, but FCPX still has issues with it. However, if I try to play, create a proxy, or do anything that involves handling this file after import, my computer reboots. FCPX imports and uses all of the other files from the same shoot fine.

My MacBook Pro 2016 with Touch Bar keeps having a kernel panic whenever I attempt to use a specific video file I recorded with my Atomos Shogun Flame.
