Video plays in Viewer but stutters in Canvas
Q. My picture is freezing all the time. Video plays OK on the Viewer, but when I try to play it in the canvas or on my external monitor, I only get sound and a frozen picture, or very jagged movement.
Most likely answer
From Jude Cotter
A. It's likely that you have zoomed in on your canvas or viewer. To fix this, go to the small button at the top middle of your canvas and viewer that has a percentage number in it. Click on this to change it to 'fit to view' or smaller.
Other things that it could be:
- Check that your View > External Video setting is set to 'All Frames' if you are using an external monitor.
- Sometimes using View > Refresh A/V Devices can also help.
- If you are using an external drive, ensure that it is connected via Firewire, not USB.
- If these things don't help, try quitting and restarting FCP.
