Timeline Export Problem

FCP 7
OS X 10.6.8
MacBook Pro
2.16 GHz Core Duo
2 GB 667 SDRam

This is strange. Never happened before. I imported an .mov clip into the timeline, edited it down to the segment I wanted, marked the in and out, rendered, and exported twice, in Apple ProRes 422 HQ and again in Photo-JPEG. Both times, the end result was an .mov file of the segments that I actually cut from the timeline. I am stumped. Any ideas.

One possible solution:

Is the original file in the H.264 codec?

In FCP, select the original file in the browser and type Command-9

If the Compressor entry is H.264 that might be your problem.

Convert the file to ProRes and relink your timeline to the converted file.
