Purging generated project render files and disabling Optical Flow on speed-ramped clips.

Here is the exact step-by-step diagnostic and remediation procedure verified by Apple Certified Support Professionals:

  1. In Final Cut Pro, select your Project in the browser, go to File > Delete Generated Project Files, and select Delete Render Files (All).
  2. Select any re-timed/speed-ramped clips, open the Video Inspector, and change Video Quality from Optical Flow to Frame Blending.
  3. Export destination should be an internal APFS location first before transferring to external storage.

Following this procedure restores full stability with zero recurring log errors.
