Final Cut Pro X Export Fails with "Master File" error after just a few seconds

[Anim8me2]

So here is my Devices->Properties page. I'm not certain what should be here. I have the system set up with 18.3 (iMac Retina 5K). Also the current version of Video Proc shows me this...

You want to see all green in VideoProc, so looks like you need some work.

Please search around before you try this, but I believe you are missing an entry for device-id (please don't blame me if you have issues).

In your case, I am pretty sure it should be 9B3E0000 (you can see my screenshot for reference). So add a new entry with:

Properties Key: device-id
Properties Value: 9B3E0000
Value Type: DATA

Reboot and see what VideoProc comes back with.

Also on your graphics tab, you have 0x3E9B0007 under ig-platform-id, which I also needed an entry when I was running High Sierra.

Removing that entry on my system is what finally allowed me to export (in addition to everything else shown in my screenshots).

I also have fairly recent WhateverGreen (v1.2.5) and Lilu (v1.3.0) kexts, not sure if yours are up to date or not.

I have my iGPU disabled(system wont start with it enabled). Still no joy on getting both proc to show up in VProc.

Also the latest version of Whatevergreen and Lilu

I have my iGPU disabled(system wont start with it enabled). Still no joy on getting both proc to show up in VProc.

Is it possible that with the changes I suggested, it might boot with the iGPU enabled?

Pretty sure FCPX wants to see an iGPU, but you might need to start your own post to take it further.

I was able to run it before but I couldn't get Quickview working till I disabled it. Now I can't boot with it enabled.

Same here, this has been a bit of a headache. When I enable iGPU in BIOS and use connector-less Framebuffer for coffee lake AAPL, igplatform-id: 3E920003, FCPX works and uses iGPU to encode H.264. However, I break compatibility with iTunes-DRM. If I disable in BIOS and just use Vega, DRM (iTunes, Netflix, etc) works but FCPX and Compressor fails to export/share. I also tried shikigva=1 to use both iGPU+dGPU to force Vega to handle the load but this breaks FCPX. It seems, Final cut is programmed to use iGPU forcefully (maybe because my SMBIOS is 18,3?)... Also, I have tried "defaults write com.apple.AppleGVA forceATI=1" in terminal without any luck. Any help would be appreciated. I am attaching my EFI folder in case it is needed to help.

Just upgraded to Mojave straight to 10.14.5 (18F132) today.
Several of my old High Sierra settings kept me from getting FCPX back up and rendering.

i7-6700k
Vega 64 reference
Asrock z170

Used the Hackintool and guide to get the right platform-ID and device-id, set in Clover Configurator, and I am back up and running with a much cleaner config. Thanks for the hints on this thread.

Hi All , I've got similar issues with "share" to 1080P and 4K apple devices. Exept I am on Imac Pro 1.1 and smaller files 3-5 minute ones were OK, but 28 min clip i had was failing at 16% or more. It all went away after updating to 10.14.6. There was also a video files update, maybe it was related, not sure. Also , my temps showed on VEGA 64 and it is not good: 128C on GPU Die. Geekbench 4 went down significantly after update as well. Over all system is very stable so far. I have water cooled system from EK
