hi all,

firstly i am running FCP 6, and tiger.

now for my problem. in my project it tried 'preparing video for display', but came across a error. heres the thing though, i cant click 'cancel' on the error box, or anythign else for that matter cos the 'preparing video' dialogue is still there.

what i think is going on, is i imported a video that was linked to render files that dont exist anymore (thats what the error message is about anyway), and the preparing video progressbar popped up anyway and wont go away till i get rid of the error message, which i cant click cos of the progress bar. catch 22.

does anyone know how i can get past this problem, without force quitting FCP? (i havent saved for a little while, that'll be my last resort).

heres a screenshot to help my point
