Resilio Sync Corrupting Final Cut Pro Libraries

[jasondunn]

I forgot to exit Resilio Sync today before importing a bunch of videos into Final Cut Pro, and like always, it corrupts the project after the video import. If I manually pause the library it still happens - the only solution is to completely exit the app. Any chance we could get a fix for this?

Pause is not supposed to stop indexing. 
you can make use of IgnoreList or FileDelayConfig to stop Sync form indexing certain files.

Hi Helen. Thanks for your response. Respectfully, can I suggest that "Pause" is not the right word to use if it doesn't stop indexing? To me "Pause" means "to temporarily cease", which should including indexing. A global pause should stop everything.

If I use the IgnoreList, then it will ignore those files permanently, which then breaks the premise of why I use Resilio Sync in the first place. 

[Gane O'dwyer]

Sync pausing as normal as global only prevents files syncing but not deletion, indexing etc.

[jasondunn]

Right. But what I'm saying is that "Pause" is the wrong word if the engine keeps going in the background and trashes my Final Cut Pro projects...it's misleading and confusing to customers.

Hi, I'm also interested to start using Resilio Sync together with Final Cut Pro Libraries (and KeyFlow Pro 2 Libraries).

Still the same problems as described in this thread? Any luck with modifying the FileDelayConfig?

[jasondunn]

I haven’t tried it again, because the risk of Final Cut library corruption is too high. I just know now to exit before opening up Final Cut Pro and importing new video content.

The problem (I think) are the little settings and temp files in the Library that didn't sync when opening or don't get sync fast enough.

Also looking for solution so we can work live on a Library which is then in sync with the server.

Hello,

I'm curious to read if the sync problems with Final Cut had been addressed, or not...

I am coming from a bad experience with Dropbox & Blackmagic Cloud Pod, who are constantly corrupting the proxies contained in the FCP bundle (i cannot relink the proxies, i have to regenerate them every 2 week or so). 

I need to share a FCPX library of 1,4 To (many proxies inside) with 2 other editors, who will not work at the same time, but we need a shared common ground to collaborate. Is this science fiction, or managable ?

Thanks for your answer :)

I tested Resilio with two SSD attached to two different laptops, same account. The sync process went well, outside of 2 errors (that seemed not problematic).

But then, when i tried to open the FCP project on the second computer, message that the project was corrupted and 0 out of 10 errors could be resolved. Project unusable. 

So, this is not working. I will not use Resilio and go the old way: manual copy / sync on one computer, with the disk attached.
This is so much 1990; we are 2023 almost, why is it not possible to do remote editing with FCP ?
