FCPX stops sharing after 12%
When trying to share the file, Master File and first uncompressed 10-bit and then UC 8-bit, FCPX stopped sharing after 12%.
I´m on a Macbook Pro, 8GB 1600 MHZ DDR, 2.5 GHz, Intel Core i5.
When I was half way there editing the movie I tried uncompressed 8-bit. 90 GB went fine. Done sharing after 20 minutes.
This time it tok about 10 minutes to reach 12%, only to stop responding.
Any clue?

You realize that your file size will be well over 250 GB?
Why not just create a master file using the codec it's edited in? Namely ProRes.

I know, but someone told me uncompressed was better then compressed. I also was told that ProRes was a not a deliver product, but a codec you use if you´re not finished.
But after googling, I found out that there is almost none difference between ProRes and UC 10-bit.
So I went for ProRes.

Back in the early days compression was pretty nasty and uncompressed was the way to go for broadcast. Now compression has come a very long way. Look at cable TV, digital cable streams MPEG-2 which is mega, super compressed. Full resolution H.264 is fantastic for delivery.
Stick with this forum kid, we'll take good care of you.

I will for sure stick around!
You have been very good to me. Patience also! Very gratefull. Hope I someday can repay you all for your kidness!
I have made my first movie, and the kids, and collegues are very satisfied.
The movie involes a lot of kids, so I can`t share it with you.
However, you can take a look here:

It`s in norwegian, but with help from google translate you might undersand some of it. If not, perhaps the short clip will tell you something
