The screenshot has not been attached. Make sure the file size of the screenshot is not higher than 250 KB. You can change the file size by opening the image and by saving it as a JPEG, making sure to set the quality slider so that the file size is lower than 250 KB.

You said the problem only happens when you open the Cole's Home Movies Event.

So my question is: now that the Event is opened, do you see that problem?

Okay, so there is definitely something wrong with that Event. Let's do a test.

I see you have 16 clips in the Event.

Change the Clip duration slider from "30 sec" to "All" so you see all the clips in the browser.

Then select every clip one by one and play them. Do you see every clip playing normally in the Viewer? Does the problem go away when you play certain clips?

Aha, now I think I see where the problem is. Stay with me and I think we will sort this out very quickly.

Close FCP X.
Open a Finder window and go to the "Macintosh HD's project and events" Library.
R-click the Library and choose "Show Package Content"
You will see the Cole's Home Movies folder. Open that folder and make a screenshot of what's inside that folder.

No problem, I know what is happening and we are getting close.

The screenshot you have posted before shows a Library called "Cole's Home Videos".
Where is that Library stored?

Yes, that's it. Now open the Final Cut Backups folder. Inside that folder you will see a folder called "Cole's Home Videos".

Open that folder, you will see several Library files. Go to the most recent one and double-click it. FCP X will launch and it will open that Library. Do you still have the problem with that Library open?

Ouch, that's not good. In that case we will have to work with the original Library.

Select the "Cole's Home Videos Library" and open the package.
Trash the CurrentVersion.flexolibrary file, close the package and double-click on the Library icon to open the Library in FCP X. This may take some time, as FCP X will restore the Library database.
See if this solves the problem.

It is still doing the same thing and the only thing running in the background is it is rendering.
