I exported a film from FCP 7 and when I tried to compress the file in Compressor, I got the dreaded -50 error.

Any advice? Almost all the advice I've seen online is what to do so you can export to Compressor from the program...but in my case, I already have an exported movie file I'm trying to compress. Any ideas?

Thanks!
