Final Cut Multicam Angles black out during playback

Hi! I created a Multicam Clip and edited it for a while without any problem.

Suddenly however during the playback the Camera angles go black during the playback when i try to edit between them. Once i stop the playback they appear again. Also if I scrub over the timeline with the courser the angles don't go black. It only happens when I playback the timeline which has the multicam clip.

Has anyone heard of this problem and knows of a solution?

Restarting FCPX (10.6.5) didn't help unfortunately. Other multicam clips in the same project are not affected.

Any help is highly welcomed!

Thanks in Advance

To add to the always excellent suggestions from Luis, I've had the angle-goes-black in the browser and/or timeline happen occasionally. Not sure what set of conditions cause it but if I remember correctly, stepping into the angle editor (double-click the multicam) and changing the monitoring angle fixes it, at least temporarily.

Try deleting render files for this clip, or for the project. Select the clip (or the project) in the browser, and File->Delete Clip Render Files... (or File->Delete Project Render Files...)
