FCP 6 XML file has inexplicable failure to open in PPro CC.

Hello,
I'm trying to open an XML from FCP6 and I keep getting the often mentoned "This project appears to be damaged, it cannot be opened".
Now the odd thing about this, was that it was actually just a trial run as a colleague has not got time to learn PPro and is still larking around with FCP. We are trying to become familiar with how we shall cope with XDCAM media. FCP will have to encode the media into a form that FCP can read. He is using XDCAM Transfer from within FCP.
I wanted to check how I will have to relink the media to my non-encoded XDCAM media. (The answer to this question is simple, but frustrating - I have to re-link it manually - I think)
So I gave him one XDCAM file, with its standard file structure and asked him to make a single sequence with one or two cuts. Then to export a version 4 XML.
Nothing we do will make this blasted XML file work. He has provided me with three different XML files. None of them work.
However, when I boot up an old HD, with FCP6 on it and use the same XDCAM media, I can export a version 4 XML that opens in PPro CC without problem.
So where is this annoying problem occuring?
I have even read through 80 to 100 lines to the XML to see what difference there are. I can't be bothered to look further.
Hope someone can help.
Thanks,
Anthony @ Antimatter Films

Might be faster for him to learn PP after all.

  • Getting question marks in html output when xml file has an mdash or rsquo

    I have a java servlet that gets an xml file out of ifs, applies
    a style sheet to it, and sends it to the browser as html.
    I have:
    DOMparser parser = new DOMParser();
    parser.parse(XmlUrl);
    The characters ampersand, greater than, less than, and
    apostrophe work fine.
    HOWEVER, When the xml file has an mdash(&#X2014) or a rsquo
    (&#x2019) in it, my html output in IE shows up with question
    marks where these characters are supposed to be.
    Does anyone know what I can do to fix this? I don't understand
    why it would work with some special characters and not others?

    UPDATE
    Compiling from command line I found out that the class definition for oracle.oats.scripting.modules.basic.api.IteratingVUserScript is missing. Do you know what .jar file contains this class?
    Thanks.

  • MasterThemeSchema.xml file has invalid data error when customizing layout

    Whenever I try to customize my layout for Responsive HTML5 I get an error "MasterThemeSchema.xml file has invalid data". I've tried creating new layouts and editing existing layouts. The first time I click Customize Selected Layout it works. But any attempt after that produces the error. Anyone know what's going on? Thanks.

    Has not working over the network fixed the problem? If it has, check both ways again to establish beyond doubt that it is a problem with working on the network. If it does prove to be that, please file a bug but also post back here.

    Hi Experts,
                      When i store file in application server,some extra junk character at last in xml file.So it gives error like below.
      An invalid character was found in text content.
    The last row of XML internal table has some extra special characters. How to avoid these extra spacial characters?
    Please suggest?
    Thanks.

    if possible, Do the following in side the loop.
    data lv_string type string VALUE '1111111######'.
               REPLACE ALL OCCURRENCES OF '#' IN lv_string WITH ''.
    or
      OPEN DATASET <path> FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING DEFAULT.

  • Importing a FCP 6 xml file to FCP 5

    I'm trying to import a sequence saved as an xml file. After I select the file to import, I get a dialog box that says "Please choose a translation document file." Can anyone shed some light on what this is about?

    What XML version was exported from FCP 6?

  • Premiere Pro CC "general error" when importing FCP 7 xml file

    I have edited a film using Final Cut Pro 7 on a Mac which is not mine (and now several 100 kms away). I would like to do some more editing on the project using Final Cut Pro CC  (trial version, to test if it does everything I need it to do before buying). I exported my film as an xml file to import into Premiere, but Premiere now tells me it cannot import because of a "general error". (I also have Premiere CS4 on my computer which crashes when I try to import the xml file - but that has some problems with reading my image material anyway, which is why I wanted to try switching to Premiere CC). Any hints on how I could solve this problem (preferably without getting the Mac back which I can't right now) would be much appreciated. Many thanks!

    No ideas? I found some entries on this issue for earlier versions of Premiere which in part included advice to update to a newer version - which in my case clearly does not apply. So any ideas for possible solutions would be great.

  • 11.2.0.3 db upgrade - adbldxml.pl xml file has "allprod" as NULL

    We are doing a new implementation of Oracle EBS . So installed 12.1.1 with 11g R1 through rapid wiz and then did the 12.1.3 apps upgrade followed by the final database 11.2.0.3 upgrade. It is non-RAC database. So straightforward.
    Notes followed for 11.2.0.3 database upgrade
    a) Oracle 11g upgrade - 1058763.1
    b) Autoconfig on db tier - 387859.1 for the appsutil directory on the new 11.2.0.3 oracle home after the upgrade
    When i ran the adbldxml.pl after the 11.2.0.3 upgrade to generate the new context file, suprisingly it sets "allprod" and "allshareprod" and "allterr" tags as NULL also "dbtype" is showing as VISION. The original xml file (11g R1 home) prior to the 11.2.0.3 upgrade is filled with the RIGHT values for the "allprod" and "allshareprod" and "allterr" tags. Also the "dbtype" is PROD.
    I have started the apps after the 11.2.0.3 upgrade and The Oracle Applications Manager => License Manager is still showing all our products and country specific functionalities that i have chosen initially INTACT. (Financials, Service contracts etc.)
    But the concern is if i run the adautocfg.sh on the database tier with the new xml file (that contains "allprod" and "allshareprod" and "allterr" tags as NULL), will it update the database tables somewhere and disable all the products in License Manager ?
    From where does the adbldxml.pl is setting "allprod" and "allshareprod" and "allterr" tags as NULL , whereas the The Oracle Applications Manager => License Manager is still showing all our products and country specific functionalities that i have chosen initially INTACT

  • XML file from Logic - can i open in STP

    i had a professional do sound design for me. he put all of the actual sound files on my hard drive and also gave me an XML file, which he said i could open in FCP and all of my sound would line up in it's own tracks.
    does anyone know how i can open this XML into a soundtrack pro multritrack project?
    or do i have to get it to work first in FCP then export as a multitrack?
    thanks!
    keith

    You might have tried by this time . . . but, yes. Just do an "open" from within STP, find the file, and it should open.

  • HT202879 How do I fix "the required index.xml file is missing?" when opening Pages documents?

    I can't open any documents from my son's iPad.  Error message: the required index.xml file is missing.  How do I fix this error so that I can open his Pages documents?  Before I ran the latest update as prompted when I opened Pages, I WAS able to open and view the document.
    I did try restoring Pages using my Time Machine, but it still won't open the Pages document.
    I have a brand new iMac that I just set up last week. 
    Son uses iPad at school, so we update when the school asks him to update.  Will doublecheck his version of Pages but it should be pretty recent.
    In general I don't like using Pages because it lacks a lot of the backwards / forwards compatibilty of Microsoft Word. 
    However, it is what my son uses with the iPad. 
    Most of the time I have to export his files as WORD files because we never seem to have compatible versions of Pages between the iPad and the desktop iMacs. 
    Where can I recommend that Apple improve its compatibility issues with Pages?
    This week I am going to receive a new iPad at my school (I am a teacher) but I am 100% certain that it will not be compatible with the older version of Pages on my classroom iMac.  I also avoid using Keynote for the same reason.  I have 15 year old Power Points that I can still open, but I am hesitant to switch over to Keynote because I want to be able to open my files any time, any where.
    Please advise.

    Not sure what v5 is. Someone helped me and opened it through Pages 5.2, through the program, rather than the Finder. Thanks for making a suggestion!

  • How can I take the part that parses the .XML file and make it a procedure.

    CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY XMLSTUD6 AS
    Author: Jimmy Harris
    Created: 5/25/2006
    Purpose: 1.This package has an XML file initialized to a variable called DOC .
              2.It will then take the values from the XML file and insert them into a PL/SQL table.
              3.From the PL/SQL table it will insert values into the STUDENTS table.
              4.After step four above, the STUDLOAD procedure will insert (Sequence,Status, .XML file, USER, SYSDATE, ERROR_Message
                             into the AUDIT_XMLSTUD table regardless if insert status was successfull or not status is indicated by either an Y or
              NO and the original XML filed that was currently processed, the date and user who executed the procedure.
              If the status was NO then it will insert the Oracle SQLERRM massage, into the REASON_FOR_ERROR column.
                             If status is Y then REASOK_FOR_ERROR IS NULL.
                             5,Make sure you embed the xml file with an inner and outer ' ' ie: ' the whole .xml file string ' as the input
                             parameter into the STUDLOAD procedure.
    This package excepts the whole .XML file as a CLOB as an input parameter, so that the end-user will not have
                                  modify the code.      
    Modification History:     1.6/09/2006 JImmy Harris Modified code, added the Function "WORD_CONVERTER1" to accept the requested text data and
    return a coded value back to our Welligent system.     
                                  2. Was advised that a front end type of functionality was not neccesary for this issue so I removed the INSERT_XML_FILE,

    Try opening the problem files using a text editor or file viewer to see what the first few bytes contain. All valid FM binary files for FM 11 will contain <MakerFile 11.0> in the first bytes of the file.
    When updating books, it's sometimes better to just to create a new book file and add the files to that.
    When renaming files in a book, changes at the system level will break any links/cross-references between files, so it's always best to use the Rename option in the Book file to change FM file names. This will maintain the correct linkages.

  • Need to insert values into a table from a XML file

    Hi,
    I'm an Oracle 9i/10g DBA with quite a few years experience, but I'm new to XML and dealing with it in database terms. I've been given a project that entails pulling XML values out of a file (or 100's of them) and storing them in the database so that they are searchable by end-users. The project is classified as secret so I'm unable to upload the specific XML or any info relating to the structire of the XML or the table I will use to insert the values into - sorry!! So, I've created an XML file with a similar structure to help people understand my predicament.
    The end-users only need to search on a subset of the total amount of columns from the table I'll insert data into, although the XML file has a lot more, so I dont need to store the other values - but I will need to store the name of the XML file (or a pointer to it so I know what XML file a particular set of values belong to) in another column of the table along with its associated values.
    I've been using the XMLTABLE function with some degree of success, although I had better succes using the XMLSEQUENCE function. However, I found out this is deprecated in 10g and replaced with XMLTABLE, so I guess it's better if I use this in case we ever need to upgrade to 11g.
    The main problem I've been having is that some elements in the XML files have multiple values for the one record when all the other records are the same. In terms of storing this in the database, I guess it would mean inserting multiple rows in the table for each element where the value differs. Here is a dumbed down XML file similar to what I've got along with the other SQL I've used:
    +<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>+

    CREATE TABLE xmltest OF XMLTYPE;
    INSERT INTO xmltest
    VALUES(xmltype(bfilename('XML_DIR', 'test.xml'), nls_charset_id('AL32UTF8')));
    Consequently, I need to...
    1) Retrieve the results from the XML file for all 3 warehouses where multiple values for the same sub-element are shown as 2 rowsthe result set. (I am guessing there will be 4 rows returned as warehouse sub-2 has 2 different elements for <WarehouseName>.
    2) Build a case statement into the query so that regardless of the sub-element name (i.e State or County), it is returned into the 1 column, for instance County.
    So, if I run a query similar to the following...
    select y.WarehouseId, y.Town, y.County, y.Area
    from xmltest x, xmltable('/House/Warehouse' .......
    I would like to get results back like this...
    ID Town County Area
    1 Southlake Texas 25000
    2 Poole Dorset 40000
    2 Solihull West Midlands 40000
    3 Fleet hampshire 10000
    Sorry for the non-formatting but I hope this all makessense to someone out there with what I'm trying to do.
    I appreciate any help whatsoever because, as i said before, I'm totally new to XML and trying to read the vast amount of information there is out there on XML is all a bit daunting.
    Many thanks in advance,
    Shaun.

    I had a look in the dump file for anything obvious, but nothing really stands out. Is there anything obvious in my code that I'm missing or something else which you may think could be causing this error, e.g in the regular expression regexp_substr?
    Many thanks,

  • XML data into Oracle Tables. XML file on Application Server.Oracle Apps R12

    Hi All,
    My Database version : 11.2.0.2.0
    I have an XML file which needs to be loaded into the Database Tables. How ever i do not want to use the XMLTYPE as given below
    insert into test1 (
    SELECT PrcDate, PmtType, PmtStatus, PmtTypeCount, PmtTypeAmt
    FROM XMLTABLE(
    '/WFPaymentAck/RejectedDom1ACH'
    PASSING XMLTYPE( BFILENAME('ECX_UTL_LOG_DIR_OBJ','wf_test_xml.XML'), NLS_CHARSET_ID('UTF8') )
    COLUMNS
    PrcDate VARCHAR2(2000) PATH '@PrcDate' ,
    PmtType VARCHAR2(2000) PATH '@PmtType' ,
    PmtStatus VARCHAR2(100) PATH '@PmtStatus' ,
    PmtTypeCount VARCHAR2(100) PATH 'PmtTypeCount' ,
    PmtTypeAmt VARCHAR2(100) PATH 'PmtTypeAmt'
    Because this way the XML file needs to reside on the DB server.
    I am looking into other option of loading the XML file into a CLOB column of a table and reading it from that column.
    I did a couple of tests and feel that this way also the XML file has to reside on the Database Server itself. I am not sure if this is correct or if there is any problem with our TEST instance.
    ++Can anyone let me know if i need to have the XML file on the DB server instead of the Application server to load into a CLOB column of table ??++
    ++Or++
    ++Is there any other workaround for me to load XML into Oracle Tables, while having the XML file on Application Server.++
    Your immediate help is appreciated. I need to get past this ASAP.
    Thanks in Advance.
    VJ

    1) Are you asking me to create a folder on Database directory which points to a folder on the Apps server ?I suggest creating an Oracle directory object (a database object) pointing to a real location (folder) on Application server.
    we DONOT want a hand shake between the DB Server and the APPS server.I don't see where the problem is.
    I'm not familiar with Apps R12 but there's no doubt the two servers are already communicating, at least App server should be able to access the DB for the whole thing to run.
    As I said :
    One way or another, the data has to make its way to the database, there's no workaround to that.How do you imagine the data will end up in a database table if it doesn't come to the DB server?
    There's no magical method out there, both servers have to communicate at some point.
    About client-server approaches (client being here the App server), you can read about accessing the XML DB repository in the XML DB Developer's Guide : http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/appdev.112/e23094/toc.htm
    Other option : SQL*Loader can load a CLOB, or an XMLType column too

  • EhP1 - Unable to create XML file in Solman

    Hi all,
    I need some assistance
    I am trying to upgrade our XI system to EhP1 - SP04. I use Maintenance Optimizer in our Solution Manager (SAP EHP 1 for SAP Solution Manager 7.0) to select the necessary files for my upgrade. The XI system has been set up in SMSY an given a Logical Component. Also, added to the Solution Landscape. I use the SAPehpi-installer to upgrade XI.
    However, when I get to section three, I am supposed to provide the SMSDXML.xml file. This file is not created by our Solution Manager for some reason. The file, as I understand it, is supposed to be generated automatically during Maintenance Optimizer. But when I check the EPS and EPS/in folder of our solman, the file is not to be found. I have also checked the parameter DIR_EPS_ROOT in RZ11. It is correct. The authorization has been set to full on group Everyone, just to check if that could be the problem, but with no luck.
    When I use transaction /n/tmwflow/mopz_stack i am able to view the XML file (I assume that it is the correct file), but any attempt to copy the text displayed, and to save it as an XML-file has not resulted in any success.
    The only thing I have to go on, is a warning displayed in Maintenance Optimizer, stating: "Warning - No SLM configured in system - <SID>. Every document etc, Iu2019ve read sais that one can use Software Lifecycle Manager as an alternative to Download Basket. I havenu2019t seen SLM listed as a prereq, so I donu2019t believe that this could be the reason why the XML-file is not generated.
    Is there some setup/configuration Iu2019ve missed?
    Any help will be much appreciated!
    Best Regards,
    Stian

    1022704 Upgrade phase EHP_INCLUSION and SPSTACK_REQUEST
    1277035 Solution Manager: EHP4 product data missing

    I downloaded the SPSTab.xml from SMP, but it didnt work. It gave an error: "The selected configuration file ("C:EHP1SPSTab.xml") is not usable. Reason: "Stackfile not found""
    I have used the dockument in the link you provided as a basis for my upgrade. So I still need this to work in order to upgrade my XI Netweaver 7.0 to Enhancement Package 1...
    In the document you provided:
    Section 3 SAP Solution Manager
    3.1 Support Package Level of SAP Solution Manager (Check - Mine is EHP1)
    3.2 System Landscape (SMSY) of SAP Solution Manager (Check - as stated above in opening post)
    3.3 SAP Solution Manager Maintenance Optimizer (Check)
    3.4 SAP Solution Manager Troubleshooting: (Check)
    3.4.4 No Stack Configuration File is generated: This is the core of my problem... I have read the notes listed, and run the IMG activity under Maintenance Optimizer, as per note 1134872. I get an warning stating "SAP ChaRM auto-configuration warnings" This could be the source of the problem, but in the thread Re: Message no. IMG_FASTCONF028  in Charm SolManiac says that it is nothing to worry about.
    So to summarise:
    I an still unable to generate XML file in Solman, and I am uable to get the XML downloaded from SMP to work with SAPehpi.
    BR
    Stian
    (EDIT: I am however not shure if the settings under SMSY etc are 100% correct, but in my mind, that should prevent Maintenance Optimizer from generating the XML file)
