Importing Final Cut XML Hangs Premiere Pro CC 2014

I am posting this more as a question as to how to report hangs or console reports of PP crashes.
I have a Final Cut Pro project that I wanted to migrate to Premiere Pro using the XML route. When I import the XML from Final Cut, the app hangs with a series of console messages. I think it can't import the DVCPro HD audio and many of the filters used in the Final Cut Project also cause this hang.
On import, a rectangle dialog box appears with no content in it - just a white box. Then the pinwheel of death.
Here are some of the console messages:
11/21/14 10:50:24.289 AM Adobe Premiere Pro CC 2014[1051]: Error loading /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/HAL/DVCPROHDAudio.plugin/Contents/MacOS/DVCPROHDAudio: dlopen(/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/HAL/DVCPROHDAudio.plugin/Contents/MacOS/DVCPROHDAudio, 262): no suitable image found. Did find:

This also generates an Adobe Premiere Pro hang log in the console system diagnostics.

Sort of a work around I am testing:
I have a cool script to open FCPro projects in AE. Sort of a free Automatic Duck. I was going to do this:
Remove all effects and proprietary tracks in FCPro, as some cause problems with this script. Trial and error here.
Use the free script FCP2AE to export to AE (it's hard to find now)
Open the timeline in AE via the script FCP2AE
Export that from AE as PPProCC 2014 project
Open in PPCC2014
That may work, it may also work just to remove all effects and then save the XML and open in PP CC 2014. Again sometimes it does work. The simpler the FCPro project the better.
Another option
I was able to open the FCPro audio only OMF in Audition. Then I exported via XML FCPro format from Audition and this opened the audio tracks in PPCC2014. The stereo tracks were broken and placed on two mono tracks so you'll have to address that one.

Converted from Final Cut 7 to Premiere Pro CC

Hello totally awesome community of hard working people who make cool things!
I am converting from Final Cut 7 to Premiere Pro CC. I've been in for 1 day and am impressed that many of the shortcuts are the same.
I have much to learn and am studying every day.
Do you have any recommendations for any great free video tutorial series on this software?
Thanks!
Check out the film I made with Final Cut 7. I'm excited about Premiere Pro CC because it will save me a lot of time!!

Can't import Final Cut XML file into Premiere Pro CS4 MAC

Hello, I'm traying to import FCP Studio 2 XML file into Adobe Premiere Pro CS4for the purpose of then color correcting the project in Adobe After Effects.
I followed all the rules of exporting XML files from my Final Cut Studio 2 timeline, then closed FCP, opened Adobe Premiere CS4 and when I go to Import option XML file is greyed out. I can't select the XML file...
Could someone tell me what I'm doing wrong? Thank you so much

I'll just say that the high end AE users list I frequent suggests that the more common workflow is to bring AE to FCP for color correction. Isn't that one of FCP's strengths?
Also, to the extent that you want to process an FCP project in AE, look for the best way to bring it directly, not through Premiere. Ask in the AE forum what opinions people have. Mac and PC types use AE, but my impression is that only a small proportion of those users use Premiere.

Exporting Final Cut prjects for Premiere Pro

Hello,
I wanted to know if some knows what would be the best and quickest way to export a project from final cut in a format that will allow me to import that file in Premiere. I know i can export the final cut project as a quciktime movie but that converting process takes FOREVER. I was wondering if there is a way around quick time.

Eddie points out something that will likely help you, though maybe not in time.
First, I'd make a complete backup of your FCP Project onto an external HDD - do not know FCP, so cannot help you with exactly the best way to do this. Get everything and keep the folder structure the same.
Though it does take time, I'd also do the .MOV Export from FCP, as the ultimate backup and a possible failsafe, should the CS4 4.1 still not get it right. You might have to convert your .MOV file outside of either FCP, or PrPro, but you will have it.
Last, if you've been a good student (and I'd guess that you have been), I'll bet that your instructor would grant you access to the lab's Mac and FCP, especially since this was a project for this semester. Now, if you are moving away from university, that might throw a monkeywrench into things, but if your local to the shcool, talk to your professor now, and make arrangements. I used my film school's editing booth for a few years after graduation with the department's permission - sweet, since time on an 8-plate Moviola was expensive as heck way back then.
Good luck, and make sure to get everything and I do mean EVERYTHING on your external HDD.

SSD for OS, Final Cut X and Premiere Pro CS6?

We're looking at specs for new iMacs for our upcoming FY13 purchases. Our install will consist of Mac OS, Office 2011, Final Cut X, Motion, Compressor, CS6 Master Collection. Our process includes all video production being done using external drives. I'm trying to decide if the 256GB SSD internal drive option will be sufficient for the install we have in mind. I know all the software will fit, with plenty of room to spare, and we'd like to take advantage of the increased performance of a SSD boot drive, I'm just a little concerned about the capacity.
Maybe 256GB is perfectly fine since all production will be from and to external storage?
What thoughts or suggestions do you all have? Thanks.

Using the same media? Very likely.
Using the same project file? Possibly, but there could be issues. PP can both import and export FCP XML files, but it's far from a perfect translation for every possible sequence.

Porblems importing Canon C300 footage into Premiere Pro CC 2014: only import 30 seconds

Hi! I'm having problems importing Canon C300 footage into Adobe Premiere Pro 2014. I'm taking the files directly from the media browser to I can only import the first 30 seconds of each clip.
Why can be that? Do I need a specific plugin?
Thaks for your help

Since you did not perform the copy process yourself, my thinking is that maybe something went wrong when it was done. Far too many people don't understand or follow the process that works.
My recommendation would be to get your hands on the cards and do it again, making sure to use only Explorer or Finder for the task.

Why can't i import an avi file into premiere pro cc 2014?

how do import an avi file when i try to in comes up saying that the file format is unsupported format?

mattyb1988,
Please post sufficient information about your AVI file so people can help solve your problem. Did you create the AVI file or get it from somewhere else? Read this page and search for "AVI" to find out more: Troubleshoot video files.
Hope this helps.

I am trying to screen capture a simulation session in captivate 6 and then edit it in premiere pro cc 2014 when I import the video into premiere, it is blurry

Caveat - I am relatively new to adobe captivate and premiere, so hopefully this is a simple setting issue that I have not been able to figure out. When I do a video capture in captivate 6 the output mp4 is very clear. If I play it in windows media player it is crisp and clear. If I import that same mp4 into Premiere Pro CC 2014, it is very blurry. My simulation has gauges and dials that need to be clear and I need to "mix" audio, narration, and system sounds into this video. Any help would be extremely appreciated!

OK - back to my caveat. When I select preferences in Premiere and look at the playback setting, I get options for Preroll, Postroll, Step forward/back many, mercury transmit, Audio device, Adobe DV and disable video output when in backgroud (all of which I am not smart enough to comprehend).
I apologize for my ignorance. So as I continued to read your question, I, of course googled "how to set playback resolution in premiere pro" and I learned how to do that.... They were set to 1/2. I adjusted to full and it seems to be clear now.... I think you just helped me, help myself. Thank you! Did I get it right? Is there any more you can recommend when it comes to taking a screen capture video and making it into an awesome demo?
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you,
Troy

Problems with XML import from FCP 7 to Premiere Pro CS6

Afternoon everyone.
I'm currently trying to import an FCP 7 project file that I want to now edit and tweak in Premiere Pro (have recently realised i've been using Premiere far more so would like to start making a full switch over).
I've gathered my original FCP project and exported via XML (Apple Interchange Format, Version 5) and imported it into a blank Premiere Pro project. However it gets to the import window, progresses fully to 100% and then throws this error message at me, and I can't seem to figure out why.
I've tried exporting an XML for the whole project, with all bins/sequences/clips etc. I've also tried individual sequences/bins, and none of them want to import.
Does anyone know why this is happening?
Thanks,
Adam

Okay, after trying both steps in the document above, the missing codecs/preview presets still aren't available when I go to File>New>Sequence. I guess that's the only way to check if they have installed correctly/activated correctly right? It says it's correctly activated though so not sure why it's doing this.
Are these presets also missing in the trial verison of the software?

How do you import final cut pro projects into imovie?
(like you create a project in final cut but i want to save it, and import it into imovie..

Hi -
Mr. Ross is right, there is no direct way to export your project with all it's elements into iMovie.
If, on the other hand, you have a completed sequence in FCP that you want to export as a finished element, then import into iMovie for you to re-edit or apply titles, music, etc. you would:
In FCP:
Click on the Sequence Icon you want to export in your browser.
Go to the menu File > Export > Quicktime Movie. Give your movie a name a navigate to where you want it stored. Make sure you choose Settings: Current Settings and have the Make Movie Self Contained checked. Click Save.
Close FCP and open iMovie.
In iMovie:
Go to the menu File > Import > Movies and navigate to the movie you just exported from FCP. Choose if you want your movie imported in it's original size, etc.
Click Import. Your movie will be imported into iMovie.
Note that using this method only gives you only the elements that made up your FCP sequence, so this may not give you the flexibility you need.
Hope this helps.

Adobe Premiere Pro CC not opening an xml file created in Adobe Premiere Pro CC 2014

Hello,
I had created a project using Adobe Premiere CC 2014 which had some minor changes, which were going to be done by my boss, who uses Premiere Pro CC. However the project file of Adobe Premiere CC 2014 was not getting opened in Premiere Pro CC giving a message of type that as this file was created in a newer version of Premiere, it cannot be opened. After searching on this forum I found that we have to convert the Premiere Pro CC 2014 project file to XML file which can be then imported onto Premiere CC. So I created a XML file by selecting File-> Export -> Final Cut Pro XML and sent it to my boss. However even the xml file is not getting opened after being imported onto Premiere Pro CC giving an error of sorts, Cannot open the file since there is a problem with the codecs.
Have I done something wrong? Please guide me since I am a beginner to the Adobe environment and would very much appreciate any help.
Thank you.

Indeed..... but are they fully documented, includuing Adobe's implementation of Multicam?
Collapsing them should really be no more than a day or two of work for an Adobe engineer and a day of beta testing. Seriously. Lots of people want this - it only takes a few minutes with google to find people struggling with this exact problem. Premiere Pro Multicam --> Resolve.
Since we do a lot of multicam work it's something that's important to us.
Lots of other people never go near multicam, so I guess for them it's something they really don't care about.
I currently have > 22 hours of multicam sequences that need primary colour correction and follow on grading..... resolve would be the best choice by far.

A Final Cutter Tries Out Premiere Pro

I found this article on Creative Cow. An interesting read and an overall good review for Adobe.
Most of the good things will come as no surprise to longtime Premiere users, and most of the bad things are not so if you're already used to the way Adobe organizes (though in a few cases, not bad homework for the Adobe development team)! Enjoy.
http://library.creativecow.net/kobler_helmut/FCP-vs-Premiere-Pro/1

Some highlights for the busy FCP-to-PP wannbe.
" I was impressed with how much further ahead Premiere was compared to Final Cut 7 (importing native footage, the Mercury Engine's high performance, and tight integration with other must-have tools)."
"Premiere's overall layout is very Final Cut-esque."
"Adobe makes it easier for Final Cut users to try out Premiere, thanks to the inclusion of a template of keyboard shortcuts inspired by Final Cut"
"...it's very nice not to transcode media into ProRes."
"There's a dynamic Search field in the Project window. That's a little quick erand easier than Final Cut's clunky Find... function.
"Adobe has gotten religion about metadata. This is a nice improvement over Final Cut 7, which has virtually no inter-application metadata support (unless you're also using the now-cancelled Final Cut Server)."
"Premiere's editing tools work much like Final Cut's. All the essentials are there"
"If I had tried to do this effects-heavy work with After Effects and Final Cut, I think it would have taken me an extra 2-3 days of re-rendering and importing effects."
"When I imported a Photoshop file and edited it on Premiere's Timeline, any changes I later made to the file would also automatically reflect on the Timeline"
"I regularly uploaded small samples of my video to an FTP server for client review. Fortunately, doing all that was just as easy with Premiere."
"When I exported video from Premiere or from the Adobe Media Encoder, both apps sped things up considerably by using all the cores of my 8-core Mac Pro. That was very nice, after years of watching Compressor ignore most of my Mac's horsepower."
"When you export video directly from Premiere or use Media Encoder, you can embed the exported videos with a ton of metadata. Compressor can't touch that."
"I can definitely say that First Contact with Premiere was impressive and compelling. And beyond the application itself, I have a lot more confidence in Adobe's ability to deliver professional solutions than I do Apple's."

How do I import an MKV file into Premiere Pro CS6?

How do I import an MKV file into Premiere Pro CS6?

Premiere Pro CS6 doesn't support MKV formats. To import MKV to Premiere Pro CS6, a recommended solution is to convert MKV to AVI.
I've been reading so many different forums on how to convert MKV to AVI. Finally, I summarised three solutions:
First one: HandBrake . This tool is a free and open-source multi-threaded transcoding app. It supports nearly any videos including MKV format and has Mac version and Windows version.
Cons:
1. HandBrake is too professional to handle for most people;
2. It doesn't support MOV as output format.
Second one: there are many third party software which supports converting MKV to AVI. I just test one of them. It's professional yet easy to use and the service is excellent. And there is a step by step guide about how to use this tool .
Cons:
1. Most of them are not free.
Third one: Online-Converter . This kind of converter does a great job on file conversion.
Cons:
1. Like most online converters, the free version of this tool only allows you to convert videos smaller than 100MB. It's too small for video conversion;
2.Your MKV video should be upload to the internet to be converted. This means the risk of pravite information leak is possible.

Ingesting xa20 slow motion footage into final cut 7 or premiere

does canon have step-by-step instructions for ingesting xa20 slow motion footage into final cut 7 or premiere?

Hi davidframe!
Thanks for posting.
Not having made those applications themselves, Canon does not have step-by-step instructions for bringing slow motion footage into Final Cut Pro or Premiere. However, I am sure either Apple or Adobe have some helpful instructions they can provide if you contact them directly.

I am traveling with my macbook pro and I forgot to install final cut express and quicktime pro before I left. How can I in a way download them for free on my laptop from where I am? I need them and don't want naturally to buy them again!!!
Thank you

Assuming you purchased QT Pro, you can always download it again at no extra charge by logging in to your Apple account.
Regarding FCE, there is no way to download & install the product. You need an original FCE install disk and your FCE serial number.
Final Cut Pro X (aka FCPX) can be purchased & downloaded from the App Store.
