Unable to ingest file- "reason:import xmp failed!"

I have been trying to ingest an 8mm video file into prelude and get the error message "reason:import xmp failed!". I have ingested many other 8 mm files with no problems. I tried to import it in to premiere pro and it said file type not recognized. It opens fine in quicktime. It was initially captured into final cut pro as a simple DV-NTSC.
Any thoughts from anyone?
Thanks very much.

Hi Wes - The only place I can upload it, is to "yousendit" which has a 2 gb limit. Unfortunately all of the files are from video tapes and are 5-18 GB. I tried re-recapturing a short segment of one of the files but  prelude ingested it just fine.
The back-story on this is that I have captured over 50, 8mm tapes using finalcut 5 on my G5 over the last 9 years.  They were captured as DV-ntsc. I just purchased an iMac and production premium, and plugged the external drives with the files on them into  the iMac. All but 6 files are fine with the remaining 6 having this problem.  I can easily see which files are a problem in the ingest dialog box when there is no thumbnail but only a generic quicktime icon. They will all open in quicktime.
I looked at the info box and they all look the same. Do you have any ideas about what I could check? Are there some hidden settings accesible with and option or command + key? It seems like there is something simple happening.
Do you have a suggestion of where I coud upload a file?
Thanks very much for your help.

  • "reason: import xmp failed"

    Is anyone receiving the error message "reason: import xmp failed" when ingesting audio (.wav) files into Prelude CS6? Is there a fix?

    I try to ingest  files from an external hard drive thats connected via USB to my laptop. The original files were recorded with a Panasonic camera on P2 cards. I just copied them from the cards to my hard drive. From around 400 files in those folders I try to ingest around 350 fail in Pl. I think all of my audio, video and clip files (mxf and xml files) fail to ingest proberly.
    The funny thing is they work fine in Pr!
    What should I do differently?
    Here is one that fails to ingest right in Pl but does can be played perfectly fine in Pr:
    http://dfiles.eu/files/l5fey5wc9
    I'm afraid I cannot download the file you offered, when I click the download button nothing happens.
    However I think I can reproduce what you describe if I select to ingest a FOLDER that represents a P2 card. The solution is to open the folder so that the Ingest Dialog views the contained clips as "Panasonic P2". Then select the clips and proceed to ingest.

  • Attempting to transcode .mpgv files, XMP failed

    I was given a hard drive full of files and asked to transcode them to be uploaded to vimeo (suggested settings).
    I am currently having trouble with a bunch of files that have had their extensions changed (to .mov from I don't know what) or removed.
    When I open them up in VLC the inspector lists them as MPEG-1/2 video (mpgv), Decoded Format Planar 4:2:0 YUV, with Audio as 2 streams, each PCM S16 LE (sowt)...
    I've tried using Prelude, Adobe Premiere, and Adobe Media Encoder (CS6) with no luck.
    When I try to ingest them in Prelude to send to Premiere the file fails with "Reason: Import XMP Failed!"
    If I try to ingest in AME I get a failure "this is not an accepted codec"
    I have searched for any info on this type of codec but I am at a loss...
    I have tried changing the extension to .mpg, and was able to ingest (in Prelude, Premiere and AME), but what I got with each was a mostly green screen with some purple silhouttes. Not the image I wanted.
    Does anyone know of a work around for this?? I really need to get these files transcoded ASAP.
    *I'm working on a mac.
    Thank you!

  • Import Wizard fails to export - object could not be written in the ids-file

    Hello,
    the complete export of the BO environment into a biar-file with the import wizard fails. In the wizard's dialog every option is choosen as "all". When the export is started it stops already in the folder objects. The log file says the object allocation could not be written in the ids-file. So I presume a problem with references.
    In order to figure out which object is responsible for the error I varied the export and finally identified the "repository objects" as the the responsible type of objects. When I now run the export and only use the needed repository objects it works fine.
    But I don't know, if export is complete (I presume it).
    Has anyone a idea what the reason can be for this problem? Can it be fixed in the database? This kind of export did work fine the week before.
    thanks, matthias

    Could you quote the entire error message, word-for-word, verbatim? What Import settings are you using ... Copy, Move, Add?
    Most likely you have a permissions issue, but it will be much more clear to me if I can see the entire message.

  • Failed to read data from report file Reason: The table could not be found.

    Connection used Views, ODBC System DSN is setup properly.
    Approach for import from business view manager and import wizard.  both methods failed to import the Business View and underlying reports.
    I figure I may have imported the Business View wrong? From Business View Manager I exported from my dev server then imported to prod server.
    Apparently I learned exporting my business view also includes the Data Connections that the Business Views are dependent upon.
    So which ever folder you specify it copies it there. Originally the all Data Connections Resides on the root folder. To return it to the original location. I deleted what I had exported. Exported this time to the root folder, then only deleted the business views, foundation, elements. Then exported again to the folder where I intended then only deleted the Data Connection.
    Makes any sense? So I then had to re point the business views and all the dependent objects to the data connection that resides in the root folder.
    I tested the connection, it works fine. I properly updated my crystal reports to the business view in production. Did a sample extract it works as expected.
    However when i try to publish, either from Crystal or Publish wizard i get the same error?
    As a work around i am thinking, after updating the business view in the crystal reports, shall i re map the fields?? or reexport the business views again?
    Any help will be surely appreciated.

  • Premiere Pro CC v7.0 - MP3s corrupted during import with "Write XMP ID to Files on Import"

    Premiere Pro CC v7.0 - original MP3s corrupted during import with default "Write XMP ID to Files on Import" option
    I have just started using a Trial version of Premiere.
    I have a folder full of corrupted MP3 files after attempting to import them into Premiere.
    After searching these forums I found that some other people have had corruption issues during import of media and it was related to the Preferences->Media->"Write XMP ID to Files on Import" option.
    I attempted to import additional MP3s (this time making backups first) with and without the Write XMP ID option, and have found that this is where the issue is.
    While the MP3 files still fail to be imported, the files are not corrupted in the process when the Write XMP ID option is unchecked.
    Writing to files that are being imported seems to me like unexpected behaviour for any software.
    Adobe please advise!
    Is there any way to recover my original MP3 collection?

    What exactly is wrong with them?

  • Geotagging raws/ importing xmp files

    I'm shooting exclusively in Sony ARW raw format and look for an solution, now for over a year, to geotag my images inside Aperture - so far with no success. It seems to be an unholy alliance between Sony, not allowing to embed geotagging information into their RAW formats, and Aperture being unable to import xmp sidecar files.
    I can import import a folder containing ARW files with accompanying xmp files (created with an application like Geotag and containing the geotagging information for the unaltered RAWs) into Lightroom, and have all geotagging information incorporated into the EXIF fields of the Lightroom database automatically.
    But so far I found no way to get this information into Aperture, neither natively, nor with the help of Automator actions, AppleScripts or plugins.
    I really hope, the next version of Aperture improves on this. Meanwhile I've downloaded the Lightroom 3 beta to check whether this could become an alternative to Aperture ...

    Sorry for answering my own post, but I figured out a slight work around, and others may be interested:
    I have my photos arranged in folders containing 75-125 photos each. For each photo I created an iView catalog. Each catalog was then imported into the appropriate album in Aperture using Annoture.
    My struggle earlier was trying to load all my images into a single iView catalog. Annoture seemed to double count images, and choke when synchronizing large numbers of pictures (1000+).

  • File importer detected an inconsistency in the file stucture of (file name). Reading and writing this file's metadata (XMP) has been disabled.

    I have duplicated a project to work on another computer. The project opens fine but when I import new footage/audio files I get this message. "File importer detected an inconsistency in the file stucture of (file name). Reading and writing this file's metadata (XMP) has been disabled." Then I can't play my timeline and Premier Pro crashes.  I have to force quit and restart my computer to continue working. What does this error really mean? How do you rectify?
    Our workflow requires that we duplicate projects to make updates because we are frequently revising but need to keep original project unchanged and intact.

    I have a similar issue and message , but occurs when I import AVI clips from OnLocation CS4 to Premier Pro CS4.

  • Where is saved the Preference for "Write XMP IDs to Files on Import"?

    Hello,
    In a Jsx, I test if the "CreateLayerMarkersFromFootageXMP" is activated in the AE preferences with:
    app.preferences.getPrefAsBool( "Metadata", "CreateLayerMarkersFromFootageXMP" );
    But I cannot do the same for this one:
    "Write XMP IDs to Files on Import", which is also in the Preference Panel, but not saved in the Preference files I think.
    Or if it's saved in, where? And how can I check it in ExtendedScript?
    Thanks.

    It appears that the Metadata section only carries that one pref it seems.
    ["Metadata"]
              "CreateLayerMarkersFromFootageXMP" = 01
    The only other XMP prefs I've found in the AE CC files are:

  • Importing .xmp sidecar file doesn't populate IPTC info??

    Good evening everyone.  I've been trying to import .xmp files alongside some of my old movies to save me from having to retype the IPTC info such as location, etc.  I have a folder which contains the .mov file I want to import, along with the .xmp file of the exact same name.  I thought this was automatic (at least from my perspective), put I guess not?  The .mov file imports just fine, but Aperture doesn't seem to populate any of the metadata fields with any info from the .xmp file.  I've tried this with different videos/xmp sidecar files with no luck.  Am I stuck re-entering all the metadata by hand?  I really don't have much info, but I have several hundred files I'm trying to re-import, so it could be a long week.  In case it helps, here's the xmp sidecar file that was created when I used iView Media Pro software pre-Aperture:

    The Photoshop and/or Bridge forums would be more likely places to get answers to your questions. This forum is inhabited more by programmer types interested in implementing the XMP specification in applications we write.
    I'd expect CS2 to ignore CS1 panels so I doubt that's the issue. Panels don't interfere with each other--they just offer different views of the data. In any case, move the extra panels to your desktop and see what happens.
    As far as I know, all you need to do on the Mac is drag the CS1 application folder to the trash to uninstall it.

  • Import XMP Metadata From File

    In Beta4, the Import XMP Metadata From File command would import data found in an xmp file.
    In V1, it's not working...or am I missing something.
    (I do understand that Export XMP to File will write the data into the image file itself.)
    Ideas?
    Pete

    Here's a sample xmp I created...in case it's wrong..but it was working in B4.<br /><br /><x:xmpmeta xmlns:x="adobe:ns:meta/" x:xmptk="Adobe XMP Toolkit 3.3-016, build -num-, -date-"><br /> <rdf:RDF xmlns:rdf="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#"><br />   <rdf:Description rdf:about=""<br /> xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/"><br />    <dc:description><br />     <rdf:Alt><br />      <rdf:li xml:lang="x-default">: Geese at sunset.

  • POST fails on T5140 server.   POST shows errors about "Unable to create files".  Server won't boot

    All,
    Need any help that someone can provide.  Currently I have a T5140 server.   Yesterday it crashed unexpectedly. We were able to reboot the system and it come back up with the service light on.  Service light was indicating a memory DIMM problem.   We powered down the server to replace the memory modules that had service led showing for them.   After powering the system on, it never gets past POST now.  We attached a serial console to the ILOM and watch the post.   POST starts normally. Then we start to see messages about "unable to create files.  Finally POST gets to a point where it looks like it is finishing but hangs.   It hangs at the point where it say that it is initiating run level 3.  But it just sits there and never boots the system.  Any ideas?   Is this a motherboard issue that really cemented itself when the power was removed to the system?  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  We are stuck.
    Thanks.

    I have had this same issue, unfortunately you will need to place a service call for a field tech to come on-site and replace the failty DIMM. The T5140 WILL NOT BOOT if any one or more DIMMs fail to POST.
    The only partial solution is to disable the CPU that is connected to the bad DIMM so the system will successfully boot up in degraded mode. But I would not run the box like that for long.
    You need to call service a.s.a.p.

  • LR5 and xmp files on import

    Hi,
    I have the trial of LR5 and I trid now to geotag my pictures. To do so, I convert the .gpx file to xmp with geosetter. The XMP are created but when I import them into LR, the GPS position is not imported. But If I embed the GPS info into the raw files (cr2) the position is imported but I'd like to keep the raw file untouched so this is why I use the XMP.
    When I try to "update metadata" it's not working.
    So how can I make lightroom to read the xmp files on import ????
    Thanks.

    Strange
    Here is the content of an XMP file created by GeoSetter

  • Batch Import .XMP info into DNG Files

    I have a few thousand Canon 5D RAW files that have accompanying XMP files created by PS CS2 containing of a lot of metadata that I manually typed in for each photo.
    Because of some better ICC profile features in DXO Optics Pro 4.x, I want to batch process my Canon 5D raw files (with XMP EXIF data) by DXO Pro into DNG. My problem is how to batch incorporate the XMP data into the resulting DNG file. It doesn't appear
    I found a way I can manually import the data in CS3 for a single photo. However, that's no good for 3000 photos.
    Does anyone have a simple batch method that will do what I want? The XMP files are all named the same as the RAW files, so matching up the files is a piece of cake.
    Could I create an action that would somehow open the new DXO generated DNG file, and import the XMP file using some type of filename matching process?

    Why not simply run the DNG Converter on that folder? It will merge the XMP sidecars into the resultant DNG files.
