XML From Premier ReCaptured in FCP

So my situation is that I have old Adobe Premier projects that I would like to have editing access to for future re-edits when I transition into Final Cut. The source videos are in MPEG-2. When I tried exporting the XML file and exporting the source files to an external hard drive to use with my Mac, I encountered reconnect and codec issues.
Is their a better workflow to accomplish this transition other than transcoding all the media using something like StreamClip and rebuilding my edit? I was thinking maybe the xml file imported in FCP could then give me a recapture option so I could just bring all the content back through FCP. Any thoughts, suggestions???

It's possible that fcp may have a problem with mpeg2 clips. If so, try compressor. If that doesn't work, try mpeg streamclip. You may have to eye match the clips into the timeline as I doubt source timecode (if there is any) will come across the conversion of the media. Hopefully you've got a quicktime of your premiere finish

Hi Dennis I re-format my MACPRO 8 Core and I installed Final Cut Studio Suite and CS5 Premium (no CS4)
I install Blackmagick driver Decklink 7.6.3
If I open the After Effects and setting preview card blackmagic, I see the preview in external monitor.
If I open the Premiere Pro and setting preview, I don't see the blackmagic card but the second monitor, DV....etc.
In Premiere I see the blackmagic preset, but no the preview card.
I have a second question.
About Red file I want editing in Premiere Pro and i whant color correct in Apple Color from FCP.
My problem is: my color program crash when I send file form FCP to Color (random mode)

XML from FCP to FCE

Hi! I have FCP 7.0.3, and my friend has FCE 4.0.1. We're trying to work collectively, (He's doing the rough cut of our movie, then we're start interfacing between the two programs once we're working on the final cut) but I have a problem. I can open FCE files in FCP, but he can't open FCP project files in FCE, as I had expected. So the work around that I have found, through lots of internet searching, is that I can export XML files, and then he can import them into FCE, and then he'd have the exported sequence. But when I try it, he gets error messages. The only things I can think of is that I have the footage imported as Apple ProRes, and FCE doesn't recognize that kind of codec. Also, I don't know what version I should export the XML as (1 through 5). Help!
Thanks!
Paul

Here's one reply to a thread that is somewhat on this topic, from Creative Cow.
Re: Final Cut Express compatibility with FCP
by Mark Thurstlic on Mar 23, 2011 at 1:44:24 pm
Hi there
I had a similar issue with bring FCP files back into FCE. After fiddling around a bit I found that the solution lies in Exporting an XML file from FCP. What you need to do is, while in FCP click on FILE--EXPORT--XML
Then from the format pull down, select the version # that is compatible with your version of FCE. I found the "Apple XML Interchange Format, version 4" works with FCE v4.0.1. Then in FCE Import the XML file by FILE--IMPORT--FCP XML From Imovie.
An issue worth noting is that FCP seems to only export individual sequences at a time not entire projects. So if you have more then one sequence in a project that you would like to import into FCE you'll have to export them as XMLs one at a time.
Hope this helps

Xml from FCP 7 to Premiere Pro CC issues

FCP 7 project exported using XML (no items highlighted in FCP) and imported into Premiere. All sequences and bins etc "seemed" to transfer fine. HOWEVER, some of the bins/folders that were transfered did not contain all of the clips as the original. Best I can tell, any "copies" of a clip that may be in another bin WILL NOT TRANSFER. Even though the XML file shows a certain clip listed, if it is a copy of a clip already in the project- Premiere will not import it. Needless to say, this has been a real head scratcher. Anybody have a similar experience?

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?

XML from Final Cut Pro 7.0.2

I have one single text clip in the FCP sequence to test this XML transfer. The text is centered. When imported into Premiere 6, the text is a different font and is up on the upper left corner.
I have a credit sequence that I need to get into After Effects from FCP. For some reason, Premiere is not translation correctly. Few weeks ago, I was trying to import XML from FCP with some video clips and they would be in the wrong time. I've a feeling the Premiere isn't working as it should be. I just reinstalled Premiere a few days ago and the issue is a problem. I did try another FCP XML export from from another system and version and Premiere is not translating text properly. There's no plugins or trasitions, just basic text or video.
What can I do get this working?

My experience with XMLs from FCP is that text in particular doesn't work correctly. To the point where we've had numerous system crashes and have pinpointed it as being due to text imported from an XML. Markers brought in the same way are also very problematic. We've been deleting any text before XMLing any sequences, and then recreating the text within Premiere or After Effects.

Command to Export project as Final Cut Pro XML from jsx script

Hi All,
Can somebody get me the command to export the project as final cut pro xml from jsx script.
I was using the extension builder script earlier for cs6 panel development, so we were using pjct.exportFinalCutProXML("pathname");
Now I am working for panel in Premiere CC so working on HTML 5 panel and qe dom scripting(.jsx).
In some jsx examples i got there is script to export sequence as final cut pro xml but cannot get the code for project export.
project.activeSequence.exportAsFinalCutProXML(entire_out_path);
Also please let me know if there are any kind of reference available about all the functions and properties in the pe dom scripting for premiere pro cc.
I am using premiere pro cc 7.1, windows 7, Eclipse Kepler.
Thanks in advance,
Anoop NR

When you reimport the exported project XML to FCP, do you get the full project or just the single bin/sequence? If you get the full project then it sounds like you need Premiere help, not FCP help ... have you tried asking on the Adobe forums? If you only get the single bin/sequence then it seems you might have inadvertently selected those prior to creating the project export. Try making sure that your FCP Browser window is active and that you have not selected anything within that window prior to using the File > Export > XML command. If that still causes issue then you might try using an earlier FCP XML version.
Hope it helps

Audio incorrectly translated in XML from FCP7 to Premiere Pro

Hi,
I'm sure others are dealing with this also, XMLs from FCP7 to Premiere 6.0.2 not translating audio levels correctly. I'm working on 10 episodes @ 30 min each and the rough cut of approx. 450 to 500 shots, all the audio is faded to -999db!?! Is there a work around for this? Whern I export an XML from the newly created Premiere project and import that into a new Premiere project, there's crazy keyframes all over the place so I really don't know what's going on!
Any advice would be so much appreciated!
My system -
Mac pro 4,1 - OS 10.8.3
Premiere pro 6.0.2
Drivers up to date...
Thanks in advance,
danny

Hi Kevin,
Yes I have filled out a bug report. I've since learned a 'fixit' though, which is to select all the audio and right-click and choose 'Remove Effects' from the menu and then click 'Volume' from the 'Intrinsic Effects' section and click 'Ok'. This set all volume back to 0db. I'm just moving over to Adobe from many years in FCP (common scenario at the moment...) and as such, still learning all the little tricks etc.
Cheers,
danny
EDIT: Obviously if you're importing a rough cut from FCP7 this 'fixit' doesn't work because all audio work will be lost. I've had to set a key frame on each audio clip to maintain all the audio work that had been done... Very frustrating!

Migration from premier

Goo day professionals, my company is switching to final cut pro from premier so I am a brand new user. I have watched a lot of training DVDs but one thing baffles me. let me explain, I imported an mpeg file (720X480) and it imported fine, dragged it on the time line, hot the space bar and cold not see or hear anything but a beeping noise. I googled and realize that it had to be rendered. Can you guide me on how to go about this so that it plays without having to render all the time? Remember I am new to final cut pro go easy on me. Thanks in advance.

Not directly related to your question but since I too am learning FCPX after a year of Premiere CS5.5, both of which have their pluses and minuses, I thought I'd give you a heads up to a great user manual available as an inexpensive download at
http://fcp.co/final-cut-pro/news/515-the-unofficial-graphic-enhanced-manual-for- fcpx
This guy has created a 65 page graphic manual which gives you a very good overview of the product from importing to basic organization and editing on the timeline. He's writing a more advanced version now. It's dirt cheap, even the printed version is not at all expensive, and well worth downloading.
You'll find some frustrating features with FCPX, particularly when you're used to working on the timeline as we are in Premiere, but with this graphic manual's help, I'm getting the hang of it now.

How can i import my color editing from apple color to fcp x

Hello mates,
I edited my project in FCPX 10.0.8 than i export XML file and open it with DaVinci Resolve to export it again for Apple Color. So far so good no problem. I edit my color in that program but when i said send to final cut pro it was opening with the old projects. I mean i can't see my color editing in that project. I can't figure out how can i import that file in fcp x. I tried to export an XML from color, but i couldn't open it with Davinci nor FCPX.
So i will be very glad if you help me..

FCPX does not read Color XML exports. You would need to export the finished footage in Color and reimport that into X. Resolve is free and offers a far more integrated workflow with X than Color ever will (as it's long been discontinued).

Importing a prores xml from fcp7 into premiere cs6

I'm finally making the switch from FCP7 to CS6. I'm trying to import an xml of a prores (1080p, 23.98, prores lt) sequence from FCP 7. It doesn't have any effects, titles, etc in it, yet Premiere keeps giving me the file import error ("this project contained a sequence that cannot be opened. No sequence preview preset file or codec could be associated with this sequence type").
I made sure that I created a sequence setting/preset that matches my prores sequence from FCP. If I try exporting the xml from FCP as a DV or DVCPROHD sequence, it imports just fine in Premiere. It just won't import the prores sequence (which is a bummer because all my FCP projects use ProRes).
I'm on a Mac Pro running Mountain Lion (10.8.2) and Premiere Pro 6.0.2.
Any advice or help is greatly appreciated!

I have a similar issue with a film I am trying to bring into PP from FCP. I will need to lift sequences from this film into a longer compile and add new sequences, and since FCP 7 is now dead in the water it makes sense to transfer my entire workflow to PP CS6. However, on import the XML file is showing fine in the timeline, but the sequence settings do not seem to have been imported properly and I am getting a 4:3 aspect frame ratio on a film that was 1440/1080, 16:9, square pixel, Pro Res HQ in FCP.
I have tried to set up a custom sequence in PP with the same settings and also with the frame set to 1920;1080, but no matter what i do I cannot seem to get the XML file to import correctly.
I have downloaded and installed the Pro Res codecs to Library/Quicktime but that does not seem to have worked.
Anyone else got a a bright idea? Otherwise I will need to continue this project in FCP, which does not seem like the right thing to do any more....

Generating an xml from a pl/sql procedure

Hi Friends,
I have come up with a requirement to generate an xml from a pl/sql procedure.
I did some R & D and also got some sample procedures but could not understand the datatypes being used.
The procedure declares variables like this:
doc                  xmldom.DOMDocument;
mainNode         xmldom.DOMNode;
headerElem      xmldom.DOMElement; Pls could anyone tell what do these xmldom.DOMDocument, xmldom.DOMNode and xmldom.DOMElement mean?
Later in the procedure, these variables are assigned values like
doc      := xmldom.newDOMDocument;
mainNode := xmldom.makenode(doc); This went a bouncer on me.
Pls help.
Thanks in advance ...!

How to generate XML from EBusiness suite ARXSGPO

Could someone tell me how I can generate XML from the EBusiness Suite Accounts Receivable report ARXSGPO.rdf I understand this report is called by a C program. I have tried changing the concurrent request to output format to XML the result does not resemble XML. Does anyone have any suggestions how I can generate XML from the ARXSGPO report?
Thanks,
Mark

Hi Mark
the next release of XMLP will have last page only support. The problem is that at the template layer you do not know how many lines are going to fit on the page, so you never know what is going to be the last page. The only way around it for now is to specify the number of lines to a page and then check when all the lines have been rendered and then render the remit portion.
I have a sample invoice that does the same, drop me a mail, you can work out the email from my name and the fact I work for XMLP Im sure.

Can I copy XML from one RDL file to another

Hi
I have created one report, worked on it as a prototype for a project - added datasets , params etc
I now want to start again - from a template that we have just created - with professional layout, images etc - but want to copy the datasets, parameters from the original prototype to a new report (created from the template).
Can I just copy sections of the XML from the original RDL file to the new one ?- like the Datasets and parameters sections
Regards
Greg

Hi,
Yes, you can.
If you copy less or more then need you'll see an error.

Not able to create XML from an existing relational database

Hi,
I am trying to create and xml from an existing relational database. I am not able to get any XML data, I receive "XMLTYPE()" as the result.
Here's the query -
SQL> select o.order_id, XMLELEMENT("order", XMLATTRIBUTES(o.order_id as ID)) AS "result" from order_
info o where order_id=2793;
ORDER_ID
result()
+2793+
XMLTYPE()
I was expecting to get +<order id=2793 />+ instead of XMLTYPE().
I am using -
SQLPlus: Release 9.0.1.0.1*
Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.1.0 - 64bit Production
I have also run some checks to confirm XML DB installation -
SQL> select 1 from all_users where username = 'XDB';
+1+
+1+
SQL> desc RESOURCE_VIEW;
Name                                      Null?    Type
RES                                                SYS.XMLTYPE
ANY_PATH                                           VARCHAR2(4000)
RESID                                              RAW(16)
I think, I have something wrong with installation or configuration.
Any idea about what have I done wrong here?

Works fine now. Got the result "<order ID="2793"></order>".
Thanks. :-)
