    XML from Final Cut Pro 7.0.2

    edit4all Community Member

      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?

          The only thing I can think of is to skip FCP altogether and work entirely in PP from the start.  Then getting into AE will be a breeze.

            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.
