Attempting to import Final Cut Pro .XML

Well, let's see if this works. I have a friend who edits on FCP (don't we all), and I was thrilled to see that Vegas 12 was going to support Improt from FCP. So last night I copied a media managed folder from him, so here we go... Let;s see what happens!

(my expectations are that this is going to be a straight up ClusterF*#&!)

LOL. Here is the log I got on the first IMPORT>FINAL CUT PRO .XML

The project then opened and there is nothing on the timeline, and not media present.

Did they test this as a solution at all?

Exception Message: Invalid media object.

WHOAAAA!

IT WORKED. I am amazed. This is groundbreaking!!! Here is the log for the second import. The first time I did the import I had the .XML in a folder separate from the media that was used in the project. I copied and pasted the .XML into the folder containing all the MOV and WAV files, and VIOLA! It worked. I am stunned, but I am looking at the edit exactly as my friend had it last night, without any pan information. I am missing a few pieces of information on some of the media, but all in all it was a raging success.

Now we have to work on the other way around, last night I brought over a very simple 2 media piece of editing, and FCP had a bit of a problem loading it, but this gives me more confidence to pursue it.

Congrats to Sony Team, they just made Vegas Editing much more easy to stick with!!!!!

Here is a copy and paste of the log:

Hi, importers,
Its seems there is the bug with XML import root directory - the first file name is ok, others appear with wrong file root name f.e. F:\Project\3d\Media\3morning/250_3073.mov in project manager.
Thats the serious problem if you wish to change the drive letter then all the "/" media goes offline.
Hope that bug will be fixed.
Another serious bug in Vegas rendering Apple ProRes422 material is often "no enough memory" or preview is off to black...
So, quirky and not ready to work...

Hi,

let me reignite this thread. do we know if FCP import from their latest version 10.XX.X to Vegas pro 16 or latest works. I am looking to import timeline with transitions, text, stabilisation to Vegas. no other plugins were used and nothing fancy was done on FCP.
