  FCP XML to Premiere CS5 import failure

  Posted by Adam Palmer on June 13, 2011 at 1:57 pm

  Hi,

  I’m trying to transfer a project over from Final Cut 7 to Premiere Pro CS5. I select all the clips I want, and then go to File>Export>XLM and leave the options as they are and save out the XML file.
  I close Final Cut, go into Premiere and import my XML file. It shows the import box FCP XML box but after its completes it comes up with a File Import Failure dialogue box with the error message;

  ‘The imported reported a generic error.’

  I’ve tried every type of XML version from within final cut but without any joy on both a mac and PC version of Premiere Pro.

  Any help would be very much appreciated.

  Thanks

  Adam
