  Need to open an FCP 6 file in FCP 5

  Posted by Mike Throck on January 11, 2010 at 8:30 pm

  I know I can’t just open an FCP 6 file in FCP 5, but is there any sort of XML export I can import into FCP 5?

  I don’t have any special transitions or plugins being used in the project.

  Just export an XML from FCP 6, version 3 if you are going to 5.1, or version 2 if you are going to FCP 5.0.

  #46 – Supported XML versions

  Shane’s Stock Answer #46 – Final Cut Pro and versions of XML it supports

  FCP4 supports XML version 1 only
  FCP5 supports XML versions 1 and 2
  FCP5.1 supports XML versions 1, 2 and 3
  FCP6 supports XML versions 1, 2, 3 and 4
  FCP7 supports XML versions 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5.
