  How to import REDCINE-X PRO .XML timeline into FCP

  Posted by Justin Viney on February 6, 2013 at 9:50 am

  Hey there,

  I have been trying to familiarize myself with the REDCINE-X PRO, FCP workflow with RED footage. I am playing with some 4K RED ONE footage and find myself running into trouble when starting an online edit. I couldn’t find my solution on the net since everyone seems to operate differently when it comes to RED workflows so I thought I’d ask the forum myself.

  My steps here are as follows:
  (Let me know if I am doing anything wrong.)

  – Import R3D files into REDCINE-X PRO
  – Export proxies (1280×720 AppleProRes(LT) with 1/4th Debayer setting)
  – Import and edit proxies in FCP
  – Export the offline edit out as an .XML
  – Import the .XML into REDCINE-X PRO and the R3D directories.
  – Export Timeline (allclips) as QuickTime Wrappers, generate FCP .XML enabled.
  
  – Import .XML in FCP
  

  Now here is where I run into my issue. The dimensions of the sequence are all incorrect and need to be rendered, despite the settings I choose when importing the .XML. I want my online to be in 2K but I am not sure how to do that exactly. I read to use Quicktime Wrappers generated in REDCINE-X to connect the .XML but doing so I can’t seem to figure out how to configure the resolutions and adjust the debayer settings.

  Thanks for your time.

  Justin

  I’ve never worked with that stuff, but what i see is that in the upper still (Edit Preset), you have selected “1920 x 1080” (QT Wrapper), which is HD but not 2K.
  I guess you should set there 2K.

  Hey thanks for your response.

  All the settings appear to be locked when selecting QuickTime Wrapper.
