Activity Forums Apple Final Cut Pro Legacy Annotation edit in FCP

  • Annotation edit in FCP

    Posted by Audrey Villiard on October 16, 2010 at 7:18 pm

    Hello,
    I have done subtitles in Annotation edit. I export these in XML files.
    In Final Cut Pro, the sequence created contained clips, the timecode is the good one, but I cannot see the words. It’s all black (even though I have exported the subtitles in white, etc.).
    Can someone help me ?

    Thank you,

    Have a look at the XML and check whether it contains text and what the color is.

    No, it doesn’t seem to contain the text.
    What should I do when I export the XML from Annotation Edit ?
    Here is a part of the XML, for example.

    Thank you Spherico,

    Hmmm,

    This is not a FCP XML.
