    Posted by Joe Thevisualist on August 10, 2012 at 4:49 pm

    Here’s one for you lot, Im having trouble importing any XML into a catalog. The plan is to import the XML and create a sequence, basically im testing the XML/Sequence being “Round Tripped” from FCP7 to CatDV and vice verse. thoughts? did i leave out any pertinent info?

    thanks in advance!!

    What does “having trouble” mean exactly? Try exporting the XML from Final Cut as an .xml file and then importing it into CatDV using the Import As > Final Cut 7 XML command. Are any error messages shown?

    PS. Has something gone wrong with the COW forum? I can’t see this item in the View Posts By Newest Post view.

    What version of CatDV are you running?

    That message shouldn’t occur on a Mac and looks like you might have a corrupted preferences file. Could you send us the CatDV Error Log (accessible from the Help menu) to support@squarebox.com?
