Export xml sequence only
Hello Everyone,
When I try to export my timeline as a xml sequence. Premoiere pro cs 5.5 exports the entire project, inclusive bins. I want to export to Resolve.
Thanks in advance

The solution I’ve heard is to create a new project and import just the sequence you want to send to Resolve, then export the XML from there. Alternatively, I believe AAF export is sequence-only.

Wow, talk about them missing the concept. Thank you for the method to do it.

Andrew how do you mean import just the track you want.
The problem is that the entire project is being exported. How do you go about loading in only the one sequence. And I guess you are talking about importing into resolve. -
What you want to do is create a new, empty Premiere project. Then you import the old project file into the new project. It will give you a prompt—say you want to import only selected sequences. Select the sequence you want to send to Resolve. When it has imported into the new Premiere project, you can export an XML file—and since this new project has only one sequence in it, only one sequence will be included in the XML.
It’s definitely a bit of a kludge. Again, it may be easier to use AAF instead.

Thank you for that detailed explanation. Now I get it. Is adobe aware of this and has this been changed in version 6. I will try the AAf.

Not sure if Adobe sees this as a bug. It would definitely be nice to have the option of exporting an entire project or just a single sequence, but full-project XML export sure is handy if you’re migrating a project between FCP and PPro.

I don’t see it as a bug either, just as a workflow they should revisit. Once again thanks for the explanation.

This current method that PPro uses of exporting the full project in XML exports is OK with Davinci Resolve. In Resolve’s “load” XML process Iin the Conform page, when you select your PPro XML file, in the initial import parameters panel that appears there is a twirl down parameter at the top which allows you to select -by Name, which sequence to import. Resolve will only load in the sequence you select. You can use tat same XML file to create multiple Session-from-different-PPro-sequences in Resolve if you desire.
Not a bug, it’s a feature!
