January 3, 2025 at 5:37 pmExcellent question! There used to be functionality for that here, or I’m confusing this with another forum. I’d have sworn we had that here previously.

In the zipped file you’ll find (for each project) 2 screenshots from FCP7, a straight XML export, a Batch List, and a .fcpxml conversion file.
Also made a new Library and imported all the .fcpxml files. I’m on 11, so if you’re not current you should be able to re-import the .fcpxml files into whichever version you’re running.

April 13, 2025 at 6:40 pmHi Doug, are you still able to convert old FCP Projects? If so, I’d love to take you up on the offer.

April 14, 2025 at 8:45 pmKia ora from New Zealand, Doug,
Are you still open to taking on FCP7 XML exports for total strangers?!
I have a few projects I would love to get XMLS of to take into Resolve.
I’m not sure about the messaging capability here but I’m on hugh@sundaepictures.com
Thanks
Hugh

April 14, 2025 at 9:52 pmHey Hugh,
I am indeed!
As I mentioned above to Oren, I’m out of the loop until Friday, so any XML exports would need to wait until then.

April 14, 2025 at 10:58 pmIncredible! No problem waiting at all.
What’s the best email to send to?
Thanks so much.
