Roundtripping>PPro to Lite>Finalcut xml BACK into Resolve only imports 1st clip

[Jim Bachalo]

Seems to be a problem with the way Resolve is interpreting the XML. I tried a sequence with just 1 clip. Same issue

My edits are maintained but it seems that Resolve is replacing all clips with whatever clip is left most (icon view) or top most (list view) in the Media Pool.

On import of XML I am de-selecting
‘Automatically import source clips into media pool’

since I am using low res proxys in PPro for editing.

But shouldn’t the clips should remap to their hi res counterparts?

Is this possibly a bug in handling XML? Local is the new global

Think I found the answer. When conforming the xml back into Resolve, if you have any clips selected in the Media Pool (Media tab) it seems to ‘confuse’ Resolve. Deselect ALL clips first, THEN import the xml.

Error still occurs sporadically. Any round tripping xml experts care to chime in?

This usually works for me when I’m not having a really weird bug that interprets the timecode from Premiere wrong:

Prep your sequence for color.

Create a new PP project with ONLY that one sequence.

Export XML.

Import XML to DaVinci. Select Import Automatically AND Ignore Extension.

DaVinci will ask where the media is–Point DaVinci to the folder that has the high quality files.

This seems to work with most projects.

Normally you would want to deselect ‘Import Automatically’ if you’re working in a proxy based workflow or have added media to your pool first.

Anyways,have it working mostly. Will try and post a detailed tutorial to share what I’ve learned since there are a LOT of potential areas for mistakes.
