TitleExchange Update
Even though it’s a kind of shameless self advertisement I thought it might be worth to mention. Feel free to remove the post.
There is a new version for my TEP, which includes some full featured free helper apps (with no limitations)
One is the already mentioned XTE app which allows a (sorted by role export) of FCPX titles from an XML to STL. You also can create a chapter list file for Compressor (or other apps).
Another one is called XTI. It allows to convert a STL into an XML which can be read by FCPX.
The third one called Avid Marker Tool allows to convert an Avid marker list text file to a STL with several timing and editing features.So using the not real free TEP or some of the free conversions of the TEP light version, you can go from a lot of formats into X or the other way round.
Example: you got a .srt file from a translator. This file can be converted by the TEP light version to STL without any limitation (works with a Pro version as well). Then use the XTI app to get these titles into X.
This will work with many other formats as well.You can download the installer from: https://www.spherico.com/filmtools/TitleExchange/TitleExchangePro_SL.dmg

thanks andreas
had a quick go and had success moving subtitles out of FCPX and then across to subcaps effect in avid MC6
I then had a go of automatic duck pro export FCP for getting an OMF or AAF across to another system (the one for getting omfs out of FCPX)
suprisingly it did a good job of making the AAF that avid could read and then I just relinked via AMA to the events folder media
if you could make a way to get the FCPX titles to read out and across to the standard avid titler this may be nice for creating lower 3rds etc, also I am aware that marquee has the autotitler which may be an easier way to get the titles created, of course this would have issues with timecodes but could be useful anyway
thanks

Ben,
It’s not a problem to create a text file which can be used with the Marquee tool in Avid – but as you said you will loose TC and duration.
