Activity Forums Adobe Premiere Pro XML woes

  • Posted by Andrew Smith on June 28, 2013 at 4:27 pm

    I am simply trying to get an xml from a sequence to go into Resolve – all R3D in the timeline of Premiere CC. I usually will check xml’s coming from premiere in FCP7 just out of habit as I have seen and heard of issues with PP xml going into Resolve. This time around I tried bringing in that xml to fcp7 and a whole project folder with bins and sequences imports into fcp.

    I was also given the PP project which I open and end up just seeing the same thing basically – I then TRIED HIGHLIGHTING THE SEQUENCE I need and exporting an XML but still the same thing happens – I will of course just make an edl or aaf i guess as an alternative BUT i want to know what is going wrong.

    What happens is it gives me the whole project in an xml instead of just that sequence I want. I am coming from the world of editing in FCP7 – yes I know I am a late adopter but I do more color grading than anything else these days. I also want to just mark in & out on the timeline and create a quicktime to use as an offline reference – basic stuff I know but I am just about to take on learning PPcc so my apologies for the 101 question. The editor gave me a reference at 23.98 and I tried conforming in Resolve to that with edl & aaf – it comes in but edit point and sections of each clip seem to be a frame or so off?? Somehow its coming of of Premiere and into Resolve off. I normally get xml’s from premiere editors and just ‘wash’ it through fcp7 to fix known issues with Premiere XML but on this project like I mentioned above that keeps creating whole projects not just the sequence I need.

    Any help would be huge!
    Thanks

    So i figured out that the sequence tab has to be selected in order to just get that sequences xml – which is a bit confusing i would say for a fcp7 user.

    The problem of the quicktime export being a frame off for each edit point and each clip itself STILL exists…not sure what is going on as both are 23.98.

    Hi Andrew,

    There’s 2 ways to export a single sequence from Premiere Pro CC.

    1. Select just the sequence in the Project panel> File> Export> Final Cut Pro XML

    2. Select the desired sequence in the Timeline panel> File> Export> Final Cut Pro XML

    Doing so should only export the assets that our in the sequence. There is a known issue however where if you have bins inside your Project that those too will be included in the XML but will come in as empty.

    Best,
