I’m not sure if this has been discussed yet. But I was wondering where this script is inputted. or is it entered as a txt file and executed from a run script function inside of ae?

{
var myComp = app.project.activeItem;
var n = myComp.numLayers;
var myLayers = [];
var myIdx = [];
for (var i = 1; i<= n; i++){
myIdx[i-1] = i;
myLayers[i-1] = myComp.layer(i);
}

var idx;
var temp;
for (var i = 0; i < myIdx.length; i++){
idx = i + Math.floor(Math.random()*(myIdx.length - i));
temp = myIdx[i];
myIdx[i] = myIdx[idx];
myIdx[idx] = temp;
}
for (var i = 0; i < myIdx.length; i++){
myLayers[myIdx[i]-1].moveToBeginning();
}
}

I can’t remember where I saw a tutorial on exporting FCP edit decision for premiere. But basically to avoid transition problems. You can export out any fcp elements that do not translate in premiere, replace those files into your time line and the fcp export edit decision list should work fine in PP. Only having to deal with basic transitions. All you need to do then is make those exported files available for premiere linking.

It would be nice if the data for chapter points could also be translated.

Hi Michael,
If I understand what Danny is saying,you need to take the FCP export through PP import and link chapter markers from XML details.One thing you may need to check is that in PP they are coming up as Chapter markers and not just ordinary markers.In PP the green markers are just ordinary, I think by default colours. And chapter markers are red.
Another work around is baking in the chapters (exporting chapters and replacing in a new timeline) so all FX/Transistions are left as basic dissolves and cuts, XML details should be fine then.
Realise it’s been some time and you have prob solved problem. I have been seeking whether it is possible also to export FCP with usable Chpt Markers in Encore. I’ll have to try it also.
Cheers
Andre

Know this is old post, but incase some one is looking for the same answers.

Press escape in the null if parents scale somehow was set to zero. On null driving camera that is. The change scale higher than zero.

Rendering can then recommence.
Hope this is helpful. Just had the same troubles myself.

Cheers
Andre
