  • Another little update. The script now allows for multiple scene-detected clips on one timeline.

    While many of you have probably moved on or resolved this issue in different ways, I just want to throw this out there:

    I made a script which converts an XML FCP7 file from resolve to a working PremierePro .xml. I’ve tested it on a number of files, and so far it does what I needed it to do. If anyone needs it, you can grab it here (instructions included) : https://gumroad.com/products/CUnOP

  • FYI, I’ve added an OS X and Windows app with GUI to make things easier.
    I’m curious to hear if it worked for you though.

  • I’ve done some little tests and came up with a solution in the form of a Python script.

    A little note: this will only work with scene detection done on 1 clip I think. I haven’t tried detecting multiple clips and putting those all together on one timeline in Resolve. I’ve tested it with several movies, and so far it works like a charm. I’ve verified by putting the original file on a video track above and they line up perfectly.

    Hope this helps you as much as it helps me!

  • I’m trying to get to the bottom of this and so far this works:

    Once the scene detection is done, the clips are added to the mediapool and from those a new timeline is created, go to the ‘deliver’ tab and export the clips as ‘individual clips’. Either preset on top seems to work (custom, Youtube, Premiere XML).
    The Premiere XML option will generate an .xml which can be imported in Premiere, and which will automatically import the individual clips created.

    Now, the kicker, when you select another preset, and export individual clips: go back to the ‘edit’ tab, and export the FCP7 xml. When importing this in Premiere, the same thing will happen. All the individual clips will be imported.

    So… while this seems to work, it does feel like a work-around. I’d rather have the XML which only references the original file and makes the cuts as described in that XML… instead of having to export 100s of clips and import all of those in Premiere…

    I’ll compare the XML’s generated in the ‘faulty’ one and the ‘right’ one to see if I can figure out what goes wrong there… For now though, this kind of works… But once the individual clips are exported, one might as well just load those up in Premiere and drag the whole lot in a sequence… no need for the XML anymore really…

  • I’m running into this issue and have as of yet not found any solution. Did you by any chance figure out how to solve this?
    What I did:
    Resolve:
    1. scenedetect video
    2. add cuts to mediapool
    3. switch to editing tab and add all the clips to a timeline
    4. export as .XML (FCP7)

    Premiere:
    1. Import XML
    2. Get a timeline with the correct video and cuts, but all of them starting indeed from 00:00:00:00
