you do know that xml you posted is a Version 5 XML.. it won’t work in any Premiere Pro Set up.
as for preset timelines, do you not have a preset folder in you premeire project setup window will many many presets for BlackMagic Design? If you’re using Aja, there’s an additional Adobe Aja installer that will give you all the presets.
you need to go through your fcp timeline and look for things like composite containers, or speed warps. Multi-Clips, etc.
Things like that have a hard time conforming in ANY high end system.And, is the FCP and PPRo on the same machine?

Also, check out your Quicktime PLayer preferences. there’s a check box for Gamma setting to match FCp 7 or legacy or something like that.
s well, when you create a quicktime, i know in the compression settings tab, is a drop down button fro Auto or none for Gamma adjust. I’d follow this path a bit to see where it leads..

yes, Davinci imports xml v5. basically the fcp workflow works, but if you’ve made the switch to Premiere, which only exports xmlv4 right now,you’re out of luck.

1. how about a better Avid MXF workflow? one that doesn’t strip out the info for reels and source file id’s.
2. Open up to more supported cards. Hey, I’d love to see support on Aja, so i don’t need to buy another card, but if all I’m doing is monitoring my picture, and not laying off to tape, do i really need the Decklink Extreme 3? i know it’s rumored that Resolve will run on the Intensity, which is all one really needs to get the digital signal to a broadcast quality monitor.
3. Accept XML v4 files as well as v5. open up the workflow with Premiere, esp since FCP is dead.
just a couple thoughts..

gary, i’m not sure i follow you then, i certainly can put my blu-ray internal, I happen to have mine external because I’d like to be able to move my blu-ray around to other machines..

“Plus, on my PC I have a Blu-ray burner, two DVD burners, and two external hard drive bays. Something else you can’t really do with a Mac Pro, but that comes in handy on a regular basis.”
seriously, i thought this was a pros and cons thread about FCP-X
you all have turned it into a Mac vs PC war.oddly though Gary, I’ve had a Blu-ray burner hooked up to my Mac Pro (2006 1.1) model for more than a year already. I also have 2 internal dvd-burners, mostly because i refuse to get rid of the old, replaced one, so i just put them into the open bays I have. I have 4 sata drives internally, and I added a PCI-E sata card to get external drives hooked up.
To top this off, I have 2 graphics card running in my machine to run Davinci Resolve. (and I don’t get driver conflicts like most PCs would).
Oh, and here’s a great one that PC cannot claim, I can run Windows 7, just as well on my Mac as I can run Mac OS X, (or even Linux), and it IS supported by Apple.
So that means for the investment of a mac pro, i get the best of all three worlds, and in my field, that means a lot.oh, and btw, while all these price comparison are being thrown around, esp about how expensive things are at Apple, who the hell ever buys RAM form Dell or HP?

sorry for being short. try page 115 in the manual.
“in Source mode the Conform page enables you to perform simple editorial functions that are useful for making the small alterations that grading sometimes requires, such as replacing media, splitting clips, adding transitions, or changing the composite modes of superimposed clips.”
-
go to the conform page and add an edit.

Kent, I recieved an email from Hans (maker of Clip finder) he asks,
“has anybody tried just changing the version number at the top of the XML file before importing into Resolve?”
almost too easy if it works
-
Kent,
i know Adobe is aware of the issue, and from what i last read, they’re working on it.
Any reason you don’t/can’t use the AAF option out of premiere? I don’t think you would need to have it reference MXF files. (so the extra DNxHD plugin might not be required).
I wonder if Clip Finder would change it for you..
