Hi, there are some free tutorials here https://www.rippletraining.com/provideoapps.html (no affiliation).
The new speed change tutorial explains exactly what you need to know.

Why don’t you ask them to let you have a clip in their preferred format? Then you can use something like mediainfo (free) to have a good look at it or try compressor’s auto-detect feature (see the bottom of this page https://www.streaminglearningcenter.com/articles/apple-compressor—new-encoding-features.html ).

If you have fcp7 you could get him to supply you with a short clip in the codec he prefers and then try using the “copy codec” function in compressor. I forget exactly how you do it, drag the clip onto a newly created custom setting I think.

Client = the person whose opinion counts. I think that is the same in all languages.

On the sequence thing … I think you could put all the sequences together into one sequence for the purpose of dupe detection.

Just wondering if you had any success with this?

If you have the original media files that were used in the original project then he just needs to send you the project which is small and email-a-ble. You can then open that project and re-connect to the medial files that you have and you should be able to carry on working on the project. If you have re-named the original media files or if they were renamed when they were worked with before or if they are different from the ones that were used originally then you and final cut are going to have problems.
Hope this helps. Matt.
