Premiere Pro XML sequence import/export

Hello, 

 

Is there any documentation about the XML Premiere Pro generated when you export a sequence to XML?

 

FCP 7 has something like this https://community.adobe.com/t5/premiere-pro-discussions/quot-generic-error-quot-when-importing-fcp-xml-files/m-p/5261906

 

I've been bulldozing my way through but I cannot understand what these are generated from or with

<parameter authoringApp="PremierePro">
									<parameterid>1</parameterid>
									<name>Source Text</name>
									<hash>863fd9a3-b0c1-9d66-fac5-806400000118</hash>
									<value>AAEAAAAAAABEMyIRDAAAAAAABgAKAAQABgAAAEAAAAAAADoAEAAIAAQAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAADwA6AAAAGAAAADQAAAAAAAABeP///3z///+A////AQAAAAQAAAARAAAATWluaW9uUHJvLVJlZ3VsYXIAAAABAAAADAAAAAgADAAEAAgACAAAAFAAAAA0AAAAMAAIAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAQAMAAAAAQAAAD4/////P///wQABAAEAAAACgAAAFBhc3Nlbmdlcg0AAA==</value>
								</parameter>

 

And why there are multiple values in this one:

<parameter authoringApp="PremierePro">
									<parameterid>2</parameterid>
									<name>Transform</name>
									<IsTimeVarying>false</IsTimeVarying>
									<ParameterControlType>11</ParameterControlType>
									<LowerBound>false</LowerBound>
									<UpperBound>false</UpperBound>
									<value>-91445760000000000,false,0,0,0,0,0,0</value>
								</parameter>

Premiere Pro to FCPX

 

  • Pr projects can be exported for use in FCP by exporting as FCP XML
    • Whatever is selected in the Project Panel will be all that is exported.
    • If you want the entire project to be exported, then make sure nothing is selected in the Project Panel.
    • You must use SendToX to translate the Pr XML file for use in FCPX. I purchased it from the Mac App Store.
    • SendToX will ask for the destination FCPX library for the XML file.
    • The SendToX (formerly known as 7toX) user guide at https://intelligentassistance.com/sendtox.html has all the details on what will and won’t be imported into FCPX.
  • FCPX apparently won’t accept M2V files. Muxed MPEG2 only?
