P: Cannot import my XML timeline from davinci back into premiere

[Gorilla_pee28978096jrid]

Pretty simple problem that i dont have an answer for and could use some help. ive graded my timeline in davinci and have exported such as an xml timeline, now when trying to import it gets stuck at 0% forever . any ideas what could be going on?

Good recap Andrew. Yes, I dropped in from Win11 file explorer.

Attempting to import an XML from Resolve -- Premiere is hanging on the "importing files" dialog.  confirmed multiple times, hangs for over 10 minutes.  

the system has not frozen, however, and one can still click cancel and be sent immediatley back to whatever the state the project was in before trying to bring in the xml timeline.  In this case, a totally blank project. 

The same xml imports just fine into v 24.6.3, as I've been doing this workflow since about 2015 or so. 

Any ideas?  Pretty devastating issue for me, and will keep me on 24.6.3.  

This is on Windows 11 22631.4317

(it hangs up on this dialog box)

and confirmed the issue with multiple XMLs that work in 24.6.3, and hang up in v25.

We believe we've already fixed this issue; does the current PPro beta build successfully import the XML?

[eric27444038ugwg]

unsure, never downloaded a beta, have always stuck with stable releases via the CC app.  will look into how to do that, thanks much.

I updated to the latest Beta version and now I'm stuck at importing an XML file.

Quick background. I am using a custom app to collate all of my clips and generate XML for that. Been doing this for years without any problem. But today, when I updated PR, I am stuck at importing the files.

Since the latest update, I have been experiencing the same issue. Additionally, it is not possible to import other projects or timelines from project files.

This seems to be an known issue. Several users have reported this.

I can reproduce this bug.

Moved to beta forum.

[Bruce Bullis]

Bizarre; multiple users have confirmed that the current (25.1) beta solves the issue.

confirming : you see the same behavior in 25.0 official builds, AND the 25.1 beta?

[eric27444038ugwg]

ok, can confirm the beta indeed fixed this issue.

Hello everyone!
Updating Premiere Pro to the latest version October 2024 update (25.0) I encountered a problem that Premiere Pro cannot import an XML file after PluralEyes synchronization.
Everything hangs on the Importing Files window
Maybe someone knows how to solve this problem?
And yes, we pay Adobe a lot of money, is it really impossible to make the basic tools of Premiere Pro so that they work normally????

Of course, I would use the integrated synchronization by sound, but in Premiere Pro this functionality is implemented just terribly, as well as many other things.

Hello! I am trying to import a file to my project, and the import window doesn't appear. It disables everything else as if a window is open, but it isn't there. (Note I only have one screen so it's not like it's on another monitor.) I have to keep closing it down with the task manager. I appreciate the help with this. Thank you!

[timlonghurst]

Same problem here. Import filea progress just hangs and never completes. This is the live v25.0 build 61.

[Victor30910821p4q5]

No offense but if this is the best update of 2024 from Adobe, its really dissapointing. But my main problem is when i try to import a XML sequence from Davinci because Davinci its better for color in all the aspects. In premiere, its stay in the "Import Files" window and its a problem when i need to finish in time. No big deal,  no big sequence like 20 clip, 1 minute, 4k, 23fps, only color, no slowmo, no transitions, no audio, nothing. In the cracked version of my friend, yeah it work and so fast. Idk if i need to go to the 2024 ver again. HELP.

Have same issue to import xml file, but in my case it is xml from pluraleyes.

My PP just stack on import files window

[el hombreorquesta]

Hi, same problem but sometimes if you "drag" your file from the folder "explorer-finder" it works!

What is incredible is the problem is with psd files, and the issue with .mxf files...

These are not tiny bugs, we are talking about structural things.

Have a good day.

[bbb_999]

Already fixed in current beta.

[Lee28513859g2cu]

I have the same problem. I think the Premier Pro development staff is very crowded, I don't understand why this error was left before release : )

[sillasbernardo]

I'm not using beta version, I'm using the 25.0 version already released. Since I don't use beta version for production, I'll wait until the next release and check if the bug is fixed. Thank you.

Hi @ck_rocks,

Thanks for the message. Is it possible to show us a screen movie of this issue? Can the team have more information? See, How do I write a bug report?

I hope we can help you. Sorry for the problem.

Thanks,
Kevin

By the way, PSD files are also not importable if it's done via the context Import menu in the Project bin, but I think people have already filed these reports somewhere here, because there are dozens of complaints on Reddit about it

There is certainly an issue with the project bin which used to scroll in the previous builds, please, see this message @Bruce Bullis

[ck_rocks]

Hello!

There is no screen shot to show you because nothing appears. That's the
problem. Seems to be hit and miss if the import window appears or not.
Since right clicking in the PROJECT window isn't working, I ended up doing
a work around by using the old fashioned way by clicking FILE>IMPORT. That
worked.

Thanks!

CK

The problem (which is with the import progress dialog) is already fixed, in current PPro beta builds.
