So in your case: (a) you'd put something like the below snippet in the first <clipitem> that uses the <file> ( note that the required elements of <file> are specified on this website: http://developer.apple.com/documentation/AppleApplications/Reference/FinalC… /apple_ref/doc/uid/TP30001156-TPXREF105 ) : <file id="file1"> <name>myFile> <duration> 33224 </duration> <rate><ntsc>FALSE</ntsc><timebase>30</timebase></rate> </file> (b) note that it has an id attribute named "file1" (c) in subsequent clipitems that should use the same file you can add: <file id="file1"/> (this notation is the same as saying: <file id="file1"></file>) To indicate that you're reusing the same file. Then when you reconnect the first one, the subsequent ones will also be reconnected. I am creating an XML file from scratch that I am trying to import into FCP 5. I have everything working perfectly except that when I attempt to reconnect the footage to the clips, FCP only connects the individual clips (not all instances of "Input1"). In other words, I am trying to make it so that when I reconnect the first instance of, say Input3, all the other instances of Input3 reconnect to the same file. I know it is a tag that I am missing, I just can't figure out which one. <?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?><!DOCTYPE xmeml><xmeml version='3'> <sequence> <name>Test</name>
