Essentially you cannot do what you want with the current version of XML. The workaround is to create the Project as a Compound Clip within the Event. That what we do with 7toX for the same reason. Once imported it can be added to a new project and broken apart, or simply opened as a timeline. Philip On Apr 19, 2012, at 5:16 AM, Valentin Truant wrote:
Hi all,
I have a small question with the final cut pro x xml import. I 'd like to import a 2 xml files, in the first one, I describe the event and they resources with asset and clips with ratings and one the second one I would like to create a sequence.
My problem is in the secondary xml, when I want to use clips from the first xml, I add in the resources a "<projectRef>" with the project unique ID but FCPX can't find it. Why is FCPX ignoring my uid ? How can I do to reference to asset from my first XML?
