After adding one of my effects to the timeline in FCP, I exported the project XML. As part of my effect's entry there are parameter value nodes containing cdata strings. I read in the XML docs that the cdata text is uuencoded, but how was the original parameter value first prepared for uuencoding? My plugin is storing data in a NSDictionary so I figured I could just take the uudecoded data, put it into a NSData object, then pass that to NSKeyedUnarchiver. When I tried that it didn't recognize the data so I now assume something else is happening. I'm trying to understand the process so that I can actually generate correct XML so that I can programmatically add the effect to the timeline and have the parameter values set up correctly.
