Your measures more or less confirmes what Alex and Bruce got and I got on my personal machine - though it's much faster than we got on other machines. Good thing you mentioned is the 'semi-responsive'. Me and other in our small circle did see that as well - and it seems to 'swap over' to other apps which are open at the same time. If you say "Clearly your sequence is of a magnitude that FCP X is not designed for." it's a thing I don't understand. The original timing and amount of subtitles do come from a documentary made in FCP7. I just changed all text paragraphs to 'Title 3', converted the XMEML to FCPXML, imported it and exported it again to make sure it got the right (original FCPX) format. It's only a text from an ~1h11m docu. With the XML even without video or any effects? Did you mean that an 1h11m docu with subtitles is not possible in FCPX :) importing your file took 9 minutes on a 4 Core Mac Pro with 8GB of RAM, then FCPX took another 4 minutes to figure out that all items needed to be rendered. After all that FCP becomes semi-responsive. Clearly your sequence is of a magnitude that FCP X is not designed for. With the very few XML tools I did for FCPX, we had some tests here and with a few of my customers importing and exporting subtitles. Exporting is easy, fast but not really very satisfactory as there are options missing for style etc and user settings within the resulting XML. Importing seems to be very slow on the machines where the import was tested. But those machines we used weren't the latest and sometimes there might have been not enough RAM installed. So if anybody finds the time to import the attached XMLand do some bench test it would be great. Having some values from more people maybe would help to help my (and Apple maybe as well) to make XML handling better. The XML contains titles only (about 1000 using a build in generator and all of them do have the same text - except the one or other does have 2 paragraphs with the same text) which are exported directly from FCPX - there is no modification made to the XML. Importing the XML will create a new empty event on the disk you choose and a new project file. _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.
