I assume this person on FCP 6.x ?

There were some cases where illegal characters could get into the XML output causing it to not reimport. So far as I am aware these issues were fixed in FCP 7.

In some cases the offending characters are control characters. If you are familiar with the command line, the easiest way to find this is with an old-fashioned editor like 'vi'. (Most GUI editors tend to be entirely too helpful and do not display such characters at all.)

An alternative is to use another command line tool 'xmllint' and see if it complains about anything.

Hi List,

I've got a customer with a strange situation. He exports an XML file of his sequence, but the XML won't reimport back into FCP: you get the critical error and general error dialogs.

Could this be caused by a corrupt sequence or a problematic clip in the sequence?

Greg.
