Hi all,

I still got some trouble to calculate time with FCPX XMLs

Below an example (or better a part of an FCPXML)

...

</clip>
...

Assuming that the 'offset' describes the offset of a clip or title from the beginning of a sequence in seconds, the offset of the titles seems to be about 8:xm:xs:xf when converted to timecode. The timeline shows 0:3:xm:xf as timecode for the titles.
Unfortunately this calculation error is not constant with the different clips, for some they are correct for others not.

So what I'm doing wrong? Any advice or help is appriciated.
