Hi Rainer,
Hope you had a good party at the end of 2011:)
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 :)
As said before would be great if someone from Apple would chime in.
Regards
Andreas

Hi Andreas,
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.

Hi all and all the best for 2012,
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.
Kind regards
Andreas
