what is an xmld file?

I am running the latest FC software. Whenever I try and export to XML file, it comes up as an xmld file. I have never seen this before and - annoyingly - I cannot then open this with Davinci.


Has anyone else encountered this and, if so, how did you get around it? A search on Google shows no one apparently has seen this before?


Running on a iMac and if I do previous version, it saves as XML as normal, but we lose all the grading we have done!

iMac 27″, macOS 12.0

This is a bundle, that is, a folder that is treated as a single file.

If you control click and choose Shoe Package contents you should find an actual xml file inside.


In this case you will probably do better by choosing version 1.9 of fcpxml when exporting. I think that still exports just a single file.
