Unable to import .fcpxmld file into Final Cut Pro

I made a few tests with the xml.

It seems tha the problem is with the asset "r149".

I don't know what it's supposed to be, but it looks different from all the others.

All that it has is this line:

         <asset id="r149" uid="46F73DFFFDA6EB70998432ADCECCDA0A"/>

All other assets have other data like "name", "start", etc. This one is different. It is, however "used" further down the document.

I tried an experiment.

I removed the following seven lines where that asset is referred to - starting at line 5924:

            <clip name="A014_08010810_C202" start="73627100/2500s" duration="207400/2500s" format="r148" tcFormat="NDF" modDate="2023-05-05 21:04:18 +0100">
                <adjust-colorConform enabled="1" autoOrManual="manual" conformType="conformNone" peakNitsOfPQSource="1000" peakNitsOfSDRToPQSource="203"/>
                <video ref="r149" offset="73627100/2500s" start="73627100/2500s" duration="207400/2500s">
                    <adjust-colorConform enabled="1" autoOrManual="manual" conformType="conformNone" peakNitsOfPQSource="1000" peakNitsOfSDRToPQSource="203"/>
                    <audio ref="r149" lane="-1" offset="21204604800/720000s" start="21204604800/720000s" duration="59731200/720000s" role="dialogue.dialogue-1" srcCh="1, 2"/>
                </video>
            </clip>

Then I removed the line above (it was 2953):

         <asset id="r149" uid="46F73DFFFDA6EB70998432ADCECCDA0A"/>

After that, the xml imported with only a warning...

No guarantees, and of course no idea why this happened in the first place.

What application and version produced this file?

Could you post the XMLD somewhere like WeTransfer or Dropbox and leave a link here. It will likely be removed but will be seen in email notifications.

The version indicated in the xml is 1.11, so it is supposedly the current one.

I will have a look at it to see if I can figure out where the issue appears and try to make sense of it.

FWIW, here is how you can open the actual xml in a text editor:

1) In Finder, control-click and choose Show Package Contents

2) Inside, control-click on the Info.fcpxml and choose Open With and select the desired text editor (I use TextMate, but you could use BBEdit or even TextEdit if you like).

but it looks different from all the others.

Luis, you found it very well, it's amazing!👍 I couldn't find the error part.😅
