XtoCC 4+

I’m working on a television show, primarily using Adobe’s creative cloud. Some of our footage from outside is put in an offline edit by other editors using FCPX though. I purchased FCP X to have it handy for times like this, but I had no way to get their work into Premiere Pro for my final edit. They gave me their libraries, and now all I have to do is open it up in FCP X, select the events I want, and export an XML to use in Xto7. From there, I just convert it to a good ol’ fashioned FCP7 XML and import it directly for use in premiere (with the appropriate footage folder from the FCP X library). There have been a ton of updates recently in Xto7, and it has been working just fine. The only quirk I’ve had to deal with is sometimes crossfades don’t port over just right…but that’s an easy fix. Don’t expect for everything to be 100% perfect out of the box in every sequence, but it gives you a huge head start and will put everything where you need it on the timeline.

Hey , forget the snivelers that don't like it or can't figure it out. I'll clue you all in. Make sure the XML that you create lives in the same folder as the all the folders/clips/stills/audio (a master folder) and that's it. Don't expect it to do a lot of things , like time stretching, a lot of effects, ken burns and stuff like that. This is to do a edit with out the fluff and color correcting etc. Just do your edit , make the XML and pull it into Premiere. I'm using this for a client that only uses Premiere and hate premiere and can edit 100X faster in Final cut. So i'm saving myself a night mare by just buying this, making the edit and sending them the folder with the XML and files in it, and they are going to finish it of. (I shot it and understand the best shots so thats why i'm doing the rough edit FYI) . It's a life saver!! just buy it for those reasons and you are going to give it a 10 star.

I was very hesitant to buy this after reading some of the reviews. I bought it and just hoped for the best, and it worked great. I imported an 8 minute video and it only missed two clips, which were both easy to locate and replace. It brought in the audio files correctly and made it very simple. A $50 investment to save several hours of work and headache is well worth it in my eyes.
