Hi...
I give-up!
XML export and import works just fine, so I can
Roundtrip without problems between RCX and Lightworks
Im both ways using fcp xml (not fcpx)
The other day I had the divine idea to use edl instead,
One of those days I should have gone out for a beer instead.
Edl export and import just refuses to work.
Don't know if it's a Lightworks bug or a RCX'S but I tried
Everything I could and no solution. It's the wild west.
The reason why I suspect it's a rcx bug is that edl workflow
Normaly works in LW.
Ok, you could argue that if xml has worked well so far, why
Complicating?
But edl should work just fine too.

Do you have issues with edls in rcx?

The thing is that rcx does not allow to parameter the edl but it
Is a preset for fcp?

And no AAF export?
 
Hi Fred,

Can you explain specifically what is failing with EDL?

Are clips just not showing on import?

Thanks,
David
 
Hi David,
Thanks for your reply.
Yes,
When trying to import the EDL in RCX clips are showing off-line and have to reconnect manually.
If I try to export an EDL from RCX to LW, LW displays that the framerate is not matching the project.

That makes no sense because the file structure is untouched and the very same files are
linking perfectly fine with XML and the NLE project and R3D are both 23.98.
