Hi,

I need to supply the XML file together with Apple Pro Res 4444. In the export setting of Apple Pro Res I enable : Generate FCP-X XML and Include Framing.
But I can not find that file anywhere.

How can I export the XML together with the Pro Res?

Thanks
 
Dorian,

I don't use a mac or Final cut, but this was all I could find in the Redcine-X manual about an XML workflow.

here is the "Redcine-X Pro Operation Guide" version 39 . Its a little outdated and I don't think it includes anything about IPP2.

here is a more up to date version in html.

Here the PDF for the updated version 50 "Redcine-X Pro Operation Guide". Xml workflow starts on page 105 to page 107. I think it is about the same as version's 39.

or on RED.com's Downloads down about the middle of the page.

Thank you Rand for your explanation.
I only can go as far as RCX ver. 42 because after that there is no more support for the Red Rocket.
I saw somewhere the instruction, but I need to rename every single clip.
I have thousands of clips to work with and it would be far too time consuming.
 
Alright then Dorian,

Wish I could have been more helpful. I'll keep looking to see if I see anything else.
 
This is great Rand, thank you.
The problem now is: I don't use Final Cut. Its the company, I send the clips too.
They need the XML to work with.
I offered them to send the RMD file, but not sure if the can get the info from there.
 
Alright dorian,

Let me keep looking.

The .RMD files are for the red .R3D(Raw) files and can't be used for the transcoded ProRes files unfortunately.
 
actually the idea is following:
They get the pro res + the R3d. But they need the color grading and trimming information which is suppose to be in the XML file, because they use Final Cut.
As far as I understand, Premier can read the information of the RMD file. But not sure if Final Cut can read it the same way. That is why I offer them the RMD. Have not received a reply yet.
 
Dorian,

watch this video at from 1:40 to 2:00 minute mark and from the 2:20 minute mark to the end, and see if this helps. I think you will have to have "quicktime" installed on your computer to use that method. Redcine crashed when I tried it on my computer.

yeah, I tried both export settings: Quick Time and Apple Pro Res. With "Generate FCP-X XML" enabled.
It just exports the clip es usual, without any XML file. I also made a search, in case it saves it somewhere else, but can not find it.
 
Damn!,

thought we were on to something. Let me look somewhere else, then I will have to try again in the morning.
 
Dorian,

I will have to continue this tomorrow. Good night
 
Rand, thank you for all your suggestions!
I am still waiting from word of the Agency, they are in Germany.
they are gone for today and I will be on a trip the whole next week.
Your suggestions are very good, but this is too troublesome when you talk about thousands of clips!
I m sure Premier will work.
But I wanted something quick..........like export at the same time as the Prores. With the original File number.
I just want to know, why you have all those options when they don't work?
