Flame Premium supports both FCP 7 and FCP X file formats.
NoteTo simplify the conform process, create the FCP XML project on the workstation running Flame Premium. And when exporting the FCP XML, save the FCP XML to the root of the media used in that timeline: the media should either
be with the FCP XML, or within a folder alongside the FCP XML.
To import a sequence using the MediaHub:
- Click the MediaHub tab.
- Review the Sequence Import Options. Pay attention to the following options:
- Preferred Media: If offline intermediates were used during the offline editing, decide now whether you wish to relink to the
original media or to those offline intermediates.
- Search and Import Files: Enable if you want to import the linked media.
- Use Filename: For the best results, enable only this option. Disable Use Timecode, Use Tape, Use UMID, Use Resolution, and
Use Framerate.
- Using the file browser, navigate to the FCP XML sequence to import.
- Drag the file from the browser to the Media Library.
Flame Premium converts the FCP XML to its timeline format, and imports the linked media using the Search Options as match criteria. The
media itself is imported using the option file format options defined in the Format Specific Options tab.
