      Hello,

      Trying to do a basic export of an AAF file from an FCPXML file. I have put the drives with the source media in the media locations input, selected embed media and when I export the AAF the file is tiny (kbs) and not workable. I have tried all of the legacy versions of the XML and none work. I am using FCPX 11.0.1 and Mac IOS Sequoia 15.1. I have tried this with multiple different libraries on various drives and none work. The log has repeated ‘Conform rates not applied.’

      Thank you

        The message about conform rates isn’t important, it just lets you know that if you have changed speeds then you’ll need to apply the speed effect in the audio conform or change the duration of the clip used.
        any important messages which may indicate problems would be related to access to media files, if there are any then instead of browsing to the media locations (root of each media drive) try dragging/dropping the location to the media locations target instead.

          Thank you- assigning the roles have fixed this problem. Now I have the issue that the AAF fails when coming in contact with certain proxy transcoded clips- an error like this:

          The operation could not be completed
          file:///Volumes/Among%20Thieves%20/Among%20Thieves%20Export.fcpbundle/2-12-25/Transcoded%20Media/Proxy%20Media/C0048.mov

          I have tried it with nearly all the different XML options (extended, basic, audio only etc.) and with the legacy versions as well. I am hesitant to touch the source media because I have already been solving relinking problems.

          Thanks for your help,
          Trevor

            Dear Trevor,

            Could you send a picture of the actual error and could you attach a copy of the FCPXML please.

            Many thanks.

            James

                Can you drag that volume (the disk) into the Media Locations target and try again.

                Tim.

                  Thank you for your help.

                  I have restarted the software, removed the disks, and put them back in and get the same error message above. Attached is my FCPXML

                    Hi Trevor

                    There is nothing wrong with the project as we are able to generate an AAF and import it into PT and it maps on the points we checked in the timeline.

                    I think we are looking at an issue with AVFoundation and the media itself, will forward you a separate link to upload the mov in question.

                    Yours Sincerely

                    James.

                      Hi Trevor,

                      If you cannot upload the .mov, then you might want to re-encode the media into a different codec i.e. ProRes.

                      Thoughts ?

                      Yours sincerely

                      James
