Unable to add Media Locations after Sonoma upgrade

[dev benegalParticipant]

Hi James,

This one also gives me the same error message. I wonder if I should re-create that pesky folder and move all the files there, and then relink them in the tineline? Seems like a brute force solution. Wonder why the XML is still “remembering / recalling” an old deleted folder.

However, I was able to select one role and export the WAV file. All other roles (when selected separately) popped up an error message.

Best wishes,

Hi Dev,

To confirm is the fcpxml you are trying to process one that was modified at 14.15 today if you looked at its details.

Many thanks.

James.

Hi James,

Yes. That’s the one. The file is titled info.xml

Hi James,

This is a Final Cut problem it seems. There’s some issue with the way it outputs an XML. If I look at the XML it still has references to files which are not in the timeline or folders. (specifically the Proxy Folder FCP created)

I’m going to ask on the FCP Discord if anyone has a solution.

Thank You

Hi James,

I am making a new Library and seeing if that helps.
Another suggestion was to make an alias of the Media Folder and rename it Proxy.

Finally, one suggestion is to have an ignore button in X2Pro.
Would that be possible as an option in the preferences?

Thank You

Hi James,
I’m back here and have not been able to resolve the issue on my Mac Studio M1 Max (Sonoma 14.7.2).

I’m unable to add Media Locations. I also see an Audio Output in the media location which I cannot clear or get rid of.
I have deleted the app and re-installed it but no luck so far.
Any suggestions?

Thank You!

Hi James,

I’ve had some success. Here’s what I did:

1. Updated to Sonoma 14.7.3
2. Restarted the Mac a few times.
3. Launched X2Pro. I was able to add Media locations, though could not change the Destination AAF folder.
4. In Final Cut 10.7.1 I created a new Library. Copied the Project (timeline) to the new library. Relinked all the offline / missing files.
5. Deleted all Generated Library Files. File>Delete Generated Library Files
6. Launched X2Pro5. Tried once more and it worked. Phew!
None of those “missing” files showed up, nor did the ghost folders.

I’m still not sure what the issue with all this was.

I’m attaching the log files if that’s of any help to you.

Best wishes,

Hi Dev,

It looks like steps 4 and 5 were the ones that made the difference, cannnot see anything in the logs. I assume you had done 4 and 5 previously before upgrading the OS ?

Many thanks.

James.
