Hi guys,
Have anyone heard of a utility to convert FCP .xml or .edl binary files, to text edl files VP10 would open, and interpret correctly?
This is probably a lame question, as I guess were it so easy I'd already know something like this exists - but am asking, anyway.
The reason is someone asked me to complete projects that consist of:
- source files
- .fcp project file
-. xml / .edl Editing Decisions Lists
Of course I can start from scratch in Vegas, but it'd be nice to see the preliminary cuts done by the originator; these are multi-camera music film projects and the person who handed them over to me says the first cuts were done following instructions from a person knowing the musical pieces recorded (so, takes are already chosen of e.g. cello sections when it's about to come in, or a soloist when he takes over, etc.).
TIA for any help
Piotr
