View Full Version : Apple Color workflow issue... XML sends back original footage, not graded footage

Grading a feature in Color and having some problems with the roundtrip. It's broken into four timelines. The first two make it to Color just fine and when I send them back to FCP 99% of the clips are correct with a few linking back to the original (pre-graded) footage, but I can fix this manually if need be…

Timelines 3 and 4 make it over to Color and render fine, but when I try to return footage to FCP using the built-in XML roundtrip, the timelines Color generates are the SAME as the original timelines… they link ONLY to the original footage, ignoring the rendered clips entirely.

Working with Color for many years (though not that frequently) never seen anything like this... Anyone have any ideas?
