Re: OnLocation XML in FCP

Hi Craig,
The xml file that's created when you export from OnLocation is simply a list of the clips that you exported. It contains neither content (i.e., video) nor any metadata about them.
Exporting should copy the clips in question to the Clips folder that lives inside the same folder as the xml file. The metadata is inside the copied clip or, in the case of HDV/M2T clips, in a sidecar file.

I haven't gone hunting for myself, but I'll be surprise--nay, astonished--if FCP shows the markers that you added in OnLocation. To the best of my knowledge, FCP does not read any XMP metadata.
