Was the other day trying to import a xml file Final Cut 7 to Premiere and I realized, As many other users that this characteristic of Premiere had stopped working when using an xml exported from the latest Final Cut, The 7. What has happened is that those of Apple have changed the structure of Las xml tags in the latest version (I guess for the Premiere can not import them) as follows:
Example
Version Final Cut 6 :
Version Final Cut 7 :
And the last label style is what gives the problem in the Premiere. Nor was much of xml, But did not seem so difficult to change that structure, Import the xml of version 7 in Dreamwaver and simplemnete by using the find and replace using regular expressions change all Las labels to make them as in version 6 Final Cut, And voila, The Premiere the imported without problems.
I then put a workflow in case anyone wants to test:
1 - export from Final Cut 7 an XML of the chosen sequence. Choose type " Apple xml interchange format, Version 4 "
2 - open the xml with Dreamwaver and go edition, Find and replace...
3 - use the parameters FOLLOWING:
Search: Current document
Seek: Source code
Seek: <(w*)(.*)/>
Replace: <$1$2>
Check the tab "using regular expression
4 - I created a search query and replacement that I posted on the internet, If you want load it directly instead of putting the previous parameters:

5 - give all and expect to replace. Depends on how long or the xml may cost a little.
6 - save the new xml with the Dreamweaver.
7 - import into the Premiere Pro CS4
All Las I've done tests have gone well, But also satisfy itself that is 100% functional as the resolution is a bit chapucerilla.
I hope you serve something.
Greetings
