Description

Just noticed the FCP XML files my program is generating are no longer working with Premiere - upon importing, the media browser shows each clip with a Video In of 00;00;00;00 and a Video Out of {video duration}

PPro CC 2019 (v13.1.4):

Any ideas? Not sure if it's a bug in Premiere or with the output formatting of the FCP adapter within OTIO

Research direction

Start at the FCP XML adapter's export entry point and reproduce the reported import behavior using the reference peru.xml example in Premiere CC 2018 and 2019. Compare the generated clip in/out values with what Premiere displays; done means identifying whether the adapter output or Premiere causes the regression and recording a verified resolution.
