Hello everybody
When importing XLM from FCP X into Resolve 9 (latest version with license) , I noticed that some clips on my timeline were not the ones I used.
That's THE problem.
Here is my configuration :
Mac Book pro retina 16Go RAM SSD with Lacie 10to RAID Thunderbolt
Workflow: shooting in BMCC 2K 25p raw and gopro hero 3
Import into resolve 9 then creation of LUT ITU 709 then export in proxies
Editing : FCP X (latest version) then XML export and film for reference in proxies for comparison
XML Import from FCP X into REsolve 9 and import of the reference film offline
Result : in comparison, on my new timeline, some clips are replaced by others (that I did not choose) and some are note clipped as I wanted, some are OK.
The big part of the problem is that I had clips I did not want replacing the ones I chose...
I found no solution...Help
Thanks is t's pretty urgent and it's 3 days that I've been working on this issue...

Hi, can you manually put all the clips in the media pool.
Check by looking down the tc in column if the clips that are problems all start for zero TC. If the do then u need reel name or file path or some other way for resolve to find them.
and also
try importing an XML and deselect the auto clip import.

As Peter says it sounds like you have clips (Probably the GoPro footage) with the same timecode (or no timecode). So Resolve will not know what clip to display in that slot of the edit.
You can use 5DtoRGB to add timecode to the GoPro footage.

Hi !
thanks for the help
Manually it would be very complicated because I used many clips for the movie coming from differents reels.
Then regarding TC, the fact is that is doesn't concerned GO Pro footage but BMCC Clips. Some change their place in timeline and other were replaced.
I must point out that the derushing was done properly with shotputpro 5 and all is clearly ordered and nothing was renamed.
But clips are placed in different folders in a same disc. Have I to put all the clips in a same folder and reimport all of them?
... I really have no solution.
the roundrip with FCPX was done in proxies 720p with a 25P frame rate.
Is there a bug somewhere?

I confirm this is definitely a bug!
I'm trying to make my hand ...
Decidedly, after the non-delivery within the 2K temsp BMCC and its sudden decline six months after deliveries in France and non-delivery of BMCC4K I ordered and also this bug!!
Even a technician Technical Support Consultant Blackmagic Design EMEA online not not respond since he has no ideas ...
Blackmagic starting to leave a bitter taste ....!

I don't really understand what is your actions after editing.
"Editing : FCP X (latest version) then XML export and film for reference in proxies for comparison
XML Import from FCP X into REsolve 9 and import of the reference film offline"
I never had any piece of problem doing the same thing with FCP7. Maybe someone can confirm that it works with FCPX?
or can you maybre create a new project with simple footages and do the same workflow transfer in order to see if that work? Maybe something is corrupting your current project file. It's maybe too soon to blame others.
Another solution if there are conflicts caused by different source footage in the same timeline is to edit them separatly with two different sequences in FCP, then export 2 XML and re-edit Timelines in Davinci.

Thanks for your message.
But DaVinci is not a software for editing. I made the different tests, by making two different timeline with proxy files from go pro hero 3 on one timeline and proxy files from BMCC on the other timeline.
My timelines FCPX were proper without FX or plugin or imbricated or composed clips. And I finally put all my files on the same folder in the same disc.
There is still a problem, I had many errors while importing XML on the resolve.I even tried to make the xml from another computer but the result was the same. I had to make it manually. I am angry because there is really a bug. I hope that the next version of resolve will be better...
