No Audio

PostTue Sep 11, 2012 8:07 pm

Noob question perhaps. After importing an FCP XML I don't see or hear any audio in the timeline. Audio plays fine from FCP. I have Enable Audio checked in the Project Settings. Any ideas where to start tracking this down? Something obvious I'm missing about Resolve? thanks.

ah so it seems to only respect clips with embedded audio, not distinct audio tracks. Is this by design?

Hi Gary, you may open the FCP XML File with a simple text editor and check if you see following "asset" line :

<asset id="r2" name="my movie" uid="8DA7119368C77D7ED327C14E1F187049" src="file://localhost/Users/my movie.mp4" start="0s" duration="3323318999/24000000s" hasVideo="1" hasAudio="1" audioSources="1" audioChannels="2" audioRate="48000"/>

and following block:

<clip name="my movie="6646637/48000s" format="r1" tcFormat="NDF">
<video ref="r2" duration="3322319/24000s">
<audio lane="-1" ref="r2" duration="6646637/48000s" role="dialogue" outCh="L, R"/>
</video>

If your file do not contains hasAudio="1" audioSources="1" audioChannels="2" audioRate="48000"/> or similar and do not contain the line

<audio lane="-1" ref="r2" duration="6646637/48000s" role="dialogue" outCh="L, R"/>

you might did export an XML without audio.

I am sorry, I do not know Resolve in detail, but if your XML file contains above lines then Resolve might ignoring audio for any reason. Other users report this problem before …
