69.1.1.1 APPLE FCP EXPORT XML

Export Scope
The APPLE FCP XML export allows the exporting of multiple XML files containing data related to asset-linked files (from Final Cut Pro systems). Exported files would be named as the video file but with an. XML extension. Please note that this format is a widely used standard for international content delivery.

Export parameters
This Export allows the following parameters to be set:
Export_-_Standard_-_APPLE_FCP_EXPORT_XML

Filename - For each asset, one file would be exported and named in the following format: [asset-ID]. XML
Export Path - Indicate the path to which the exported file would be placed.
Export Data - Open the Configure Export window to specify the days to be exported and the frequency of exporting.

Launch the Export
Once all parameters are correctly set, press the [Export] button to launch the export operation.

Scheduling related Export
This automatic Export is based on Etere Scheduling's manual Export EXPORT\STANDARD\APPLEFCPXML; therefore, required export-specific parameters are unavailable here but must be configured in the manual Export.
