FCP crashes immediately while importing XML

Hi,

(FCP 10.6.4 on a Mac Pro (Late 2019) with 96 GB RAM and 2 x AMD Radeon Pro W5700X 16 GB etc...)

XML files, produced in Adobe Premiere 22.6.2 and converted via SendToX, cause FCP crashes if you select saving the .fcpxml file and try to import in FCP by selecting Import > XML. If you select in SendToX "Send to FCP" option and FCP asks where to put this file, you become a file but not as it has to be. The crashes are immediately, means: just after clicking, without any delay more than 1/10 sec.

This is the first time ever, I am having such a problem.

I have to carry ca. 90 projects from Premiere to FCP and this is a disaster situation for me, so I need your help please. (You can be sure that nothing wrong is in my system or hardware etc..)

Mac Pro, macOS 12.4

Please follow terryb's advice. This way we will be able to determine if the same .fcpxml file also causes crashes on other macs or not. If it does, then it is probably something in the formation of the xml; if not, then there may be something else specific to your system contributing to the problem.

Also, I suppose that some or most of us do not have SendToX (or Premiere); hence getting one .fcpxml file from you is the only to test.
