Did the explanation and suggestions in the "Referencing Audio" topic help you get past this error?
Those suggestions are as follows:
Those suggestions are as follows:
- Uncheck the option to "Reference WAV files in place" (this is the default setting). This will mean all audio is embedded in the AAF file. The AAF file will be larger than if you were to reference the WAV files, but it will be much easier to open in Pro Tools because you won't have manually link clips to WAV files when you open the AAF. It will also be easier to send the AAF elsewhere for finishing because it will contain all the audio and your project in a single file.
- Under "Handling media that can't be referenced" in the preferences, choose to "Embed the media, optionally trimming" (this is the default setting). With this option selected, audio that can be referenced will be, and all other audio will be embedded in the AAF. This will ensure that Pro Tools or any other DAW is able to access all the audio that you have used in your project.
- If your audio is all WAV, but some/all of the WAV files are multi-channel and you know that your DAW can handle multi-channel referenced WAV files (Pro Tools can’t), you can change a setting in the X2Pro preferences to “Reference multi-channel WAV files”. You should only use this option if you know that your DAW supports multi channel WAV files. Pro Tools 10 does not.
- If your project contains audio from a mix of WAVs and other file types (even if the audio from non-WAV files is silent), but you are only interested in the WAV audio; disable all the non-wav audio in your FCP X project before exporting the FCPXML and set X2Pro to “Discard disabled clips”

Hi Jeremy,
First of all I apologize! I didn't see the rules on the page where I posted my question- I didn't see them until I saw your reply and realized how poorly I did following them. That was not intentional, sorry about that! XML is now attached. I also see in your rules that there is an explanation I should read- reading that now! Sorry again- I don't mean to break the rules!

I'm getting an error that doesn't mean anything to me. I've used X2Pro before to convert XML to AAF files but this time it isn't working! Error message attached. Thank you so much to anyone who can help me, I'm at a loss.
