The issue 3609, has been resolved in the current release 2.1.9 have you managed to upgrade to this version, and we would be very grateful if you could confirm that it is now working well for you.
Yours Sincerely

Replacing the compound clip should allow you to work around the issue. Did you ever try the "discard transitions" option in X2Pro, or was that not a suitable option?
This issue has been assigned to support ticket number TS3609 in our system, and it is being looked at.

Thank you for the reply. Ironically, I got it to work. I'm not sure how, but now as I've made some changed I am coming up against the same issue. I'll try replacing the clip with the original media instead of the compound and see where that gets me.
Thanks

On investigation, it's not related to the clip, but actually related to the layout of the clips in your FCP X project.
At 01:16:40:19 (4605.39 seconds in) there is a 1 second transition to a compound clip called "The Race Football w Jan", the section of the compound clip that has been used starts with 3 frames (0.125 seconds) of a synchronized clip called "Football Jan - 9296" which in turn uses the audio clip "STE-039" (the one which you provided). It is likely that this is not the only occurrence of this layout in your project, which would explain why you still get similar errors even when you remove that clip from your project.
In FCP X, the transition is applied to a compound clip so there is no problem here, but AAF has no concept of compound clips, and only supports transitions where the clip that is being transitioned to or from has enough media to cover the length of the transition.
In the situation mentioned above, there is not enough of the clip to apply apply the transition to. In this situation X2Pro should discard the transition, but for some reason it isn't, and is reporting an error when it tries to apply the transition. This is a newly discovered bug in X2Pro and we are now looking into why it is happening how to fix it.
You should be able to convert your project by choosing to manually "discard transitions". This option is under the general tab of the preferences window. This will discard all transitions in your project so it is not an ideal solution, but it may help, at least until we are able to get a bug fix out.

The issue is not necessarily with the clip, but that clip is the first one that X2Pro comes across, and then it gives up.
The clip was not attached to your post. Perhaps it was too large to attach to a forum post? Do you have any other way of providing the wav? Would you like me to PM you with FTP details?

I just updated to 2.1.6. I still have the same issue. I'm going to attach the audio clip, but I did try extracting the clip from the project, and the issue still persisted. It seems strange to me that that one clip of so many in the film would be an issue.
Here's the latest.

Sorry to hear you are having problems.
What version of X2Pro are you using? Is it version 2.1.6?
If not, can you please try again with this version? and let me know the results?
The clip that X2Pro is having problems with is: "/Volumes/Seagate Backup Plus Drive/Time to Shine/Day 15 Cemetary and Flashbacks Audio from Race Opening and First Hospital Visit/Audio/STEREO/FOLDER01/STE-039.wav" which is a ~37 second clip. Would you be able to provide that clip for us to look at?

When I opened my console, I got a litter of error reports, including, not supporting filters, and not supporting retiming.
I trying to export an entire film that has been pieced together from a # of different FCPX Projects. How do I get this done?
Thanks

Thank you. I have emailed you with FTP details, hopefully (if you manage to upload it tonight) I will be able to investigate the clip tomorrow morning.

I would be great if we could examine this clip and even try running it though a special version of X2Pro in our lab, but looking at the duration of this clip (01:42:09.7), I calculate that it is probably around 500MB so you may not be able to provide this. If you are able to, I can provide FTP details for you in a private email?
Alternatively perhaps you could tell me a little about this clip? For example how many audio channels, how it was recorded, what it was recorded on, anything else unusual about it. Also it would be great if you could select this clip in FCP X and get some screengrabs of the info panel so we can see some details about the clip?
