You could try transcoding one of the clips you are having issues with and see if that goes through X2Pro as a separate project.

Unfortunately we can't create a fix for this as it is a MacOS issue, but we think we might have a work around. One of the developers is creating a new build of X2Pro which will add more logging to the console so that it tell us which clips the compressor is struggling to deal with. Although, you would have to transcode the clips and then add them to the project and create a new XML.
Hopefully this is an okay work around for you?

We've looked at your xml and we can't see anything wrong with it, it looks like it might be an issue with your version of MacOS, google shows lots of reports of "Error: unsupported compressor 8" with other apps when using High Sierra.
What version of MacOS are you currently using?
Would you be able to send the .txt file X2Pro creates in your destination location? If not, a screenshot of the error in X2Pro will help

this seemed to be the only way to export from the console?

I'm having the same problem with no solution in sight. I've tried 1.7 and 1.8 versions of xml and also set x2pro as a destination for export from fcpx.
I ran the system console whilst trying to add the xml to the source and this is what came up.
Also attached is the xml itself

The message is:
Unable to parse FCP XML file to obtain project information
Suggestions:
- Ensure that the file is not locked by another application and is readable;
- Ensure that this is a valid FCP XML file from a released version of FCP X;
- Ensure that this is the export of a Project, not of an Event;
- Ensure that this is not an empty project (or that all audio is disabled);
Thanks for your suggestions and help
