Hopefully they can resolve the issue or give more information to why you are getting this unvalid attribute reference.

I don't use any other programs inbetween.
Weirdly, all the full episode XMLs are badly created, but when I copied the opening sequence as a separate project, the XML worked properly... I also tried to make one of the episodes in halves, but neither half worked in X2Pro

Yes, that is the case with my projects too, I tried and it didn't import any of the 4 episode's projects.

What can I do to export a "good" XML?:)

All the media is online.
It is a TV project and it gives the same error with all 4 episode's XMLs. But for example if I try only with the opening sequence, it works fine.
Thank you for your help!

I am just going to have a conversation with one of the developers as that is an error I haven't seen before myself. One thing worth trying is double check that all the media is online in FCPX and then if it is export a new FCPXML out of FCPX as sometimes the XML creation can create a bad xml file.
I will update you as soon as I hear back from the developer :).
Many thanks,
Daniel

Thank you for the advice, unfortunately that is not the case. All media locations are added.
Any other thoughts?
All the best,
Lili

Can you check X2Pro has access to all the media locations? In the X2Pro preferences on the media locations tab, add the media locations for your media files and see if that helps.
Thanks,
Daniel

I am having the same problem:
Unable to parse FCP XML file to obtain project information
Details:
Asset Resource with ID not found
Extracting Audio
Extracting audio
Processing Audio element
Processing element AudioElement
Processing element ClipElement
Processing element GapElement
Processing element ProjectElement
Processing element SequenceElement
Processing element SpineElement
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 a Library or Event;
- Ensure that this is not an empty project (or that all audio is disabled);
X2Pro Audio Convert 4.5.7
Every suggestion is done.
I tried to make the project in halves, but both halves give the same error.
Can someone give any advice?
Attached the XML.
Thank you.

file:///Volumes/A%20Hip%20Hop%20Christmas%20Editor%2064TB/A%20Hip%20Hop%20Christmas/Audio/Pro%20Tools%20Exports/Audio%20Files/68FT01_04.wav.
This looks good to me, assuming there is a volume called "A Hip Hop Christmas Editor 64TB" mounted."
The developer can't see any issues with the references at all and thinks this might be a problem with how Pro Tools imports references audio. His only other suggestion was to not reference the audio and try embedding it into the AAF.
