After importing an XML file, you recapture the source material from the original tapes using the Recapture tool.

To recapture media from tape:

1. Recapture all the source material from the original sources as indicated in the tape list. See Recapturing Media.
   NoteIf your assembled clip references media that has already been recaptured, the material does not have to be recaptured again. As well, it is recommended that you consolidate clips before recapturing. See Optimizing the Recapture of Footage Referenced in XML Files.

   If you are using NTSC or PAL DV footage in FCP, the clips will be recaptured at a different resolution in Backdraft Conform.

   FCP Resolution	Recaptured Resolution in Backdraft Conform
   NTSC DV = 720 x 480	NTSC = 720 x 486
   PAL DV = 720 x 576	PAL = 720 x 576
   DVCPRO HD - 1080i50 = 1440 x 1080	HD 1080 = 1920x1080
   DVCPRO HD - 1080i60 = 1280 x 1080	HD 1080 = 1920x1080
   DVCPRO HD 720p24 = 960 x 720	HD 720 = 1280 x 720
   DVCPRO HD 720p30 = 960 x 720	HD 720 = 1280 x 720
   DVCPRO HD 720p60 = 960 x 720	HD 720 = 1280 x 720
   HDV 1080i50 = 1440 x 1080	HD 1080 = 1920x1080
   HDV 1080i60 = 1440 x 1080	HD 1080 = 1920x1080
   HDV 720p30 = 1280 x 720	HD 720 = 1280 x 720
   OfflineRT NTSC = 320 x 240	NTSC = 720 x 486
   OfflineRT PAL = 320 x 240	PAL = 720 x 576

   After recapturing and relinking the sequence, exit the Recapture menu to see the clip in the current clip library. A new reel appears in the library. This reel is named the same as the XML file with the added suffix XML Import. Within the reel, the clip assembled from the FCP XML is named the same as the sequence in FCP.

   NoteIf you load XML files with the same name, the clips that are created from them are added to the same reel.

   You can load the reassembled clip into the timeline and proceed to tweak the effects added in FCP.
