Sharing FCPX Event (10.4.6) with previous version (10.3)

[Thpriest]

I have to share FCPX event with another editor who has 10.3. Any idea how to share an event/project with a previous version? I have found a few people mentioning XML and eliminating some info in text edit but that sounds like trouble!

Thanks

You could just export the whole library as xml but might have to choose the xml-version 1.7 instead of 1.8 (or 1.6 instead of 1.7) in the export window. I dont know why you‘d need to edit anything in textedit. Or am I missing something?

Thanks Michi. 

I read that people were doing that (eliminating bits that weren't compatible). No way I'd do that!

I'll try the XML

I think if you choose the second latest xml-version there should be no compatibility issues. I’d assume the option to export in older xml-versions is there for that scenario you have to manage now. I hope it works out well..
