The classic XML works but is not as versatile as the FCPXML format.
And with DaVinci Resolve, the pathurl has to be manually edited in the XML file because it will throw an error with:
"The clip was not found."

<pathurl>file://d:\VideoGrep\output.mp4</pathurl>

Changing the path to just <pathurl>output.mp4</pathurl> works just fine, but the video has to be in the same folder as the XML file.

Which is fine, but the audio and video are unlinked for all of the clips. When you have more than 10 to link manually, it can be really painful.
Maybe it works well in Final Cut Pro, but not with the free version of Resolve.

The imported FCPXML timelines don't have this type of problem. For example, auto-editor has a --export resolve option. It exports an FCPXML file, and all the clips are linked, as shown in this screenshot:

VideoGrep is extremely useful, but these little things make it difficult to use in a non-destructive way.

Thank you.
