Bring your VibeEdit highlights straight into Adobe Premiere Pro—with every clip pre-timed and every AI description added as timeline markers you can search in the Markers panel. Faster hand-off, cleaner timelines, and quicker finishing.


Requirements

  • A finished VibeEdit result (with selected clips).
  • Adobe Premiere Pro (2022 or later recommended).
  • Access to the original media files used by VibeEdit.

Step 1 — Export XML from VibeEdit

  1. Open your VibeEdit project and go to the results page for the cut you want to finish in Premiere.
  2. Click Export and choose XML (Premiere/Final Cut).
  3. Save the XML file to a convenient location (same drive as your media is best).
  4. (Optional) If you changed media locations since the project was created, note the new folder path—you may be prompted to relink later.

Step 2 — Import into Premiere Pro

  1. In Premiere Pro, go to File → Import… and select the XML you exported from VibeEdit.
  2. When prompted, choose how to handle sequences (usually “Create New Project Items” is fine).
  3. If Premiere can’t find media, follow the Relink dialog to point to your original files.
  4. Open the imported Sequence. Press M or go to Window → Markers to view AI descriptions as timeline markers.

What gets exported

  • Sequence with all selected clips in order.
  • Clip In/Out points exactly matching your VibeEdit selections.
  • Markers carrying AI descriptions/tags (visible in the Markers panel and on the timeline).
  • Frame rate and resolution metadata to match your source.

Verify your timeline

  1. Scrub through the imported Sequence and confirm cuts line up with your VibeEdit preview.
  2. Open Window → Markers to see descriptions. Click a marker to jump to that moment.
  3. If needed, trim, ripple, or add transitions—your base timing is already set.

Pro tips

  • Use the Markers panel search to filter by description words (e.g., “goal”, “intro”, “callout”).
  • Colour-label markers (right-click a marker) to group beats or editorial actions.
  • Want a shorter or alternate version? Duplicate the imported sequence and edit freely—your XML import remains intact.

Troubleshooting

Premiere can’t find the media

  1. In the Relink dialog, choose Locate and point to the folder containing the original files.
  2. Enable Relink others automatically to fix remaining items faster.
  3. Ensure file names and extensions match the originals used by VibeEdit.

Markers didn’t appear

  1. Make sure you opened the imported sequence, not the raw clip.
  2. Go to Window → Markers and verify the panel is visible.
  3. Zoom in on the timeline; markers appear on the sequence ruler and can be small at wide zooms.

Timing seems off

  1. Check the Sequence frame rate matches your source (right-click sequence → Sequence Settings).
  2. Confirm your clips weren’t interpreted at a different fps (right-click clip → Modify → Interpret Footage).
  3. Re-export XML from VibeEdit if you changed project fps after the initial render.

FAQ

Can I export only some of the clips to XML?
Yes. In VibeEdit, select the clips you want included before exporting.

Does audio come along with the video?
Yes. Premiere Pro references the audio from the source file—no separate audio export needed.

Can I keep the marker descriptions when I duplicate the sequence?
Yes. Duplicated sequences retain markers and descriptions.

Which Premiere versions are supported?
Any modern Premiere Pro that supports Final Cut Pro XML imports (2022+ recommended).
