@pokey Which piece of software generated this XML? As @jminor said, SMPTE timecode can only be specific rates so it appears whatever is generating this is doing something invalid. To...

The enabled flag seems like a pretty good approach, from an FCP XML perspective, the nodes the enabled flag are available on are: - `track`(translates to `Track`) - `clipitem` (translates...

Good question. Looking closer, [in the spec under the enabled element](https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/documentation/AppleApplications/Reference/FinalCutPro_XML/Elements/Elements.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP30001156-TPXREF106) `sequence` is listed as a possible parent, however the `sequence` element doesn't include it in it's subelements list.
