So I've been trying to recover a corrupt Premiere Pro CC project for the past 3 and a half hours and I think I'm almost there. I kept getting the error "The Project appears to be damaged, it cannot be opened."
Back Story & Info
After hours of searching and trying to repair the project I stumbled upon a thread that said to use an app called "XMLWrench" to repair the raw XML file of the project.
Upon trying to open the project's XML data in XMLWrench I was greeted with complete and utter non-sense code composed of 90% random symbols and alien looking text. But, upon further research I found out that Premiere Pro CC vs CS6 stores the XML data in a some what compressed format. So what I did was add the file extension ".zip" to the end of my project and tried to extract it. Success! The extracted file was the un-compressed XML file which I was able to open and recognize as a Premiere Project.
Now here's where I need help
Now that I can import the XML file from the project into XMLWrench I'm able to scan it for errors. Apparently there appears to be only one. (Thank god, I think...). I'll add an image of the error message below along with a download link to the actually XML file to examine.
Project XML File: MEGA
Thank you!
