Assertion Error: Can't import OMF from FCP

[Tom Smith]

When attempting to open an OMF generated by FCP (6 I believe) either by "import session data" or double-clicking the file, I get a dialog box with the following assertion error:

<font class="small">Code:<hr /><pre>Could not complete your request because Assertion
in "/Volumes/Development/vb_cliff/AlturaPorts/
PT4_App/MacBuild/../PtSess_lop.cpp", line
155.</pre><hr />

PT appears to be able to open the OMF file and begin reading it as several progress/activity messages are displayed before the error appears. The last status I can make out is "Reading Tracks: Track 6".

Running PTLE 7.3.1cs4, DV Toolkit 2, OS X 10.4.11 on Mac G5 Quad w/4GB RAM.

I'm completely dead in the water for my first paying gig in a long time. If anyone has any suggestions or is aware of a fix for this issue (Digi??!!) I'd really appreciate knowing about it.

As with all assertion errors, I'd give the trashing Prefs/DDB's a go. Not used OMF import myself but I've heard it can be a bit 'flaky'.
