file path for track events

richjo100 wrote on 9/20/2004, 6:34 AM

Hello
i have imported a collection of media files into my timeline and am after a script that will scan through each clip and return the path of the media. I have messed around with the mediapool but can only get the name of the media. This is ok if I am not using subclips that I have created in the trimmer. I will be creating subclips however so ideally want to loop through the video tracks to find the path of each clip.
Is this possible?
Cheers
Richard

Find the event (assuming in the variable "evnt") and do this:

var MyTake = evnt.ActiveTake;
var MyPath = MyTake.MediaPath;

Thanks for the quick reply JetDV.
It works on events that are not subclips but on subclips I just get the subclip name; not C:/blah/blah/subclip. I really need to be able to get the name for clips and subclips.

is there a way of checking if an event is a subclip then linking back to the main clip and then getting the file path?

Thanks again

Richard
