How to set an Events Active Take?

Gary James wrote on 12/21/2012, 7:30 AM

I've looked all through the Sony Vegas Pro API docs, and browsed the Take object inside Microsoft Visual Studio 2010, but I don't see anything obvious that can be used to set the Active Take in an Event. Is this even possible with a script?

TrackEvent evnt = ...; // create an event

MediaStream mediaStream = .....; // read the desired media stream from media object



var activeTake = new Take(mediaStream);

evnt.Takes.Add(activeTake, true);

Thanks for the info.

The second parameter in the Takes.Add ( take ) function call does not appear to be supported in the older pre SVP 11 API. Is this the only way you know of to make the newly added Take the Active Take?

oops, I made a mistake, that's the correct code:



evnt.AddTake(activeTake, true)

That worked perfectly. Thanks.
