Hey,

ich arbeite aktuell an einer Premiere Automatisierung und hoffe hier evtl. Hilfe zu bekommen.

Ich arbeite mit einer .CSV um Videos zu importieren, die dann im Ordner "Clips" platziert werden und daraufhin durch platzieren im Ordner "Subclips" zu einer Sequenz zusammen geschnitten werden. Daraufhin wird die erzeugt Sequenz an den Media Encoder weitergeleitet und das nächste Video/die nächste Zeile der .CSV wird bearbeitet.

Mein Problem aktuell ist, dass ich die Länge der einzelnen Videos benötige. Der Premiere Scripting Guide liefert hier zu bereits eine Funktion die bei mir nur teilsweise funktioniert.

Die Funktion ist folgende:


var activeSeq = app.project.activeSequence;

var durationIntro = activeSeq.videoTracks[0].clips[intro].duration.seconds;

var durationThema = activeSeq.videoTracks[0].clips[thema].duration.seconds;

Warum auch immer funktioniert es nur manchmal und wenn dann auch nur für die 1. Zeile der CSV, alle folgenden Zeilen behalten den ausgelesenen Wert der 1.Zeile.

Ich wäre natüürlich auch offen für eine Premiere freie Lösung, wodurch die Länge der Videos im einzelnen durch einem reinem JS Script ausgelesen wird.

Jedoch haben meine bisherigen Versuche zu nichts geführt.

Beispiel bzgl. Länge der Videos:

1.Video 20s
2.Video 30s
3.Video: 10s
4. Video: 15s

Die CSV ist wie folgt aufgebaut:
[#cc0000]Dateiname_introvideo1;[/#cc0000][#008000]Dateiname_themavideo1;[/#008000][#0000cc]Dateipfad zu introvideo1;[/#0000cc]Dateipfad zu themavideo1;

Hier ist meine CSV


Chen_intro_1;Thema 1;/Users/mac_nonprint/Desktop/PR-Automatisierung/Videos/Chen_intro_1.mp4;/Users/mac_nonprint/Desktop/PR-Automatisierung/Videos/Thema 1.mp4;

Sassanelli_intro_1;Thema 2;/Users/mac_nonprint/Desktop/PR-Automatisierung/Videos/Sassanelli_intro_2.mp4;/Users/mac_nonprint/Desktop/PR-Automatisierung/Videos/Thema 2.mp4;

Wosilat_intro_1;Thema 3;/Users/mac_nonprint/Desktop/PR-Automatisierung/Videos/Wosilat_intro_1.mp4;/Users/mac_nonprint/Desktop/PR-Automatisierung/Videos/Thema 3.mp4;

Hier ist meine Gesamte JS:
