Automation Blocks - Get Audio Tracks of Project Item

Question

Hi, ​@Mathias Moehl Is there a way I can script a ‘get audio tracks of project item’. It’s not a built in block, but I see the API has a get audio tracks code.I’m still struggling with the custom-code block, but I’ll get there some day.The goal here is to identify project items that have 10 channel audio (or don’t when they should).

​@Mathias Moehl,Got it! With help from ChatGPT. There’s a much simpler version of this, but this one bundles in both the audio type and the number of channels…(PS - Funny story, that sample code you linked me to…you created that as a response to a question I had over a year ago about changing audio channels of a clip to dual mono)

audio channels are not implemented in the blocks, but you can access the channel mapping with the Execute Code block. I have sample code to set the channel mapping:
https://docs.mamoworld.com/automation-blocks/block-reference/prOther#projectitem-audio-channel-mappings

The Audio Channel Mapping is documented here:
https://ppro-scripting.docsforadobe.dev/other/audiochannelmapping/?h=#audiochannelmappingaudiochannelstype

Maybe getAudioChannelMapping.audioChannelsType is what you need?
