Hi All,

 

Can we change the project path of an After effects Composition from Premiere pro via extendscript?

We are trying to change the path silmilar way we change a video file path but its not working.

We can see canChangeMediaPath function returns false for compositions.

 

We are trying to relink the after effect composition to the same project which is moved to a different location. Is there any option to do this from Premiere pro scripting?

 

Thanks

No; you would need to import the Comp (and .aep) from the new location, then replace usage of the previous.

Thank you for the confirmation.

 

What about the .aegraphics files created during the MOGRT template importing?

Is there any way we can change the media path for these .aegraphics files from Premiere pro scripting?

No, not unless canChangeMediaPath() returns true (which I don't think it does, for .aegraphics files).
