Hi,

 

I'm new to premier pro development. I was wondering if what I'm trying to achieve is possible as a premier pro plugin.

I have a list of video files in a .txt file and corresponding cut times in seconds. For example, the list would look something like:

video1.mp4  23.0-45.2

video2.mp4 60.3-73.5

video3.mpr 13.2-17.3

 

Is it possible to write a plugin that would take this text file and create a new project, with each clip trimmed to the time domain specified in the list?

For this, you would typically write a script (CEP panel).

A much easier and quicker way would be using my (paid) extension Automation Blocks.

 

Here are tutorials showing how to achieve that with Automation Blocks:
