Hi. I'm writing an AE/PR plugin and in AE to get the file path I'd call: AEGP_GetFootagePath

Is it possible to get the source file path in Premiere? I searched through the SDK pdf but it seems like only importers and exporters can access this info?

Thanks.

Source file path, of what? What sort of plug-in are you writing?

Panels (which use PPro's ExtendScript API) can get the source path, associated with any trackItem; see usage of clip.projectItem, in this function.
