Automation Blocks: Error with 'For Each Project Item' block and 'Type 8'/AI-extended clips

[Jared_Wmuff]

Hey @Mathias Moehl, just wanted to advise that I'm getting an error using the For Each Project Item block when reading generative AI-extended clips in the Project Panel: 'execution result:"unknown project item type 8 for item...' The block/script stops when it encounters these files, throws up the error, and there doesn't seem to be a way to ignore them.

My script needs to assess everything in a given project from the root bin, so I've built a very rough workaround using ChatGPT which moves any items like that into a 'TEMP AVOID' folder (and everything else into a TEMP folder, which is then reviewed): https://chatgpt.com/share/68e23c72-bb1c-8005-b6d2-7144fd92fb51

Just wanted to message in case you weren't aware of this, cheers (and again thanks for the amazing plug-in!)

Thanks for reporting this! I was not aware of it and will see what I can do to fix that.

I just published Automation Blocks 1.1.012 which fixes this issue. With this update, Automation Blocks will now gracefully skip over Generative Extend items and continue processing the rest of the project without interruption.

Due to current limitations in Premiere Pro’s scripting interface, full support for these items isn’t yet possible—but this update ensures your automation workflows remain stable and uninterrupted.

Thanks so much, Mathias! Just tested it and it works perfectly now.
