Hi all, is it possible to export a frame of the sequence using the SDK, implementing what a used can do using the Export Frame command?

Thank you in advance.

Hello, Ale!

An ExtendScript script (.jsx file) or HTML5 panel (which calls ExtendScript) can do that. Please write me directly, and I'll get you a sample script (and panel) which do so.

b b b at adobe dot com

Reason for not just posting a sample script: There is a way of doing it, that would work, in 7.x. However, there is a much BETTER way of doing it in the version we <ahem> technology-previewed at NAB, which will be generally available, Really Soon Now™. Unless you're very pressed for time, we recommend you wait for the newer better way.

If .png is okay, you can just use PProPanel's exportCurrentFrameAsPNG() function:

https://github.com/Adobe-CEP/Samples/blob/master/PProPanel/jsx/PPRO/Premiere.jsx#L62

If you'd like more control, use encodeSequence(), as demonstrated in PProPanel's render() function; set the in and out points to the beginning and end of the frame you want, and use a still-related .epr file.

Hi Ale,

It should be possible using scripting.  Bruce Bullis can share more details.
